Lynn didn't start to learn that until she lost everything and had to start over. I don't know for sure, but I don't think Jerry ever did learn it because he was never was forced to take any share of the responsibility for what Lynn did, so he had the easy out luxury of sitting back and blaming his misfortune and happiness on someone else.

I have no doubt that Lynette would have done everything she could to make things work out if she and Jerry would have stuck it out, but I don't know if they would have ever been able to learn the principals they needed to if they had stayed together. The best thing for both of them was probably to divorce.

I just wish Jerry would have risen above the thing. He was the one who wanted out, but I think he failed to learn that we control our happiness in life only by what WE do, not by what others do for us.

I think Ted as a person is more committed to the core items that make a relationship survive and work well. Those root elements of communication trust and respect for each other need to be there first, before a test like this comes up. A couple has to at least be committed to the principal of learning and growing, and not casting blame in order to open the door for excitement and any sense of sexual adventure, whether they maintain total fidelity in their marriage or open their relationship up to others.

*The End*

"P.S. Like I said above, I'm particularly interested in the woman's point of view, but if any reader would enjoy seeing your fantasy or story developed with that in mind, please contact me with a way to reply to you. If no one's interested then that's OK and I'll take a rest for a while. It's exhausting work to try to develop a story with a message, and sometimes it's not terribly pleasant and rewarding. Thanks for your interest."
