Hello beautiful people, I've been away from MAL for years but just decided to pass by here to see how much this place has changed and make a post for old times' sake.

OT: If you've ever being cheated on by your gf/bf you should know that feeling very well, if you haven't, consider yourself lucky. I'd like to know what do you think about people who cheat on others? Have you ever being cheated on? How did you feel about it? What did you do? Have you ever cheated on someone? And if you've never being cheated on, what do you think your reaction would be? Discuss~

People who cheat on others are scum and I have no respect for them.
I'm sorry, but I cannot bring myself to put that in a nicer way.

As for if I have ever been cheated on, no, I haven't.
If my partner ever did cheat on me, I would give him another chance, but he would be on a very short leash for some time tbh.

Yes. It quickly became clear that the best thing I could do was drop that girl and search for someone who wouldn't sleep with other dudes.

On the bright side, it made it much easier to avoid banging strangers when I already have a partner.

I've felt I was being cheated even though she was not my girlfriend. That was the worst feeling I've felt.
Cheating is always bad for me. I've felt bad to my ex because she thought I was cheating on her but I didn't, but she still broke up with me despite my explanation.

If someone broke up with you just because of her/his paranoia, I can tell you're better off without that person, he/she clearly didn't trust you at all.

I won't blame her for that, the paranoia happened because cheating exists, and she was greatly affected by that ambiance. She was just too possessive, but there's more to the story on why we didn't end up good. But that's why I despise all forms of cheating. Why would you cheat though? It would only lead to suffering for both.

I was in a relationship for four years and was being cheated on for two. It kind of sucks.

I don't think she was terrible, not anymore at least. I didn't react to well when I found out, though. I think it's a reflection on them, not the person being cheated on. That doesn't make them necessarily bad. It's just that they have problems and really shouldn't be in a relationship to begin with.

Just dump their ass and move on. Cheaters clearly have a lot of free time, and a lack of ambition, if most of their efforts are spent on changing partners. Relationships take time to build, and it is an investment that should be made as few times as possible because the returns are always very contingent. To date for fun alone, or change partners every other year without building on the last relationship, is the greatest indicator of the person's stupidity and willingness to waste life away instead of doing something valuable with it.

Which is why one must be careful at each step of the relationship. To begin, one must look for someone who is on the same mental level and also shows promise of progress atop of that. Once one has the certainty that things can always improve instead of being killed halfway just because something wasn't to either one's liking, then is the time to begin a relationship. From that point on, all efforts must be focused on making the relationship better. If one begins with the mindset of finding the perfect partner, then all hope is lost by default.

If someone I loved - for I love with my entire soul - ever cheated on me I honestly hope they'd dump me before I found out, because it's just not something I would allow.
I'd never cheat on a girl so she would never I dare to think. I don't quite know what reaction I'd have if it was with a girl, but with a boy I'd go on a rampage.

I haven't had the misfortune of experiencing that yet, nonetheless I think it's a despicable act.Of course one could bring up the argument that we are sex driven animals deep down, but if we humans really consider ourselves superior to other creatures on Earth then actually staying true to being a sex driven animal is out of the question.
This might seem like I'm basically saying cheaters=animals, I mean I'd personally hold a tame animal in higher regard so it's not far off.So if anyone did that to me I'd dump their ass yo.

I'd personally just dump them and move on. No guarantee it won't happen again after all and if they've done it full well knowing how I'd feel afterwards there's no reason to stick around for that person anymore.

I would beat my GF and the random fuckface up. I wouldn't go too hard on my GF, maybe a few slaps on her face and then I'd beat the shit out of the guy who touched my GF.

Dumping her is self explanatory right? Luckily I never had to go through that feeling.

hopefully i'll never get cheated on. i would never ever cheat in a relationship either. why be in one if you're going to cheat? if you cheat, that means there's something about the relationship that isn't going well-- wouldn't you try to confront that person?

i would most likely not be with the person who cheated. it just meant they doubted the relationship, and that they weren't happy with me, and i really don't want to feel those things. ' ^ '

Grow a pair? Maybe easy for you to say that, maybe you don't appreciate depth in your romantic relationships as much as I do. If I find the one, it won't be so shallow such that one kind of this mistake has to fuck it up. There's context to these kind of things, mate.

It's a despicable thing to cheat on someone and I have no sympathy or patience for those fuckers. I have been cheated on before, and I've seen it happen to other people. It's a terrible feeling. The only appropriate response is to completely end the relationship there and kick the cheater out of your life. Anything less is just you telling them it's ok to use you.

ProTip: If they cheat on you, they weren't "the one." Cheating isn't a "mistake," it's a deliberate decision on one person's part that they don't value you or your relationship but are either 1) too cowardly to break up with you or work through whatever issue there may be, or 2) staying in the relationship with you for some personal gain or benefit while getting all of their fullfilment elsewhere. There may be depth in that relationship to you, but to them you're just something easy to support their lifestyle. You're nothing more than a utility, and once you decide to forgive them for pretending to love you you only validate their choices and give them permission to keep doing it.

If you want to cheat on your partner, the only honorable thing to do is just be honest and break up with them. It's certainly alot better than sneaking around behind their backs just to fuck somebody else. I've never been cheated on, so I can't say I know what it's like, but I imagine it's heartbreaking.

2 years cheated on.

I've been in so so many relationships and the longest one lasted half the time you were being cheated on. So 1st of all respect on your dedication. 4 years is a serious achievement.
What I wanted to ask is how come it took you two years to notice? Was she that good at covering her tracks or you were just not that close?
We were close but it was complicated. It's not like she was out sleeping with someone else every night. It apparently wasn't common, I don't know. "Having feelings for both" kind of situation, which really means you don't have real feelings for either. It's easy to be confused about how you feel though.

Thanks lol

No I was never cheated on, but I was only in a couple long term relationships (roughly 7 years for one). My favorite (it just gives me a laugh) are the people who's significant other leaves them for a member of their own sex, leaving them with the feeling that they've turned them gay. I'd think that would be worse.

You're not understanding mental illness. When people succumb to it their mind becomes warped and they can do the most irrational things. Compound that with your partner who's drunk and lacking willpower with a close friend. If she's been pushing you away you can then see how she might have been led to cheat on you. Understanding the heart of the matter and trying to resolve things would be my goal.

Yes it's a serious betrayal and I would be hurt immensely, but I don't think the idea of always breaking up with her if she cheats is necessarily the best way to go about things. It becomes even more of a delicate situation if you have kids.

In your example, your partner has already been pushing you away, so they're indicating they're unhappy in your relationship. At that point you and them need to figure out what the problem is and if it can be resolved. Apparently this does not happen, as they then go out with a friend and get drunk and sleep with that friend. That's a strong message that they don't care and already considered the relationship over, they just were too cowardly and that you meant so little to them to give you the common decency of breaking up with you first. Alcohol is not an excuse. I don't even see where the mental illness comes in. Having a drunken fling with a friend while your relationship is on the rocks is not a mental illness.

I don't see how remaining in this toxic relationship with such a petty and selfish person is a better way to go about things than taking the obvious hint, salvaging a modicum of dignity, and moving on with your life to find someone who might actually care about you.

Yeah, things get more complicated when kids are involved, but that's no reason to stay with someone who doesn't love you and actively hurts you/puts your health at risk. Kids with divorced parents are better off than kids in families where the parents hate each other, constantly fight, and/or are abusive.
