Do you believe in the saying "Once a cheater, always a cheater?"

I don't think so. I've cheated ONCE and have NEVER done it again. I'm afraid cheating will only hurt me more. It has before and I will never do it again. It's not worth losing the person you love and that respects you. Maybe if you cheat often is because your not really in love.

I do to also. Or at least by watching my father in law. He is on his third wife now. and still has not changed. :(

IT can be right or wrong. 50% chances. I'm happy to respond these kind of simple questions. When the questions are asked which has some personal or intimate touch, I feel like talking with our true friends. Though my favorite topics are science and politics, I'm happy to share my personal view on so many issues like this with the international community, thanks to mylot for offering such site and space.

I am 50/50 on this! I know people who have always been cheaters, but the other half of people may have cheated once but would never do it again....hhhmmm

Actually I don't. I believe that people are fully capable of learning from their mistakes. If they weren't, what would be the point of living?

well, in most of the cases it happens but everyone deserves a second chance!

this is a difficult one but veiwing it from our human natare i think it will be very very hard not to cheat. but we can still break it though lol.

My personal feelings on this have more to do with the reason someone cheats in the first place. But there are many people who will do it over and over again if they keep getting away with it or forgiven by their partners. I do feel that there can be those just once situations, but those are most likely more in the minority.

I think give a person a second chance but i have known a few ppl that have cheated said sorry never again i really love you then cheated again. that same person s wife divorced him he married the woman he was cheating with and was then caught cheating again with another women.I pesonally have never cheated nor has my husband of 39yrs but we both know ppl that have cheated numerice times so yes i have to agree with you i would never marry someone who was cheating on their patener with me as i figure if he cheated with me he could just as easily cheat on me

If that were true, then the possibility of someone making better choices in the future, wouldn't exist. Is that true?

yes... If they werent committed to the relationship to beging with what them more committed after they cheated?

from a working moms forum... kind of cool huh

Nope, I dont believe that once a cheater, always be a cheater. Theres always room for change. Give that somebody the chance to realize that cheating will do no good, to him/her or to everybody.

I think it depends on the person's self confidence..if they gain confidence after cheating maybe they wont do it again

it depends,i think we learn from our mistakes and if that person realises it was a mistake he will not do it again risking the love of his partner..i can tell from my own experience that cheating only brings more confused feelings,and lots of pain and problems for all the 3 persons involved..

no i dont believe in that cheating is a human flaw is can change

yes, i do. I don't condone cheating. I have been lucky enough to never cheated on the person i was with. But, i have to say if you have cheated on somene its a higher probability that it will happen again.

I never say " always". Things & people can change if they want to.

I don't believe that saying at all! I cheated once and only once in a previous relationship and I would never do it with my husband. I love him more than life. Also he cheated on me when we first met and has never done it since.

I have know some people that have cheated on every person they have been with.. I have known only 1 or 2 that have cheated once and they felt so bad they would never do it again. I could never cheat.. I couldn't hurt someone like that
