If you are married (or at least engaged): - Have YOU cheated on your spouse? - Or has HE/SHE cheated on you? - If unmarried, has a parent or close family friend of your's?I hate this subject, but would really appreciate hearing a bit of your story. I wanted to make this survey form, but since I'm not experienced starting up discussions yet, can't figure it out. Apologies.

I have never cheated on my man and I know he would never cheat on me. We love each other too much to even think of doing that. In my opinion, if you do not want to be with someone then you shouldn't be with them, if you want to be with someone else breakup first. I have friends who have cheated on their spouses and have trid to come up with excuses for it, but really I don't think there is a good enouh excuse.

Amen. I agree so much. It's so sad how many cases end up with cheating (hopefully not multiple cases like Tiger Woods, of course with 13+ affairs). But so glad you have a happy marriage with forever love which is how I wish things could always be. Thanks for responding

I wouldn’t tell you! (LOL) Seriously I have never cheated on anyone but my ex did cheat on me although I didn’t find out until after we separated so it just confirmed my decision! It’s not a pleasant subject regardless of whether you were the cheater or the cheated. I don’t know if you are going to get a lot of admissions of guilt...t will be interesting to see what responses you will receive...

Paula! Good to hear from you again. :o) Sorry to hear about your yucky ex. No, I have NOT cheated and I am not married either. But have had very difficult times with other very close people, and it makes me sick on how it goes. I want to hear about others to know there are others out there, not that it is forgivable. ;o)

hi loen210 I am glad you did not make it in survey form as thats a no no in mylot rules so you did this the right way.I am so glad that I can say our marriage was never marred by either one of us cheating. we loved each other and best yet we were also best friends so we trusted and confided in each other all the time. i did not cheat and he did not cheat, we did love each other and worked to keep our marriage alive and vital.I was married for 43 years, a good marriage despite ups and downs. 'I am now a widow for many years but have good memories.

Hatley, Oh good to hear from you, my ole friend! It's been a long time sinc eI have really kept in touch or posted on here. Thank you for responding. I was also happy to hear about your wonderful, well remembered relationship you had with your dear one. I just wish it was like that in the rest of this world. (And thanks for the note about the survey form, which I didn't know.)

Oh wow, I really wonder how many people will come here and admit that they cheated...

That's true. But I hope so. At least perhaps those who HAVE been cheated on, or know of their family member cheating, then they'll tell. That's what is I suppose private in this place, as many of us do not know the other directly, personally. ;o) I also realized I only have 4 friends connected on here, so many people will miss this posting. :o( ;o)
