The advent of social networking has opened the door to easier infidelity. With a few clicks, a person can access many single or available people in a specific geographic area. It is not unusual for spouses to maintain sites or profiles that show a side of themselves that their spouse rarely sees. Since many businesses now have pages on those sites, it is becoming more common for people to spend time on the social network sites, even at work. Since they do this at work, there is little suspicion that they may be crossing the line into prowling for a paramour.
Besides being a way to make infidelity easier, they are also make it easier for people to get caught and prosecuted for their actions. Lawyers find the social networking sites a treasure trove of information that helps them in their cases.
So the next time you decide to go trolling for someone on MySpace or Facebook, remember that the ease of social contact, like the door, swings both ways. The social network sites make affairs easier to start, but also make it easier to catch.
