Note to self -- remember the concept of "plausible deniability."

From Slate's "Dear Prudie" -- I figure the guy may post here, so...

Quote:
Dear Prudence,
My husband received an e-mail at our home e-mail address from an online dating service. I did a little snooping and found that my husband actually had a profile with a lot of personal information on it, including his job and his salary. His password was even the name of our dog. I confronted him about it, and he denied ever having anything to do with it. He said he had never heard of this site and never filled out a profile. When I asked him how they got all of this information, he said he didn't know and thought perhaps it was someone playing a joke. He even went as far as to name a few individuals who may have done this. The only problem is that these people would have no idea how much he makes or any of the other personal information. And they would have no reason to do this to him or to me. I'm still very upset about it. The profile indicated that he was interested in a physical relationship/fling, but our sex life is great. What do I do?

—Extremely Uneasy

Dear Ex,
Agreed, this does not look good for your husband. The dog's name as a password … maybe … but the salary and other personal information is unlikely to be known by friends. And this would be a prank very different in spirit from receiving a pizza you did not order. For whatever it's worth, you aren't the only one dealing with this situation. In your case, however, because you say your sex life is good and your husband has denied, denied, denied being on a cybersearch for sex, assume that your discussion has served as a warning, and continue as if nothing has happened. Until something does.

—Prudie, vigilantly
