I Think Cheating Is Wrong

Either you are single or you're not. If you're 'unhappily' married or 'having problems' or 'having second thoughts' it does not make you free shop around in the singles market looking for a possible alternative just in case you should need one. If your partner's no good then what's stopping you from leaving them? You can't have it both ways. A person may be an unknowing cheat by participating in a relationship with someone that they believe to be single when they really are not but that situation will not go on for very long and it is not exactly the same thing as deliberate cheating. Taking advantage of a committed partner's trust is theft of the worst kind. You are not only stealing the time and money and trust of your spouse (or would be spouse) but you are doing the same thing to the person who believes you are single and available. It hurts everyone. There are no winners. (Just corrected a spelling mistake)

2016 has a whole new definition of marriage and cheat. I had no idea. I'm old fashioned I guess.

No its nothing new

The Ancient and Free thinkers did this for thousands of Years

In fact Monogamy didnt even come into play until the Judeo Christian era THEY rewrote that rulebook

@ReaperofTime: the modern idea of having to find one person to fulfill all needs has left us unsatisfied and disappointed.

@Kuronekko: Widely yes because as REAL Life happens two people who care deeply for each other and maybe always will can still grow apart in some ways why should either have to settle or be left unsatisfied all that should matter is that they still treat each other with respect and dignity when it is time

@ReaperofTime: the whole idea that you can stay 'in love' with someone forever while seeing them day in day out is ludicrous really. If you want to love someone you're best doing it with separate houses lol
