FBI and ruining relationships

My fiance and I recently watched the movie Next starring the wonderful Nicholas Cage. As any fan of his knows, all of the movies he stars in are action packed, and very informative. Of course also, there has to be a little romance. Well, a part of the movie got me to thinking about the federal bureau of investigations and any other federally funded agency that are formed to protect us. I do not want to give the movie away but I will say that a part of the movie featured a federal agent who attempted to compromise the relationship of Nicholas Cage and Jessica Biel who is the other starring actor. This was only a small part of the movie and I will not go to into detail but I do want to ask you all on your opinion of this. If you were a federal agent would you compromise a person's relationship by lying to help you and your team of operatives on a mission? I do not think that I could do that, in good conscious I would try all in my power to maneuver around ruining a relationship, even if that meant jeopardizing my career and blowing government cover. I would also like to add that I would greatly appreciate if everyone who responds to me takes this seriously. I appreciate everyone's responses and I hope that you all have a very wonderfully lovely day.

Let me start off by saying what the agent was trying to do is wrong and unethical and should be against the guidelines and morals that you have to follow in order to work for the government,and if I was an FBI agent I would never attempt to compromise someones relationship just to help with the assignment I am on,instead I would try to find some alternative means to get the information that I need,but without blowing my cover,or doing anything that could cause us to have to abort our mission,or put the world at risk.

I agree and wanted to say myself that I felt it was unethical of her but I feel I may have a little to much to say on the subject so I abstained from saying anything of it. I appreciate your response to me, baby and have to say that I am glad that you agree that you would do all that you could to not blow you cover but also do all that you could to not compromise the relationship of another. I appreciate your response to me, baby, and I love you!
