S/O Cheating

Have you ever cheated on a SO?  Feel free to divulge as many details as you.

Re: S/O Cheating

  • I cheated on a couple guys in high school where we had a fling, but never in a serious relationship.
  • Yeah.... Once with my boyfriends brother.. that was bad.  But that was just immaturity on my end, as I was really only dating my bf to get coser to his brother.  Then once again..one of those cliche nights of too much drinking and partying and getting caught in the moment.  I was a bad person.  Lucky for me I finally grew up.   
  • Never have and never will. It's just not my style. I have been cheated on though, which really hurt.

  • Nope.  But admit I wish I had.  There was a professional football player I so had a crush on and he kept hitting on me and asking me out.  I never did.  Only a few months later the football player was traded to another city and I caught my BF cheating.   I always wondered what it was like to be with him.  






    What differentiates an average host and a great host is anticipating unexpressed needs and wants of their guests.  Just because the want/need is not expressed, doesn't mean it wouldn't be appreciated. 
  • many years ago when i was living with a guyi went out drinking and dancing with 2 girls and we all ended up making out a lot... nothing TOO serious but just enough for me to go home crying my eyes out to him and begging forgiveness. he couldnt have cared less. i felt guilty about that for a couple years.
  • Yeah... I've been on all sides of the cheating triangle. Done the cheating, been cheated on, and been the other woman. It sucks for everyone involved - no matter what side you're on.
    Holy Crap. We survived the first year!

  • I've never cheated, but I have given my number to a guy while I was in LDR with FI. Mainly I just was trying to make friends, but he was really cute and I was intrigued by him. So I don't know. FI wasn't happy about it but he also never really called it cheating.

  • Yes, and I don't feel bad about it.When I was seventeen, eight years ago now, I was in my first year of college and "dating" FI's best friend. I use the quotations because what I didn't know was that he had a girlfriend back home (I thought she was his ex) and he was cheating on both of us with each other, but badly as the guilt made him a very bad and inattentive boyfriend. He used to always tell me that he knew I had a crush on FI too, and would ask me if I thought FI was hot, and then would tell me that if I liked FI so much I should just go hook up with him. So one night I did.And now we are getting married.

    Wouldn't it be nice to live together in the kind of world where we belong?
  • Nope, I couldn't. It makes me sad even thinking about it.
  • I cheated on my ex FI but it wasn't until someone cheated on me that I regretted cheating on him.
  • When I was in highschool my LT boyfriend broke up with me so I started dating someone else, when he found out he was jealous and I started sleeping with him again even though I was dating new guy. New guy found out and we obviously broke up. Me and old guy started dating again and then I somehow ended up sleeping with new guy again. They both hated eachothers guts and it was wonderful for my ego at 17.
  • I've never wanted to cheat on FI, which is why I'm marrying him.  But yes, I cheated on other boyfriends and I don't feel bad about it.  It obviously wasn't going to work out anyway.

  • Yeah. I was 17 and he was.. older. Me and my boyfriend stayed together too. We should have ended that relationship right then and there, but we were young and "in love".
  • I think I physically or at least emotionally cheated on every boyfriend, except my last 2 (one being my husband). I got bored very easily and never took any of the relationships seriously. It sucks. I was a jerk, but you live and learn.
  • that if I liked FI so much I should just go hook up with him. So one night I did.And now we are getting married.I love it!
  • I have never cheated but I was cheated on by my ex-bf.....with one of my employees. It was a miserable time at work for me since she and her friends would try to make my shifts as miserable as possible so I would lock myself in the manager's office.
  • It is hard to say. Before H I led a LOT of guys on. I never officially committed to people which would make me feel better about dating other people if I felt like it. I never flaunted anything, but I am sure if my current 'boyfriend' had found out he would have been hurt. It was mostly a game of semantics but I also would not have cared had said boyfriends 'cheated' on me. To my knowledge they never did though. I usually kept them wrapped around my finger some how, no idea. I was pretty wild in the long run. Mike really changed who I was as a person and how I felt about relationships and I would never cheat on him ever.
  • Many times in high school with my boyfriends, but never with my fiance/husband. I was immature. I used to cheat, then break up. Then the last time I wanted to do it (this is senior year of high school), I call the bf up, break up with him, and THEN hook up with the other guy. Hey, at least I wasn't cheating. BTW, cheating for me was kissing, NOT having sex.

  • I cheated on a boyfriend in high school after we'd been dating for about 2 months.  He was being a huge jerk, and we broke up shortly after.  He also cheated on me.Other than that, no.
  • I've never cheated on anyone, but cheated on by pretty much every guy I've dated, ever.  It blows.  I can't imagine doing that to someone else.
  • I've never cheated and never been cheated on.  But the only significant relationship I have had is with DH.
  • I never physically cheated on anyone, but have been cheated on several times in prior relationships. Its just not my style. However, near the end of my last LTR, I did go visit my best guy friend from HS, who I had not seen in about 8 years, and we talked for hours and ended up spooning for a couple of hours until I had to drive back home to TX. My SO at the time would have called that cheating, but it was just comfort and unconditional love that I needed at the time, and I saw it mostly as a close friend gesture. That night made me realize that my SO was not the one for me and I needed to stop wasting my time. I did entertain thoughts of being with my guy friend, but those thoughts fizzled pretty fast. We are still friends, he is married, and I am engaged, and we couldnt be happier for each other.

  • I am totally with Meaghhan on this one. Before my H, I would never really commit to a guy. I always said I wanted to be free to date other people, even if I was spending a lot of time with them. I had several guys from all over the country that I would hook up with when I saw them, for a period of years and years. I even had one in Dubai that I knew since college. So I don't know if it was "cheating" if they were never officially my boyfriend. I was a very very wild girl. I think that is why I will always be faithful now....I never need to wonder what else is out there...I know.

  • Nope, never cheated on anyone. First husband cheated on me with my "best friend." Yeah, ouch.
  • I haven't but I came very close to it with my last bf. I was getting no emotional support from (this is the same wow playing, jobless bum I've vented about before) and Dh was the nicest guy ever. So I would talk to him a lot on the phone when I had bad days and we'd go out to lunch every day at work where I would vent about life. When Dh moved up to Maine (partly to get away from me because neither of us thought I'd get out of my current relationship) I felt like something had been shattered. I broke up with my then bf 2 days later, and Dh and I started a LDR a few days after that.
  • No, but I was cheated on. When I was at the azzhole's house. He practically did it right in front of me. With his ex.FI's ex cheated on her ex with him, then cheated on him with her current boyfriend. So no, neither FI or I have ever cheated.

  • Yes, I have been on all sides of it, like Tide.  I emotionally cheated, physically, etc.  I was the other woman (often), I cheated on bfs, I have been cheated on.  I now understand why I cheat and it was for immature reasons.  The same for why I stole people's bfs.  I wanted attention and I'm competitive.  I don't agree with the phrase "once a cheater, always a cheater" though.  I know I seem like I am exactly that but it's not true.  I think once you identify that A) it's bad and B) why you do it, it can be fixed.  People change.  Some for the better, some for the worse.
