Cheating on Each Other

i think people don't really consider how cheating is going to make their significant other feel. selfish maybe, yes... but i don't think cheating makes that person a bad person just because of a wrong behavior. first of all we all change as people. we might get into a relationship at a certain time in our lives and then without realizing it - over time- grow apart but still have a deep connection and commitment to our significant other that makes just leaving the relationship more difficult that most people realize. i don't condone cheating but i understand how and why it happens in some relationships. i think it's more of the lying and the sneaking around that makes the person being cheated on feel betrayed. i've also seem certain situations where a couple has been together for many years and they have kids, a house, businesses etc. together and one of them cheats on the other and the other person never finds out and the cheating actually made the marriage better. so it's all a matter of perspective. i don't like being cheated on but if it made my husband happier and better to our family (and i never found out) then so be it. people are going to do what they want anyways... just don't neglect the priorities and people you have a commitment to (like your family). actually talk to your significant other first and maybe he or she feels like they too need to explore someone else for a moment. i guess my biggest problem with people who cheat are habitual cheaters who have always been a cheater and have had no intention of being loyal or devoted to anyone - even though they say they are. again it depends on the situation ... you can't really judge someone for doing something until you've been in their shoes and know what they're going through.

A lot of people who have cheated always say that it is because they feel neglected whatsoever. I guess they are just weak and is very easily swayed. If they love their partners, they won't result to cheating on them, they won't even be tempted to begin with. it is like gluttony, eating when you are still full.

I know all about cheating. I was married and the wife at the time cheated on me. Not a good feeling. And no, we never got back together. Why bother. Once someone cheats they will always cheat.

That is awful. Why would you want to cheat in the first place when you have a partner?

Cheating is unacceptable. I too don't know why people cheat.
