Dear Thelma: My curiosity about dating app has rocked my marriage


I've been in a loving and committed relationship with my wife for the last eight years. We do stay apart most of our married life due to work commitments. However, I have remained loyal and faithful to my wife.

Some time back, my friend told me about Tinder and Instagram. Out of curiosity, I joined these two platforms and started randomly following a few girls. There were short conversations such as how are you, exciting profile, and where are you from. Otherwise, there was no conversation suggesting sex, love or intimacy.
