I think you are missing a lot of variables, and I don't see how you can reach a conclusion of that sort with any degree of certainty when you lack such a large amount of information. Aren't you discounting love (for not just my wife, but my kids), level of commitment, deep-seated core-beliefs (IE morality), the Optimus Engine, free will & my personal self-efficacy regarding willpower to say "No thanks," not-to-mention many other factors that would have to be discussed in the Chatterbox.

For the sake of argument, do you believe (if you created such a subliminal) that you could cause someone to commit murder? Because to me, though I enjoy the attention of a woman and checking out a nice ass, stepping out on my wife - feeling the way I feel about her - is akin to my desire to murder someone in a planned/calculated way. Perhaps, using this analogy, you would equate the possibility of having an affair in this case to voluntary manslaughter? An intentional act of passion, in the moment, without prior intent?

Is there any possibility that a statement could be added to DMSI to protect those in valued relationships - one that wouldn't affect those not in a relationship, or a relationship they don't give a shit about? Perhaps a statement to the effect that the user's partner (if valued) would be willing to share, be forgiving, and remove/lessen fear of loss? I think most people see "cheating" as losing someone to another - emotionally, physically, whatever. Just throwing that possibility out there.

I'm not the kind of person that wants to operate from a place of denial. I really am running this subliminal to heal from neediness, increase my internal self-image, and rid myself of woman-related validation issues. I also, honestly, feel closer to my wife than when I started DMSI. I'm not giving false feedback when I say our relationship is better. If we fight, it's usually during a period of high resistance and/or stress on my part, or because I'm not satisfied with my career path. I'm the hothead in the relationship. I can be a real asshole, and say the meanest shit I can think of - seeing the weakest part of a person, the real hot-button issues, and press on it with a red-hot poker. "You always go for the jugular," I've been told. Anyway, if my marriage ever failed, I fear it'd be from my ability to be a world-class jerk than doing anything to betray my wife.

EDIT: No rush on a response, especially if you're in work flow. Whenever is cool.

• SIL was very bossy with BIL. He may as well have been bent over the table taking it up the tailpipe. Very beta, poor guy.
  
• My wife told my BIL "You're so funny!" about 5 times. Odd, and noticable.
  
• I commented on my BIL's beard. Immediately mine was pointed out as the much better beard, neatly trimmed, by both women. BIL irritated.
  
• SIL engaged me in convo when she realized I wouldn't be going out of my way to do the same.
  
• Caught SIL eyeing me 3 times. Each time, I could see she had been trying not to get caught. Internally, I had no reaction emotionally.
  
• Spent the movie consciously sniping, lol - SIL got...squirmy.

As my SIL was eating hers, she stops, looks at me and says, "RTB, do you want to try my pie?" I smiled and said, "Yes, I would." So not only did she share food with me, which you all know is a big indicator of interest and comfort, but the way she asked was a direct insinuation - well, if you have a sick mind like me, anyway! Haha.
