There are rules to being a side piece- don't forget them

Back in the day, affairs were talked about in very low tones. An affair was a secret. Side chicks, or mipangos, were hidden like payslips or marijuana. No coughing, no sneezing - actually a side chick was not even supposed to breathe! But with the dynamics of today's dating world, diversity of relationships, freedom and liberation among both gender, affairs are now a part of us.

Being the other woman isn't that easy because it comes with rules. It might look rosy, but we know being around when you're not supposed to be around can be exhausting. It isn't always about road trips, expensive gifts, steamy sexcapades and birthday treats. There's the risk-taking bit, a little drama here and there and even heartbreaks.
