I Hate Cheaters

LEAVE...

I don't get it why people stay in a relationship even if they want someone else.

Wouldn't it be nicer to come clean and spare the spouse from the agony of finding out the affair?

Why not have the decency to tell the truth & stop the trail of forbidden path?

Some people can be selfishly greedy. They want a spouse and an affair on the side.

Once caught they lie with sets of alibis. The fabricated rope of tell-tale never ends. Sickening!

It's not that easy to unravel. Cheating (with ANYTHING) is a survival skill. The thing(s) the person is surviving isn't something the cheater wants to deal with. That would be too painful. The ego/identity NEVER wants to get caught with it's pants down. If it ever got found out, that would be the end of its agenda. Cheating is running away from something. Since cheating is such a successful survival strategy, which effectively keeps the pain at bay, the ploy will continue as long as he or she can get away with it. Usually (for example, if there's no revenge involved), it's not meant to hurt anyone. There's nothing malicious or sinister about it. Its purpose is to keep the cheater safe from his or her own fear-based feelings. That [b][i]hardly[/i][/b] means it should be tolerated. If the cheater isn't willing to dive deeply into his or her own life with a sincere willingness to make corrections, move on.

@PhoenixPhail very profound explanation. Just wondering if you were cheated on or you cheated? ✌️
@1Dogma I've been cheated on a lot more than I've cheated. And yes, I've cheated. I had a very short-lived online affair with a married woman.

@PhoenixPhail It happens. Life can be ironic.
