It doesn't matter... either way he's a pig and a jerk and doesn't deserve my time of day. I was cheated on before... not by my current hubby, but by an ex. It was devistating and terrible. I still have trust issues. I don't think you can ever be the same once you've been made to feel like a fool in that way.

One is just as bad as twenty. Several affairs are not more wrong than only a single affair. If I had a significant other that cheated on me, I would be devastated no matter how many people they had under their belt while they were with me.
I consider a relationship sacred, and when two people commit themselves to each other, that is forever. No one and nothing should come between them.

I am starting to think I phrased it wrong when I wrote it. I guess it's not about the general 'wrong', it's more about WHICH situation would bother you MORE. Oddly enough, this was a question proposed on a morning radio station I listen to and I was curious to see how it would fare here. The majority of women were more angry about ONE affair, which most said would include an emotional connection. The MEN were more upset about 20 affairs, because they couldn't stand the thought of their significant other sleeping with 20 other men. Now do you understand the gist of the question? LOL!

Wow, that is really interesting. It seems the women didn't mind more than one because there was not an emotional connection, and the men didn't like her being with several others. How intriguing.
I would mind-one or twenty doesn't matter to me. Either way I have been cheated on and I couldn't stand it.

Well, which would bother you more? That your significant other has made a deep emotional connection with another person.... or that they indiscriminately 'enjoyed' 20 other people? What's worse, multiple physical connections that really meant nothing, or one serious emotional connection?

what an interesting question. I think rather it's one or 101 and one the pain that they would step out of your relationship is so painful. i mean does it really matter? i don't know. i would have to be in that situation to really give a honest true answer.

I think it would be easier to forgive something that truly meant nothing, so depending on what it meant to the other person, that would determine my answer. HOWEVER.....I don't believe that any person can give totally 100% to more than one person, meaning you cannot be in love equally with two people, so the emotional connection would be the kicker. That is one reason I don't 'get' how people could ever have multiple spouses. How in the world could that even be handled fairly? I suppose if each of the people involved had varying expectations, I am too selfish and there could be no others.

If i found out my partner was cheating with 20 other guys then i would think that she's a wh0re. If i found out that she's cheating with only one guy then i'd think maybe there's an emotional connection between them. It really varies.

I think it would be worse if there were more than one involved. If they had 20 indiscretions that would tell me that there is no way they are ever going to be faithful again as they have a real problem!
One I could understand and perhaps forgive, but 20? No way

I'd prefer he NOT cheat at all!!! 
Having been married to a cheater, I can tell you that #20 hurts just as bad as #1. Actually it hurts worse because by #20, you realize he just ain't gonna stop...it makes it more personal!!! With #1, you tell yourself that anybody can have a weak moment & it will be the ONLY time it happens. By the time you get to #20, you've run out of excuses!!! They ALL hurt like hell!!!!

I would think that 20 women would be alot worse than just one
one could be just a lapse in judgement
but 20?
