Relationships are really very interesting and yet frightening. Cheating almost always breaks a relationship. Have you ever cheated? When I was not married yet but had a boyfriend already I fell in love with another guy and had a fling but I was still serious with my original guy. My boyfriend - now husband - knew later when we got married as I told him. Have you ever done that? If so, did your partner know?

I have never cheated on my boyfriend before and I can never see myself doing it. I would like to believe that I would break things off with my current boyfriend before I pursued anything with anyone else. I think it is a major respect issue when you cheat on your partner and you have to ask yourself how would you feel if they cheated on you? I agree, most often than not when a partner finds out you cheated on them the relationship will be over. You are an example of something that can happen if you don't tell them and it only goes so far with this other guy. What did your husband say when you told him? How did he react? I know personally I would not be happy and I would feel very betrayed. But the two of you got married for a reason so hopefully I'm assuming the two of you love each other enough that you worked through this skeleton in your closet. Everyone has skeletons in their closet and some of them could be ones concerning cheating. I think cheating will always be an aspect and a big temptations in any relationship no matter how strong your bond is with your partner. These days it is too easy to get tempted. We want to have our cake and eat it too so to speak. I do believe cheating is wrong, but everyone makes mistakes and every situation is different.

I have never cheated on my wife. When I was younger and stupid I probably did with a few girlfriends. I say probably because I am not going to claim anything that could come back to haunt me. I would never cheat on my wife. I got married rather late in life because I wanted to be sure I found the right person and had all the stupid things I might do out of my life. I needed to grow up first.

Yes that's true. I was young and reckless and immature at that time (I was 18 that time). I have learned my lesson and has matured since.
