I have this buddy . . . great guy, very moral, polite, friendly, etc. He's dating an amazing girl, they're basically perfect together, and madly in love. They live approximately 3000 miles from each other, so during the summer they won't be together. His exact words: "I love this girl - she's amazing. I mean, over the summer i might cheat on her, but she's still the girl for me. Look at it like this: she's there, I'm here, and ish happens - it doesn't mean i don't care."
So no commentary on if he's right or wrong - he's a great kid, madly in love . . . but also very realistic about his limitations as a male. It's the old "well, if she was laying in my bed naked, i guess so" question - and many guys don't equate hooking up w/ someone they don't care about with showing disrespect to girls they do care about. Tough situation - but it totally depends on the guy, the situation, etc. If he loves ya, then he does - and don't worry about anything else, because he isn't! ; )
