Guest Posted March 14, 2007 Share Posted March 14, 2007 If the girl in the relationship wears the pants so to speak and is very controlling/manipulative. Would she cheat on her boyfriend if he went to visit family for a week without her? Thinking that she always wants to be in power over him and he isnt there....would this drive her to do this?

LakesideDream Posted March 14, 2007 Share Posted March 14, 2007 IMO, most women cheat when they are trying out "replacements". If you believe your SO is looking to make an upgrade from you... you have something to worry about. Relationships are about 100-100% effort. If one person "wears the pants" in a relationship, there are already big problems. Link to post Share on other sites
kimberlyk Posted March 14, 2007 Share Posted March 14, 2007 I have to admit, I can be very controlling in my relationships, but I also like to give up control and be controlled at times too, as long as I feel secure with him. I have had many opportunities to cheat while myself or my significant other was out of town but I would never act upon the opportunity. In some ways I feel more empowered by turning down the opportunity, it puts me in a position to know that someone can actually feel secure with me and that makes me feel good, whether my significant other knows they can trust me or not, I know who I am and what I am about, and that's very important to me. Even if I found out a guy cheated on me, I wouldn't have the heart to cheat to get even, I would just dump him. I think there has to be more to your question here than you have given up, have you seen signs of possible cheating on her part? Have you noticed any big bright red flags? There must be a reason that you ask this question...?! Maybe if you have doubts you should just get out, sometimes we just need to save ourself the grief of possibly getting hurt.

I don't think that just because one has control issues means they always cheat also. I do think theres a lack of trust there as to why you feel or are wondering if she would though. Its got to be more to it than just her being controling. Why do you feel she might? Link to post Share on other sites
