**If You Could, Would You?**

If you knew you could :

1.  Rob a bank and get away with it?  Would you?'

2.  Cheat on your spouse?  Would You?

3.  Have an unlimited supply or what your DOC...and not have to worry about it....would you still take them?


If you answer yes to any of these questions......Are you a bad person???

Happy thinking.

Nauty....................

I would probably rob the bank and then go terminal with guilt over it. No way - when I make a vow or commitment I mean it. The DOC would just kill me in an ugly manner. Good person? More like some kind of normal. But I keep working on myself every day. Some more productive than others.

Well, I already answered the unlimited supply of my DOC question, as I said I would want that if possible...but bein that it is NOT possible..I will say no, lol..

I would rob a bank...cheating....not sure.....I never cheated on my late husband...but I do think that I won't find that kind of love again. SO cheating now, sure...why not...lol...J/K

Back to #3, I just realized that is impossible, so NO, but it would be a battle of my will to say no.

1.  Rob a bank and get away with it?  Would you?' Probably not, I would be too chicken to go through with it.

2.  Cheat on your spouse?  Would You? No way, I honor my marriage vows and love him with all my heart.

3.  Have an unlimited supply or what your DOC...and not have to worry about it....would you still take them?  This is tricky, if there were no consequences, probably.

ok, here goes,

Rob the bank. no, too scary and wouldnt want to scare any employees. Cheat, have done it and yes would probably do it again, if the same person came back. I know, but am being truthful here. unlimited drugs? the ones I take, yes would be great.  so am I a bad person, maybe, maybe not. not for sure. Nauty, you are a wonderful person, Ive missed you so much, but you make me think too much.

Kim Im glad you came clean and it worked out in the end!!!

I would feel guilty about the first 2 HOWEVER, I would be the MASTERMIND of the robbery-and have an acomplice, instead of actually robbing, to alleviate some of the guilt lol j/k Im too chicken

#2 Couldnt do it, I know I wouldnt want to be cheated on

#3 I wouldnt because Im not on any meds, tryin natural remedies, so no need to steal

well let's see. I could get away with it in Gods eyes too? Then YES  

No I wouldn't cheat on my spouse. One man is enough of a pain

I probally would smoke weed everynight if I had unlimited supply and could get away with it. But no chance of that in Wy. Opiates alcohol all the other stuff no way.
By the way I no no no I don't smoke it no more.

Rob a bank, no way....there is no easy way out, or at least for me anyways and I've come to except that.....
cheat, no although I get accused of it all the time.
drugs;  hell NO!  I'm not going back to that misery again, this world is hard enough

we are all sinful, if you break one of my sins you've broken them all...so we all came from somewhere and our sins are all different, I like to look for the good in people, that's so much more pleasant...you do have a good side naighty don't ya :P ;) ;)

now if you ask me if I loose it from time to time, yes
I want things NOW!  but I'm always willing to work for them
I want things done my way, stubborn I tell ya lol
I could go on but I'm sure that's enought lol

Ok Nauty ever since this post today,I've been going crazy thinking how can I say I wouldn't rob a bank because of the guilt but I still haven't told my husband about the second time I cheated.So I have felt guilty all day and we were sitting out on the deck after dinner just talking abut nothing important so I brought up your post.Of course he asked me what my response was to the questions and I took a deep breath and reminded him of some of the things he used to do when he was still drinking,and how we both agreed to put the past behind us,and I spilled my guts.He wasn't all that surprised.He had always suspected it,but I would never admit to it,not until tonight.We talked about it for a little while as to the when and how long and things are fine.He knows when I was using I was a totally different person and not at all in a good way.He also knows I love him with all that I am and all that I have.I'd lay down my life for him,I love him that much.So Nauty thank you for making me feel the guilt today so much so that I finally came clean and don't have to ever feel it again because of this.Peace....Kim

1. No
2. I dont' have to worry about that anymore.....but I thought about it once to get revenge but didn't because it wouldn't change the fact of how I felt betrayed, sad, hopeless and used when I found out my spouse was cheating on me.
3. No.

Is anyone a bad person? I guess it depends on who's judging..... I'm a firm believer that you have to walk a mile one one's shoes before you can do that.

The bank:  No.....I have this majorly intense superhero core of justice/right and wrong, so the guilt of it would kill me....I could not do it....although I need the money badly, and I know I probably get ripped off by the damned system....hmmm...I wouldn't tell though, if a family member did it....and I'd probably spend the money, but I would feel guilty all the time....

The spouse:  No way.....I have always told my husband, that there is NO need for cheating.  If at any time he wants to do someone else, by all means, tell me, and I'll set him free, and I'd give him the same courtesy.....

The DOC:  Hmmmm.....Well, I may be the only one to answer this way...and I'm not sure what it says about me, but I'm just being totally honest here...I MIGHT take 'em......I have awful pain all the time that greatly affects my life....so, that being said, even with the bad that comes with them.....I'd be awful tempted to use 'em....

1: no


2: did that 20 something years ago with my now ex NEVER AGAIN...I still live with the
    guilt and see what it did to my kids..though life is starting to turn out well for them..but
    never again..an office fling that turned serious (for me anyway and she said it was for
    her)...to quote Eric Burden..."she was brown and I was pretty green".

3. No. Yes.  No....yes..no...yes...hell, I don't know.


Am I a bad person..no.  (re question 2)..just got caught up in something I shouldn't have..my wife and I spent a lot of energy with my oldest son who was always in trouble and had no energy for each other..into work comes a woman who smiles at me and talks and listens to me..next thing you know..well..went on for 4 years or so even after my divorce..she was living with a guy she was going to leave for me..I believed it..
I did something so out of character for me that I hate myself for it and will never forgive msyelf for it.

Is someone a bad person for answering yes to any of those questions.  I don't necessarily think so.  We're all at different places in our lives at different times.  So, no, I think most people are good or try to be.
