Woggle Posted December 14, 2012 Share Posted December 14, 2012 One of the reasons I very much am against cheating is not just because of the pain it causes the betrayed partner which is bad enough but the ripple effect it has through the entire dating world. You cheat on somebody then they end up hurting the next person than that person hurts somebody and so on. There are so many people who simply think the opposite sex is not to be trusted because an ex betrayed them or they witnessed cheating with their parents and many carry that scar for life or at least for a very long time. They will never take off that armor which makes it very hard for even the best intentioned person to date them. 5 Link to post Share on other sites
dreamingoftigers Posted December 14, 2012 Share Posted December 14, 2012 I agree. Society today is seeing far more of the mass-effect it has. I think it also gives the message "everyone cheats" so you feel kind of different/weird/pride/unattractive/loser if you don't take whatever sexual opportunity presents itself. It really does change you permanently. Link to post Share on other sites

GLDheart Posted December 15, 2012 Share Posted December 15, 2012 I belive you can sum it up as: "Hurt people hurt people." 1 Link to post Share on other sites
Clockwork Posted December 15, 2012 Share Posted December 15, 2012 We need to have our society watch more movies like "Fatal Attraction" and "Unfaithful". Honestly. Both powerful movies and each one describes a husband or a wife cheating. Same director too. It just isn't worth it people and it always starts out as something you do once. But it never ends there.

orcunderabridge Posted December 16, 2012 Share Posted December 16, 2012 I myself have personally lived just this. My ex gf cheated on me and since then I've been on a self damaging quest to reinforce that 'all girls cheat'. A number of married woman later I've realized that My twisted views are not correc but are just in fact twisted. People only cheat when they feel they are lacking something.

But I've never cheated like ever not even thought about it lol its a state of mind I personally take time off the dating scene you know I reconnect with friends, work out a lot, concentrate at school & become a workaholic. When I'm ready I go back into it with a cleared mind and no longer holding grudges so that i don't take it out on the next dude. I don't think about old relationship when I'm in a new one because i don't want to be compared to his previous girlfriend because I'm not her I'm ME & I just don't cheat lol STUPID CYCLE lol I never really thought about it like that its kinda sad does that mean i have to deal with more cheating guys ... what a waste of energy lol Link to post Share on other sites
