just today,my bestfriend told me she is with her ex from a few years back. He was her first and their relationship lasted for 6years. She is depressed living with her in-laws among other matter concerning her live-in status with the recent partner. Today, she is attending a festival with him. I told her, everything starts from little things. She told me yesterday she's gonna meet a previous man as well, then today, another again. I told her, I dont think that is a good idea. If they are having problem, meeting men would not solve the problem regardless of they will go to bed or not, moreover,her exes. A female friend 4 years ago had an affair with two men as well. I cannot understand why she did it because she has a loving partner just working abroad,often having vacation with her here. Another also, her husband is just working to a place 10hours away from where she is and she is going on bed to almost every man she met. If you get to see these women (my friends), you would not think that they actually do this things because they are soft,gentle,quiet. You would even think that I am the wild one. They are my friend but in this certain situation, I hate them...I am praying for someone to take care of me just like the way their husbands take care of them but why do they even start fooling around? I just don't get them...

Hi luisaR, People do different things for different reasons and most of the time these reasons are known only to them. They may be lonely or are depressed and their action seemed like their only outlet. But whatever the reasons I think it's best not to 'hate' them for it but to pray for them that they will somehow be guided to come to their senses and do the right thing. Yes, continue to pray and one day you will find a guy who will return your love. Have a great day.

I agree with you, because in many of cases there is a reason for cheating. In my point of view a woman is always depends on a man. If they have any problem it will heart more and in that situation they can't hold.

Some women cheats or blame her boy friends to get something from him. This is what is happening now a days. Most of them blame others for getting what they need from others. Most of them doing so becuase they are ignored about the value of love.

I believe that women cheat in a relationship for some of th same reasons that men do. There is something lacking or unsatisfying in their lives and relationships. Something has to be the trigger at cheating and temptations. If women or men were completely happy in their relationships, they would be less likely to wander and stray.

Women or men, to cheat is too easy. I think it's just a matter of morals, humans have it or not, when they don't they promise to be in a relationship but foll around or jump to another relationship and dump the previous one. I think we must yes, maybe find another love, but we must break up first, even before something little as a kiss, it doesn't matter we are with the new person the next day but it's got when we are single. It's just not fair to do something behind someone's back.

I don't think it can be easily answered here. I think all of them most likely did it for different reasons. One might have cheated because they were unhappy in the relationship but didn't want a divorce, one might have done it because they could get away with it, another one might have cheated because they were really lonely and needed someone there with them. There are all different reasons and situations. Either way, cheating is still wrong.

It is hard to watch your friends make choices that you yourself could possibly not make. I have watched many friends throw good marriages down the tubes over small or even large problems that were never addressed. I had the opportunity at one time to be with an ex and when the time came I could just not do it. I instead told him I was sorry got out of the car and had a long talk with my husband on why it almost happened. Now don't get me wrong he was really mad, but then he realized that a part of the reason it almost happened was because he was spending so much time working on a project with 2 hot co workers that I felt insecure about myself and where I stood with him. Sometimes the problem has nothing to do with the husband or partner, but that your friends have something wrong in how they are viewing the world.

Some people turn to doing crazy things just because they are having problem with their relationships. What they are doing is not right and they should stop. They should instead try to solve the root cause of the problem.

I think you're friends are not contented with one man or she doesn't want to be serious in relationship maybe because of some tragic experience before. Like, some men had also cheated to her so she wanted revenge. Have you tried asking her her past?? Maybe that would help because what she does is a great sin. She would know in the end that no one would remain loving her.
