Relationships: Is cheating forgivable?

Lol. I saw it there too. lol. And somewhere else on the internet. I love quotes like that. I could read them all day.

soo....

Interesting.

One who is wise will refrain from cheating in the first place. Why not look down upon cheaters? They're clearly disloyal.

What U r saying is if one makes a mistake, be it betrayal, they should never get a second chance, even if they earn it?

God forbid one makes a mistake.

Most folks who'd cheat, indeed are disloyal and not trustworthy in most other aspects of their life, absolutely.

A one time slip up, that indeed is one time, and as time passes is not repeated, I can understand.

Someone who repeatedly makes "mistakes/slip-ups" does not deserve another (repeat) chances.

Yes I meant cheating ONCE.... and then repenting.

And one is wise through observing others mistakes? I don't buy it.
If your friend got cheated on, you are sure as hel1 not gonna be the heartbroken one so when it happenes to you, the heartbreak will simk in and some (who are clingy) will hold on or some (who are proud) will send that mofo to hel1...

I learn through my mistakes because maybe the person next to me didn't handle such things so well.

Meeeeh, I'm not exactly down with people who planning to cheat. I'm trying to settle down and have a family already.

Because when you enter a realtionship you pretty much promise to be only with your parnter, it's pretty much implied that you wont sleep with anyone else as long as you are together.

That doesn't make sense though. How is sleeping with someone else harmful to the relationship? There doesn't seem to be any fundamental problem with it, it's just something that we've been taught.

I'm still not getting the part where everyone seems to think having sex with other people = disloyalty.

Clearly, if you are in a hippy open-relation, then cheating is A—O.K.

If 2 people are in a committed relationship, then it is very much so less than loyal, to cheat.

U must be talking about open relationships. If that is the case, you just shut JB#s up, otherwise, JB is right! U were not loyal to your partner and the relationship because you took what was sacred from that and instilled it in someone else/ something else.

You're missing the point, though. What I don't understand is what sex has to do with loyalty. Because obviously you guys are making that connection and I'm not. So can someone explain this to me?

Sex is intricately linked to feelings, especially within a relationship, and to engage in sex with someone foreign to the relationship betrays the other partners loyalty and trust.

Especially with all the bugs crawling about nowadays, cheating can have profound ramifications to the involved party's health.
 
Call me heartless, but I don't really see the connection here either
Well how about you get a girlfriend that you really like and when she cheats on you then you'll know how it truly feels to be ****ED OVER! There...I said it. Or even a wife. sorry if that was a bit harsh. No offense.

And one is wise through observing others mistakes? I don't buy it

Yes, I do believe this. Why? Because I've never had a girlfriend in my life and I KNOW I can do much better than most people are these days. Yes, if you observe others' mistakes and learn from them then I would consider you wise.

It'd be one thing if she left me over something like that. But if she was just having sex with another man and still wanted to be with me, I wouldn't be as bothered by that (I'd try to address why, but other than that I wouldn't mind). It only bothers you as much as you let it bother you.

Sex is precious. It should only occur between two people. It shouldn't be, "let's have sex I think you're special and all, but even though I think you're special I'm still going to have sex with the Pizza Delivery Guy."
Well that's just how I see it. So...would you have sex with someone else other than your wife if you were married?

Well folks. That's today's lesson on how diseases spread.
