I want to see if my young daughter loves me. Would it be immoral to tell her that I’m divorcing her mom and abandoning her to see if she cries, even if I tell her it is a lie in the next moment?

Some years ago a friend tried to seduce me while we were both drunk. I refused to let anything happen because she is the fiancé of a friend. I decided not to tell this to my friend, who loves her a lot, since nothing physical happened and she seemed to regret it. Is it immoral of me not to tell him?

I am a devoted Objectivist, but my boyfriend is not an admirer of Ayn Rand and is in fact a supporter of Obama. I want him in my life. Am I immoral and irrational for loving a man who opposes my highest value?
