Cheaters never prosper...

Dating your coworker is one of those things that you're never supposed to do. It's even stupider when that coworker has a significant other that (s)he is moving in with and who wants to marry him/her in the near future.

Yeah, it's just a stupid summer fling for the two people in my clerkship program that I know are involved with each other. However, the woman's boyfriend was here only 2 weeks ago. He moved all of her stuff into his apartment this week while she was out here galavanting about with her new flame. Being pretty only lets you get away with some stuff, not with murder. Looks like she's going to have to find a new place once she gets back to the East Coast, or her boyfriend's more desperate than he seems. I just hope for his sake that he doesn't get a nice collection of STDs as a constant reminder of his future ex-girlfriend.

Not like the woman is the only guilty party. If someone has a significant other, that person should automatically be off-limits. I don't care how on the rocks or how open that relationship is, people who are trying to get some on the side shouldn't be touched with a ten-foot pole. Not only are you guilty of harming an innocent person, but if the person you're messing around with is willing to hop into bed with you, who knows how many other people are hopping into bed with that person as well.

Cheating is a bad idea, especially with a coworker because there's no way something like that can remain a secret indefinitely when there are people watching your interactions with one another on a daily basis.
