Could DSMI v2.2 fix this?

@RTBoss,

That is a very good point! There is also self-trust. I can't tell you how many times I've heard women talk about a man they like and say to their friends "I just don't trust myself with him."

But yes, trust is a good one. That may be one of the missing elements.

The issue - if it is trust - would be self trust on her part, which is based in fear of something. Most of the time, it is fear of the social or religious consequences of her desired course of actions. E.g., "acting like a ***** in public".

She would also need to trust, then, that the person she chooses to sleep with will not go blabbing that she's a *****, or that he is indeed so high value it would be worth it.

My wife's sister (married) has talked down about cheaters in the past. Then one day she's over at my house watching the CMAs. Luke Bryan was singing. My sister-in-law says, right in front of her husband (then boyfriend), "If I ever did cheat, he could get me to do it." He just nodded in agreement, as if he acknowledged he understood that would be okay.

The idea is that he believes that either it will never happen, or that it's justified somehow (maybe he would do the same thing for Drew Barrymore, for example).

My girlfriend does the same thing, "Oh, Luke Bryan! Swoon, take me! Oh, but baby, I would never cheat on you, he's never going to see me, and he's married."

Well she knows the rules, and she knows I don't care if it's Luke Bryan or the garbage man.
