QOTD

What do you think about the statement once a cheater, always a cheater?  Do you think it's true?

    Hmmmmm.  I've never been too sure about this one.  I feel like the tendency would always be there, but I also believe people can change.  So I guess I don't think it's true.

    I agree with PP. I used to be a cheater and I have never cheated on my fiance. I chose to change and not continue that behavior in our relationship.

    I believe it's more of a selfish thing than a cheating thing.  I think people cheat because they're selfish.  They don't care in the moment about the other person in the relationship, just about themselves.  I believe that people can grow out of being selfish but they have to grow up first.

    Though I believe that people can change, in my experiences the "once a cheater, always a cheater" has been more than true. All 3 of my ex boyfriends cheated in relationships previous to ours and cheated on me. My FI never cheated on a girlfriend and well, we're engaged. I am the same as FI, never cheated, never will. So it's hard for me to say that I 100% agree either way. :|

    J, I have to agree with you. Cheaters are selfish.

    I dunno. I don't find it hard to not cheat on my husband, so I expect the same in return. Neither of us has ever cheated on anyone. I really don't get the mind/mentality of a cheater.

    I think I'd be pretty unforgiving with cheating, so I tend to agree with "once a cheater, always a cheater." At least for me. If someone had cheater on a past SO, I would seriously consider whether or not I wanted to be involved with that person.
