honestly what do you think the whole purpose of cheating is? have you ever cheated or been cheated on? It's hard to understand why people are committed or married if they are going to cheat! What is your thought on this?

"It's hard to understand why people are committed or married if they are going to cheat!" That's just it. I don't believe that a person really is committed if they do cheat. I don't see any real purpose other than to find what they want. And I think cheating just proves that they've lied about what they really want. I've been cheated on. I think it was one of the most devastating things to happen to me.

I don't really know why people cheat. I have never been cheated on or ever cheated someone so for me it's hard to understand it. Sometimes people cheat because they don't have the courage to say to the other they don't love them anymore. They don't feel happy with their husband/wife or girlfriend/boyfriend and they prefer to be with someone they like. For me, if you don't like that person anymore, you just have to say it, there's no need to cheat. You just end the relationship and start another one. I've already met a guy who cheated his girlfriend and he said it was just for fun! I thought that was ridiculous, I mean, hurting people just for fun? Because if you are cheating someone and that someone still loves you, they are going to be hurt. He was like, 'I'm the best, I can have lots of girls around me and date them and they are so stupid they don't even know about the others'... I just ignore those people, that's what they deserve.

for me me there is no such thing as " purpose" why some people have to cheat, because cheating is a act of being dishonest to someone u love.most women react blindly when they find out that there husbands are cheating on them they let anger, hurt or a desire for revenge compel them to do things and later on will regeret. before doing such things try to ask yourself first and check if what have u done lately to make him do that to u. and after that if u find something is wrong with u try to work things out and talk to him. we are not living in a perfect world so we can never have a perfect someone we all make mistakes and cheating is one of the common mistakes that we make.

As we experience lifes difficulties and dealing with things such as cheating spouses you begin to realize just how unintelligent and immature a percent of the people are. Granted we all make mistakes (even us) but its all a matter of ethics and knowing your boundaries when dealing with others emotions.
