Dishonesty in the short term to aid in a long term more honest goal

Aristotle specifically said the golden mean does not apply to everything, for example there is no reason not to be only moderately virtuous

being ethical,faithful and honest: fapping to mary
being unethical, unfaithful and dishonest: NOT fapping to mary

You don't understand the golden mean, anon.
>where's the Aristotelian golden mean between faithfulness and unfaithfulness
There isn't, because those two aren't the two extreme. Blind devotion and unfaithfulness are the two extremes, with faithfulness in the middle.
>honesty and dishonesty?
Again, honesty is the middle, dishonesty and being unable to mediate is the the other.

If you aim to be virtuous about everything, then you would be seeking an extremity in possessing virtuosity.
