      He wasn't "faithful"; he just didn't give in to his baser urges. he won the war (not acting on his lust) but the battle (to not have sex with her) raged on. I guess the age-old question of what is cheating/being unfaithful is still subjective.

We just didn't have so called "reality tv" and social media to put "bad behavior" in public view, so it was easier to 'keep it in the family'. My opinion anyway.

    I am listening in May 2024!! I had a husband married 26 years that lived unfaithfully. It ended with him committing bigamy. I never ever was unfaithful to my husband. This broke my heart so that I will never date again. I have to concentrate on my own peace. He caused so much disorder in our family. Our children was also scared by what he did. I believe he will get his karma. I believe that good men are few and far between. That is just my feeling.

    This song teaches a very valuable lesson about being faithful in relationships. We need to remember a lot of times the same way we get him/her is also how we will eventually lose them. I have a friend that's actually married and says he wants out and wants to be with me but I refuse to disrespect his wife or myself that way so I suggested they go to counseling together and fight for their marriage. I put myself in her shoes and decided I didn't want to be "that" woman.
