I was cheated on and it is devistating! The hurt is devistating. The person cheating is selfish. Once a person cheats trust is out!

      No.

      Have never in my life cheated on a partner. Ever. My attitude has always been that if it's broke, I'm gone before that happens.

        Never, why be together ? If you cheat then you might as well leave, the same goes for the significant other. Trust has been broken.

            If you are in a relationship, you should never cheat under any circumstance. It is so much easier to just break up before hand. Why cheat

                She is mine and I am hers. To cheat would break the love that brought us together. I have been married more than 38 years. She is the only

                  Yes.

                  Sure if the woman cheats, then it gives a green light for the husband to do the same. If she does not like it , tough.

                    I would cheat on my S.O. because of his infidelity, emotional neglect and/or emotional or physical abuse.

                      Monogamy is over-rated. Cheating is a function of convenience and quality of opportunities. With those 2 in place, everyone will cheat.

                          You must be a guy. Only a guy with an attitude towards women could make that statement.

                              Reason # 6, because she fell in love.

                              People do fall in love. In the end, that is what matters. All the rest is process.

                                It would be an act of dishonor to cheat on my wife. It will never happen.

                                There is no intimacy in our marriage. My wife tells be to go ahead and cheat but she doesn't want to know about it.

                                  Sorry to heat that Jack, your in a @!$%# situation. It would probably be better to seperate or divorce than to be dishonest and distrustful and cheat on your significant other while they think that you are the only one for them. Grow some nuts and move on, life is better to be honest than to live in deceat.......

                                  (Just my opinion of course)
