Taken_Angel Posted August 24, 2004 Share Posted August 24, 2004 Who here has seen "Cheaters"??? For those of you who don't know a little explanation....... People call or email the show and tell their story, (they suspect their mate of cheating on them) if they story is honest and sounds like they have reasonable suspicion Cheaters will send Private Investigators out to meet with the person. Then once they find out where the "suspect" works and hangs out they begin to "trail and film" them. They watch to see who they interact with, where they go, what they do, sometimes they place hidden cameras inside the couple's residence so they can see if the "suspect" is actually having sexual relationships with other people. They film the "suspect" without their knowledge (obviously so they can bust them) but only air it with everyone involved's permission. Once they have evidence of cheating or of the person not cheating (sometimes they trail them for weeks until they can prove one way or another). The PI's call the suspicious partner and clue them in on what's happening and show them whatever evidence (in the form of video) that they have obtained then (if the partner is cheating) they take them to where the partner is with the "other person" and allow them to confront their cheating partners, talk to them, and in some cases fight with the "other person". Cheaters So my question to all of you is....would you go so far as this to confirm your worst fears, to catch and confirm one way or another if your partner is cheating or not? What do you think of people who call on Private Investigators to check up on their partners? Do you think that they are sad in a way because they are so lacking in trust or do you think it is a good idea therefor there won't be any unjust assumptions? I will save my opinion on this because I don't want it to be a One sided thread. Please tell me what you think. Link to post Share on other sites

I would if I couldn't get the information/confirmation on my own, but up until now I've been able to do that. I also like confrontation so it would be fun to catch the b!tch in the act. Originally posted by Taken_Angel Do you think that they are sad in a way because they are so lacking in trust...? No. If they called the show to hire a PI and found nothing then they are "so lacking in trust". The people on the show are more than justified in not trusting who they're with. They just need confirmation. On a final note, I have to say I absolutely love that show. It amuses me to no end to watch cheaters get caught in the act and see how they try to justify their actions.

And yeah they always are justified in the end and have more than enough reason to be suspicious. I'm curious to know if more people find this an acceptable way to confirm their suspicions??

supermom Posted August 24, 2004 Share Posted August 24, 2004 I feel that maybe people who go to these extremes are at the end of their rope and want to know once and for all, if they are being taken for a fool. I've seen this show, and find it interesting. Especially the cheaters look on their face, like "oh s***!" Link to post Share on other sites
Mary3 Posted August 25, 2004 Share Posted August 25, 2004 I think that the show in itself is humiliating to both the victim and the Cheater. Both are exposed on national TV...Isn't it painful enough already without having everyone on TV watch total devastation unfold ? I do think that if someone wants to investigate their partner and has the financial means to do so and can live with ( ..in all likelyhood.. ) that the person is indeed *Cheating* ...then thats a personal choice. I admit I have watched the show and feel good when they catch the * Cheater * but who really wins here ? Its just more pain exposed....and for all to see....I personally would not want it televised....I would be too busy packing and getting the hell out lol Link to post Share on other sites
Author Taken_Angel Posted August 25, 2004 Author Share Posted August 25, 2004 Good point...but since the "victim" of the cheater is actually the one who calls the show knowing what will most likely unfold I think it's good that they get the cheaters face on tv for all the world to see! At least it's some sort of pay-back for the pain and dis-honesty. Personally I think if I have suspicions my partner is cheating I would attempt to find out on my own, if I couldn't and the feelings didn't go away I would leave on my own. No reason to stay with someone who makes you feel that something isn't right between the two of you. Link to post Share on other sites
