Maybe I'm niave... but I completely disagree... some people will screw around (and I don't personally think it's the majority either) and excuse it with a variety of reasons one being they can't help their biology. However if it is a biological fact that humans are not meant to be monogamous how can you explain the exceptions to that? There are lots of people female and male that wouldn't even think of another person whilst in a relationship. It is a fact, that I have never cheated on anyone, and would never dream of changing that fact. that is the only fact I need for myself to know that the evidence of biology being reason to cheat is wrong... you only need one person to disprove it, unless I am biologically strange.
I know that my parents have never cheated on each other, and again those friends I have. They haven't done anything secretly. They just have obviously more moral grounding than the people you know have - if everyone you know has strayed from their partners. I do know some friends that have cheated on partners as well, but that is the minority, not the other way as you are suggesting it. And they don't cheat because they respect and love their partner. I also don't cheat because I love and respect myself.
It's is as everything in the world and indiviual choice, to suggest it is our biological make up is to suggest we have no choice.
I think it's quite sad that you've had such experiences that you are now left with such a low opinion of the human race. That you have no faith in people to be honest. No belief that a lot of people have monogamous relationships. Have you lost the ability to trust someone.
personally I think it's wrong... if someones married then they shouldn't be looking anyway... and if the other person actually knows about the persons marriage they should steer clear.. it would be like saying it was ok to cheat.
I would never knowingly date a married man and if I was married I would look to date either... if things had gotten so bad that I was even considering looking I'd be having a serious talk about our relationship, cause something would obviously be a little off.
No... don't go round beating your friends... they won't forgive you eaasily.
I guess, as morgan said there isn't a quick fix, it takes time for the heart to recover from a break... but try and keep busy and not dwell on it too much.
everyone judges people to a certain extent... no one can honestly say that they meet or talk to someone for the first time without having any sort of opinion about the person... what their saying, their appearance... even if it's a nice opinion it's still a judgement on that person.
I wouldn't personally judge someone on a sterotypical veiw of their nationally but I may have an intial prejudgement on where they come from, from previous experiences. I tend to combat this by making sure I keep an open mind and allow myself to change my judgement as I get to know the person.
think it's quite a difficult situation to be in. Some people know when their partners are cheating but prefer to ignore so they can continue the status quo of their relationship rather than confronting the truth, how would I know if my friend didn't want that... if I told her/him I could just be shoving the truth in their face.
I don't know... I guess it would depend on the friend and how long their relationship had been, whether they had kids together. I may go to the partner and mention that I knew and that they should stop.
Like I say... difficult situation... If it were me I'd want my friend to tell me... but only if they definately knew. (I'd want my partner to tell me ideally, show there was still a little bit in him that I could trust so we could try possibly to work things out)
personally I would be curteous and polite to someone because I respect myself and my upbringing...
but I do agree that possible I would say that I give people respect unless they do something to make me rethink it. A comment or action... then it would have to be earnt back.
that's how you what to win someone back... by telling her it's your genetic makeup... christ guys have been using that for so long... and I'm still not sure where they found there creditable proof and results from.
men and women cheat yes... but it doesn't make it right for a man to do just because a woman does it...
Are you in a culture where men have harems and many wives... no, so how is that relevant?
I personally, am a trusting person... but I do think it's laughable how you are using your 'last' chance with this woman. You may as well just say it's all her fault and be done with
I beleive in lust at first sight that grows into love as you get to know them.
how can you love someone you know nothing about though?
I guess it is in a roundabout way possible over the net now, if you got to know someone without seeing them, feel in love with their personality and then when you first saw them, loved the whole package... love at first sight.
within the metaphor though, for me I'd say classically after reading fairy tales I would presume the frog to be someone less attractive and a prince to be someone attractive.
but in life I would say that I normally a prince is a pretty average guy that has a personality that completely clicks with yours and visa versa, he's kind and funny and wants to shield you from danger
A frog would be someone that I completely can't stand, that is rude and arrogant and selfish...
I truely believe that if someone is a lovely person their looks improve, where as a horrible persons look diminish.
I'm not completely sure if that makes sense... but it did in my head so
