Or does it.?
Do you believe , once a cheater, always a cheater or would you give that person the benefit of the doubt & give them a second chance..
Before you come to any conclusions and judge me , this question isn't about me, it's more a general question.
Have you been in that situation?

Geez, you sure got that Mediterranean double standard thing happening. You'd tap somebody elses wife, but dump a girl for straying?

Innocentia00122: We are all different

First you get to know somebody well and then you love him. I remain with someone who loves me just as I am and makes me feel loved and feel free. And this includes that he is so intelligent and has such an educated heart and mind that there of course would not be any health issues.
I know it is hard to understand. It would be weird for me when somebody would tell me he loves me and at the same time he would tell me "but you can´t do this and that", and so I also would never want the other one feel restricted.


As long as on on the same wavelength, it's nobody's business how you & your partner live your life but what is intriguing, is what would he have said if the boot was on the other foot.. In other words, if you had an affair with another man. confused

Jees.. I'm beginning to sound like a feminist.frustrated laugh

That someone is my partner means we love each other and know each other. In my case that means that what maybe for him is to have physical contact with a third person for me is discussing maths puzzles unrestrained with a third person smile
I would never long for another man to have a physical affair with.

I believe everyone deserves a second chance, but trust must be one of the most delicate issues to deal with. Once broken and given both parties are willing to try and maintain the relationship, it could take forever to repair.

With every mistake, however insignificant, the relationship takes a step back, not sure if it is worth the effort...

Which is why communication, is so important in a relationship.

I can't stress enough how important it is in a relationship & things generally start going wrong when there's a breakdown in it.bouquet

I talk to someone in regards what is important (and expected) before starting a relationship.

Cheating wouldn't be tolerated by me - as it wouldn't have been by the guys I was with.

Haven't been in the situation but can't imagine ever wanting to touch that person again.

No. First I talk and get to know somebody. He is not my partner then. And when everything feels perfect (and this is after knowing he is fine with how I am and what I wish and I am fine with how he is and what he wishes), then we become partners, and we don´t have to give the green light for anything because everything is already clear and even something that we like in each other.
Now it´s all clear, I think. beer

That's very moralistic of you but I'm sure he would have been touched many times before you even laid a finger on him.bouquet laugh

If it would be that easy someone would just leave and not cheat. wink

The whole point of the cheating and hoping not to be found out is still trying to have someone to go home to. That wouldn't be the case in the scenario above.

Cheating is for people who are trying to prove something.. I've learnt over the years that good women are hard to come by & if I ever get that chance again , I wouldn't jeopardise losing her over a meaningless one night stand.bouquet

I've known people who have cheated in one relationship, but when they go into the right relationship for them, it wouldn't enter their head to cheat.

So I don't agree that once a cheater always a cheater.

I don't think one mistake by your partner deserves the boot sort to speak...but that depends on the willingness to forgive...seen people use it as a way to get back at their straying partner...the anger still festering...and is quite embarrassing to watch...
