It is a very long game, with an engaging story. It can be a bit frustrating, but the in-game hints are very helpful, and I’ve posted a short list of “translations” in the game area. ie. What they ask for and what they really mean. BigFishGames Fan.

One does not have to committ adultery or have an affair to find companionship and intimacy. There are many people looking for companionship, friendship, purpose, etc. with hearts of compassion. The partner with AD often has widowed friends who could share the love and compassion for the afflicted spouse as well as the giving of care. The two could provide companionship for each other. There are good people with loving hearts who are alone and would love to be needed to provide for the caregiver and his/her spouse. Sex within an affair would not provide intimacy, but rather feelings of guilt that could last far longer than the illness. However, two people who share in the love, care, and compassion for the one who has been robbed of that right and privilege would unfold an intimacy between hearts that could never be found between the sheets.

Isn’t a large part of calling ones self a Christian having compassion for others irrespective of the circumstances.
I understand “till death do us part,” but if one is to be a caring partner/caregiver it is imperative that she or he stave off depression in any way they can. A depressed caregiver is a cranky caregiver and often not as patient as they ought to be.
I have a feeling that our compassionate, forgiving Savior will understand.

Hmmm, very thought provoking. I’m a big fan of radical honesty, but I guess AD makes radical honesty a bit more challenging …

Who ever started a subject and said that A.D. was a cause of Cheating on thier spouse is out of touch. And probably guilty of adultery themselves (IMHO), What is true though is that each of us are tempted and led away from our heart by temptation by our own lust. You can blame a psychosis,if you want. But the final decision to commit to a physical union (an affair) to another person is not a disease.It is plain old simple sin. Each person is responsible for the final act of sin. If you want to know the truth read the Bible and Be set free from the lies we tell ourselves. The Battle is in the mind of every person.it does not matter if you are a believer in Jesus Christ or not. What does matter is this,You are committed to living a life dedicated to Christ Jesus.Everyone is called to know Christ. If you are alive you are a target.By Satan.Pure and simple. Each persons own temptation for lust, that comes along is meant to strength us, by saying NO. Giving in to our own desires for enticement weakens our moral character.To stand strong in the face of adversity is to look that part of our sin nature (ourselves) in the face and make a conscious decision to be our best manifested selves. God gave us each these choices. what we choose to do with those choices is each our own responsibility.

It’s a simple answer … “until death do us part”.

It really is that simple.
