Kate was a conservative woman who fell in love with Bill, a liberal man.  Bill convinced her to marry him despite her parents strong objections.  Ten years later, Kate began to suffer from strange bouts of lethargy and sickness.  Several trips to the doctor were unable to find a cause, until he performed a blood test.  It turned out that Kate had AIDS.  She confronted Bill who admitted that he considered himself bisexual and had been involved in several homosexual affairs while married to Kate.  He was tested as well, and also was HIV positive, but the disease had not progressed to AIDS.  Kate divorced and is now forced to take a battery of medications to delay the inevitable.

==Example Six==
 +
John attended a Conservative college, where he met Nancy, who attended a liberal college in the same city. The two dated, and developed strong feelings for one another, despite their large differences in their values. Nancy, an atheist, convinced John that she loved him, and that he loved her. Having expected it from her earlier, more liberal, boyfriends, Nancy convinced John to have pre-marital sex, despite his misgivings. They used contraception, but being imperfect, it failed, and Nancy became pregnant. John then proposed to Nancy and the two were soon married.

John finished college and got a good job, while Nancy dropped out and raised their son. Like most liberal college students, Nancy was a drug user, and he had drug-dealer friends she bought her drugs from. These people had frequent access to John and Nancy's apartment. One day, while John and Nancy were on vacation, Nancy's drug-dealing "friends" let themselves in and stole nearly everything they owned. They even used their bank records to empty their accounts. When Nancy realized what happened, and who was responsible, she tried to make it look like a random break-in, rather than an inside job. She was sloppy, however, and the police were quick to realize her complicity after the fact. Nancy went to jail for several months, while John lost his job because sensitive papers he had brought home were stolen in the robbery. Completely destitute and without a job, John took his son and moved in with his parents.

John divorced Nancy while she was still incarcerated. He met a nice conservative woman who he started to date, and, with a good work ethic, slowly began to put his life back together.
