yeah i mean when i cheated it was because the relationship was bad. but after i did it i realized what i coward i was for not being honest and saying look this isnt working and just walked away without respecting him like he should've been respected. but you make mistakes and you learn u know.

I know someone like this. Scary thing is, I believe cheating occurs from someone's personality. Like you said, you were a coward and that is a personality trait. You lacked the strength of will to face your problems in the face and resorted to doing something cowardly. I don't want to say it will happen again, but chances are, from numerous studies, that it will. It is the same with alcoholics and druggies relapsing. It all comes down to a person's personality, or more accurately, their strength of will or lack thereof in this instance.

[Vanessalalinda]

i see your point but i dont think itll happen again. as a mental health worker i'm a huge believer of people being able to change if they exercise self awareness which i push myself to do in every situation. i also blame it on age as well. I was young and silly....now i'm just silly.

It's way easier to cut your losses and bail than to cheat. Cheating takes effort: hiding, planning, lying, use of resources, etc. Even in my teen years the thought of cheating on my then-bf horrified me (or finding him doing the same etc). Hell, I broke up with him later because of his loss of interest and I found someone more interesting--and I still felt bad about it.

[Urabus GodofTraction]

All men will eventually cheat on women that don't satisfy them.

Physically or mentally. Of course, it goes both ways.

[dre1507]

Yo, charlieo. Buddy. No. Just no. Nuh uh. Not cool. Speak for yourself. There're people out there like dragoness who break it off before cheating becomes an option.

I think Charlieo is viewing it in the biblical sense, where if you so much as think about it, it's just as bad as committing the action, hence him saying "physically or mentally".

That being said, You can't group all men into a single category, which kinda makes this thread irrelevant, as not all men cheat, but not all men are faithful. Just facts of life. Every person is different.

I can speak for myself and no one else when I say that I don't cheat. I can't say that you don't cheat, because I am not you.

[dre1507]

in his comment, i think "physically or mentally" is pertaining to his view of why people cheat: not being satisfied "physically or mentally".

[Ace2cool]

Ah, I see now. I was misinterpreting. Disregard the first bit of my last post.

I really wish all people thought like you. Sadly, not everyone does. In fact, most people don't. Many people would much rather do all those shady things required to cheat than face confrontation with the root of the problem. It's a sad reality. It really is. I cry for humanity.

[dre1507]

Yaaaay. You cry. That way i don't have to. You're such a nice person.

4th word, buddy. Eventually. If somehow you were locked into a relationship as I've described, you'd cheat.

Thankfully this isn't 2001 Afghanistan, though.

[dre1507]

No no no. Charlie no. Why would cheating be necessary? Let me tell you a little bit about me. When a relationship gets boring to me, i let it be known i have no further interest in continuing. It's better to come off as the douche-bad guy at that moment, than to have her catch you with some other girl.

You've missed the point, and are so adamant about it I'm pretty sure you're tempted to cheat. Amateur sikewlage at it's finest!

[dre1507]

i am pretty sure i did not miss the point you were trying to make. you're saying that everyone who becomes dissatisfied in a relationship will eventually cheat. it really isn't so. there are people who believe in ending it before they begin contemplating cheating. now you can say what you want about me, but it doesn't mean jack diddley. the truth of the matter is, the closest i have ever come to cheating is some random chick dancing on me at a party, and from my point of view that a long shot from cheating, even though such actions are sometimes the precursor to cheating. however, nothing besides the dancing hapened because i had no intentions of anything beyond that happening. and i was in a very hapy relationship at the time. we broke up because she moved to cali. fact is there will always be girls/guys just as hot as ur gf/bf out there, and if that alone is temptation for anyone to cheat, then i really do pity such a person. if you're really not happy with someone, why not just man up (or woman up) lol, break it off and break their heart then, instead of later on down the road in a much harsher way. i guess i am adamant about my point, because i do not understand cheating. nobody is perfect and people make mistakes....i get that. but i do not get people that cheat once or over and over by making excuses such as: "i wasn't satisfied with him/her mentally and/or physically". /i guess this was a rantedit: going back to charlie's point, if you're in a relationship with somebody you're not satisfied with and you do eventually cheat because you decided not to break it off and now you're using the dissatisfaction of the relationship as an excuses, i think you may have some serious mental issues you should get checked out. or maybe you just had cheating as a back plan in case you got bored of the person instead of doing right by them. dear god ive written another essay.

Believe it or not, most people who cheat do it not because they are not satisfied with the relationship overall, but merely when the relationship is in a rut or low point. People most often cheat during the low point of the relationship, not necessarily near the end of one. That is what is sad simply because it just shows how weak minded some people are.

[Jesda]

Think of it like school work. I wouldn't cheat even if I knew I wouldn't get caught.

[dre1507]

i like that analogy Jesda. to me, a guy who can still count the relationships he's been in on both hands, i guess i put a lot of value on relationships.

[MinisterofDOOM]

Think of it like school work. I wouldn't cheat even if I knew I wouldn't get caught.

That one definitely doesn't work for me. In school, I WILL cheat if I know I won't get caught. It's hard to have standards regarding something you don't care about/have no respect for. Actually, I guess your analogy still does work for me...I just don't have the same standards for school as I do for people.
