cheating spouses or love ones.

I have never cheated anybody but I was cheated and came to know about it only when he passed away. This was all the more devastating because there were so many unanswered questions.But I had 5 small children to clothe,feed and educate and they were my priorities. In a way, I was thankful for this knowledge because it turned my hatred into something positive.I didn't give myself time to mourn as I quickly bounced back and went about my new roles as both father and mother to my children. There were lots of adjustments to do. But I made sure that my children never suffer from my attention. Now they're all grown up and I'm happy to say, excellent young adults. And the other woman? The last I heard of her is that she's not faring well and has actually jumped from one man to another practically selling herself.

I would never cheat on my significant other, I don't know, I guess that's just the way I am. I truly believe in what goes around comes around, aka Karma. When I hear about people cheating, it makes me sick.

I've been cheated on. A couple times actually. Never cheated on anyone, as I know how it feels and don't care to be the source of anyone's emotional deathblow. Why did it happen? That's a good question. I don't think I ever really got a good answer to it. I don't think there actually is a good answer to it. It's certainly made me a lot more skeptical about people. Took a long time to open up to my current girlfriend, but fortunately we're one in the same when it comes to feelings on people that cheat. It's working out quite well =) The first time, I actually caught the chick with the guy. He looked scared as could be (I was much bigger than him). The two of us had a quick discussion. I realized he didn't know about me, and upon finding out about me he was quick to cut off the relationship. Somehow, I was blamed for ruining everything. Funny how that ended. I'm friends with the guy now. Second time, the girl had just moved off to school. Ironically, we'd had the discussion about whether to continue the relationship, or make it an open one. She pleaded and pleaded about how she'd be faithful and I had nothing to worry about and blah blah, so that was the plan. Her third day there, and I find out from one of our friends that she hooked up with some dude. Very ironic, as the night the hookup took place, I was being jested by my buddies for obviously missing the girl. For all of the "I'm sorry"'s, she didn't get much of a response. I have to admit, I was pretty cold when I last spoke with her. "How could you do that?", "What were you even thinking", "Glad to see I meant so much", and the finale that "I don't care if I see you again, we're through. Don't ever bother calling me again" It hurt quite a bit. I was certainly more caught up with this chick than any I'd dated previously. Looking back, I can say it wasn't love. It was close enough to really cut deep though. I'm certainly glad I said my piece when I had the chance, and wouldn't take it back for anything. Knowing I'd made her feel a fraction of how bad I did was somehow comforting in some twisted way. So yeah, that's my story. What brings on your question? Ethical dilemma or reeling from a cheating ex? Stay strong and move on. Learn from your mistakes, and keep on keeping on.
