There is no heart connection, there is no spiritual connection, there is no emotional connection...there is not a deep friendship, the relationship is superficial, or based on physical and the communication has broke down.
Those who are connected at the heart would leave...end it maybe but not cheat, there would be enough repsect to be honest and walk away..

Cheaters all have some serious issue commonalities:

Low Self Esteem

Ego Hit Addiction (Needs associated w/ that low self esteem)

Disrespectful

Selfish

Self Centered

Arrogant

Cruel

Shallow

Spiritual Disconnect

Hole in the Soul that NEVER gets filled

Broken Values/Moral Code

Passive Aggressive

Addicted to Crisis and Drama and Trauma



I could go on and on ... This will suffice ... Read: Serious Issues!

I have never cheated on anyone I've been with.
But I don't think that clears me of having serious issues! laugh

I've never cheated and I'm quite sure I have issues...
not so sure that cheaters are intentionally being cruel though. It is cruel to the one being cheated on, not thinking they are doing it to be cruel, selfish yes, intentionally cruel no.

Couldn't disagree more ... That's just making excuses and repenting for them, imo...

Home Wreckingly cruel and callous!

I've been cheared on and I never felt he was doing it just to hurt me...never felt it was to intentionally hurt me.


The Four Agreements...
one is to not take any thing person that others do, so I strive to live by that. Anothers issue's may not have anything to do with me. So therefore I don't take much as a personal, vendictive, or intentional slam at me.

Life is better that way..it's not always all about me, I'm fine with that. I can't control others choices, only my reaction to them.
I'd rather be happy than right....

Why do you think people cheat? Not whether it's right or wrong or what you would do, but why.


Short answer...egoism. They want what they want, when they want it, and they don't care who they have to hurt to get it.explode

The cheater's actions say nothing about the person they cheated on's self!

Has nothing to do w/ the victim of the crime ...

... And I do see it very much as an attack of the relationship, so a crime of breeching trust and all that is sacred ... QUITE sadistic!

Esp., these days when it can actually come home and even kill ya w/ Hep C and HIV ...

surprised ... That is potential murder!

... I've worked w/ and buried many of 'em too ...

Nah ... Can't "nice" this one up in any fashion, cheating sickens me!

I stick w/ my list, and echo I stopped there ... they've many more issues usually ...

And other addictions as well!

Actually I feel they get caught up in the thrill of the moment at times. Maybe the other person made them feel alive or they found and attraction there they have not felt in a while. And totally loss all senses.

Not sure anyone really knows my ex said one thing lead to another she flirted he flirted back before ya know it was hot and heavy by what he said it was not due to love just and attraction that got out of hand.

Of course when it happened once and they get away with it then they feel that they want get caught....noway wrong thought for sooner or later it will catch up with the one that is cheating.

Sad for it destroyers so many lives if only they thought twice and tried to bring those feelings back with the one they are with.

It is not always sex I will vouch for that for even after 11 years of marriage sex was still very much alive with us no less then 3-4 days a week sometimes more.... whoa

A strong sexual desire that cannot be met with just one partner?


I'd say that sums it up. Let's not overthink this....It seems pretty simple.

IT WAS!

I hate to become the enemy here, but I have cheated once, (I wasn't married), but sometimes the heart just wants what it wants. My lady and I were drifting apart, and I met someone who was interesting, and good looking and........

As alien as it sounds to me I know it's true that some people actually think they are entitled to cheat. Some because they were cheated on, and a few men actually claim it as a birth right, something they can not control and so cannot be held accountable for.
