I don't particularly care where Petraeus put his dick, but people who have security clearances are usually required to agree to disclose certain types of relationships (because honey traps are such popular ways of getting intel). I've known people, for example, who've had relatively minor security clearances who were required to disclose to their superiors any time they had sex with any foreign nationals. Like, this is a thing that people are asked to do by their bosses.
Spies, according to popular lore, are required to fill out paperwork if they start new relationships because the culture is very distrusting of anyone suddenly getting close to you. If Petraeus didn't do all the right security clearance things, people will get into a fit. *shrug*
