    Would any of you consider cheating on your girlfriend/boyfriend if you knew they would never find out?? Like if you were on holidays or something??

    I hate all people that cheat. I dunno why they bother do go out with that person in the first place if they are just gonna cheat. Ok everybody gets the temptation to do it but you need self control if you really love that person.

    Anyway would you cheat if you could get away with it???

    Post up your reasons too


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,922 ✭✭✭Dave


    Personally I wouldn't. But what other people do in their own time is their own business, aslong as it doesn't effect me it's their choice.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,048 ✭✭✭Lainey


    ehhh. kinda afraid to in case get attacked :D

    i didn't vote on it cos i have done it before but am pretty certain i wouldnt do it again cos i felt so ****ty.. didn't get caught but still felt crap..

    I have cheated.

    The reasons are complicated, ranging from "emotional" reasons to simply being a drunken male.

    I had the chance back in October when my then g/f was away in college and after one night of drinking a friend of mine (I knew she liked me for ages) basically offered me sex, no strings.

    I turned her down, I hate cheaters

    If you're going to cheat what's the point of having a girlfriend/boyfriend (in the conventional sense)?

    Why not just have multiple sex partners?

    I understand it can be a hormonal issue for girls to have boyfriends but, guys, if ya want to play the field then the least you can do is quit tying up the other team...

    I think it depends on what kind of person you are.

    I'm a caring boyfriend, but I'm also a very sexual person, so I have slipped up a few times.

    I never go out *trying* to cheat, but if there's enough alcohol, if the girls hot enough, and if... I guess... I'm in the mood, it has happened.

    Although, the majority of cases where I've cheated, it's been with an ex.

    Or, one time a very good looking friend of mine wanted to have a threesome with me and another girl. I simply couldn't turn it down, even though I had a girlfriend at the time.

    If you're in a relationship with someone you should do everything in your power to protect it. And if you're really in love, you won't notice anyone else. Cheaters will burn in hell.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,048 ✭✭✭Lainey


    so you cheat on someone one drunken night..

    somehow i doubt very much your name be one the front of the list to get into hell... now i may be wrong there... don't quote me at the gate ;)

    I disagree. You can be in love and... sometimes... cheat.

    For example, an ex of mine, I still love her (although like a sister now), yet I cheated on her a few times. The reason was generally because she simply didn't like sex (it's a long story.) I tried my best to stay faithful, but after 6 months of no sex I was going to explode.

    It really depends on your situation, and your opinion of sex.

    Don't you feel bad about it? I mean - I have cheated before as I'm sure most people have at some time in a relationship & I have to say that I felt terrible .... so I told my b/f .... he was upset but he forgave me ... so I did it again!! & Yes before any of you say It was a terrible thing to do... But by that point I'd gotten away with it once so why not?????? Thats is of course until the shoe was on the other foot!!!
    I didn't realise how much it hurt ...... I split with my then b/f after that but I haven't cheated since..... It's not worth it for a couple of mins of pleasure...... :)

    Basically man if you love her you wont cheat coz u dont wanna hurt her. no body wants to hurt the person they love so that will stop you cheating. if you do cheat you dont love her.you might really like her but it aint love.

    If you just want sex then be mates with the girl but dont pretend you love them.

    oh my god.. run, run to the archbishop or somewhere else that has the right to forgive you such things.. aaarrrrgggghhhhhhh..

    seriously.. you made the mistake, you pay for it.. finished.. noones elses deal but yours..


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,166 ✭✭✭Johnny Versace


    Yes I do regret it and I always feel guilty.

    But I'd never tell my girlfriend about it - I think that's a bit selfish. She did nothing wrong so she doesn't need to be hurt by knowing I cheated.

    If that makes any sense...

    ...

    I do not like cheating though. All I'm saying is... I'm human. I've slipped up a few times.

    Also... and I know people are going to go mad now...

    I think when a man cheats it's different than when a woman cheats (:D)

    But that's a discussion for another thread! :)

    Bunch of cheating scum bags. I wish I was Satan so I could kick your arsés when you get to hell.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,166 ✭✭✭Johnny Versace


    Why do I always get the feeling the people who despise cheating/one night stands/any discussion about sex/STD's/pregnancy/abortion on boards.ie are not very sexually experienced?

    So the majority of the world are scumbags?

    Being a woman - I would have to agree with Johnny on this one - Woman think things through a bit more when it comes to this kind of thing & woman can be a lot more clever about it too....;)

    ok fair enough some people are weaker than others coz we are all human but not everyone cheats my man.

    Dont see point in goin out with someone if your gonna do that but hey thats just me.

    If my girlfriend cheated on me there would never be any forgiveness. If you dont got trust ya dont got much


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 16,339 ✭✭✭✭tman


    i wouldn't cheat myself, mainly because i don't want to go down the same road as my father.
    then again, i haven't really been in the situation to test my moral fortitiude recently:dunno:

    I agree with this ... having a healthy sex life isn't a bad thing... being a liar is.

    I wouldn't bother with a relationship if I thought I would act on other interests.
    I would like to be respected in return and know what the others honest intentions are.

    Alot of guys seem to think that they have to be bf/gf in order for the other person to have sexual relations with them. This isn't always the case...
    I'd prefare an honest man over a 'boyfriend' any day.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,166 ✭✭✭Johnny Versace


    I do actually dislike cheating, and if my girlfriend cheated on me I would be very upset. But I do believe humans are human, and people can make mistakes.

    Some people make more mistakes than others. Some people have issues...

    I don't think it's black and white.

    i agree with you here kingp35.. but to go to the level of calling a people whores and scumbags because of it... well, that shows immaturity.. **** happens.. i was cheated on and although it broke me up at the time, i did it to someone myself after.. not proud of it but ****ed if i owe the world anything for my mistake.. :dunno: :dunno:
