Regarding that survey...

So, regarding that survey from last week, there was one condition where your partner was cheating on you "emotionally" and one where s/he was cheating "sexually." So the question about, "How likely is it they had sex" was 1) a check to make sure you knew what your partner was doing, and 2) a measure of how much sexual cheating bothered you if you

Wow, that invalidates my response to the second question. I picked the highest "likely so" case of "are they having sex" because (as I read it) it explicitly said so. In normal circumstances I would have responded that it was not likely my SO & the other [insert gender here] had reached that point.

Is the test still up so I can check the wording?

you can check the wording, yes. If you were in the condition where it explicitly said that your partner was having passionate sexual intercourse, then yeah, you should've checked the highest "likely so" option. Not everyone, however, had it ASK whether that was going on. for some, it jut said, "Deep emotional bond."

Ah, I was wondering about your description of emotional vs. sexual, because I hadn't read that in the survey.

hmmm, my reaction was more or less "test is broken -- skip it" (and hense my question on the last entry)

Hmmm...would have found this test pretty interesting, had I known about it. Oh well. Out of curiosity, what did you find out?

And yeah, I got a livejournal finally, so you dont have to log onto Xanga all the time just to comment on my stuff...I'll probably still post my more intellectual posts on Megily there, but all the personal stuff is probably going to get posted on this one from now on...or at least that's the plan for right now.
