    so i kissed somebody else while me and him were ON A BREAK he considers this cheating, fair enough.

    but why do we cheat, i know all the usual - missing something in the realtionship etc etc.

    but there must be some actual explanation?

    i just want to know so i dont go doing it again.

    Did I walk in on an episode of Friends? :confused:

    There is no such thing as a break btw. It's usually a trap. You fell for it.

    Either it is a test of ones character to be in a relationship and not cheat or else we humans are simply not supposed to be monogamous.

    It's quite simple really. People want what they can't have. It's human nature. If you feel that someone is forbidden, it makes them even more irresistable. The key is to realise that the truth is, you can be with somebody else if you really want to. But maybe that means you can't be with the person you're cheating on anymore.

    The reality of that 9 times out of 10 makes the other person alot more resistable.

    Because we start to get bored. It's not rocket science.

    Oh and that "break" stuff is utter nonsense. People are either together or they're not. It's not realistic to take a hiatus from a relationship and go off shagging/kissing other people - it completely cheapens the relationship.

    Ya ain't cheating on mother nature ;)

    Sure if you're in an open relationship it's not cheating either, so just stick to open relationships. Problem solved.

    i dont know if you would even class it as a ''break'' i agree with you all that they are stupid.

    he basically broke up with me told me to move out, i did, went out got drunk and kissed some randomer, he then decides he wants to get back together, i told him about the kiss, he then deides that we were in fact not broken up and he didnt mean what he said and how could i do that to him etc etc.

    Tell him you changed your mind and decided to take back the kiss!

    Exactly! If you're not adult enough to sort out your problems without taking a break then you shouldnt really be in a committed relationship.

    Ok so he broke it off, kicked you out and you got back with him? Time to move on me thinks!

    Hmmm...I'm not expert on anything.....but....he sounds like a big girls blouse....

    He had a hissy over you kissing someone while you were "on a break" (broken up).

    You're much better off rid.


    He'll probably step on a worm and write about it in his diary, how it made him feel, then post a letter to himself saying its ok and that he's a special guy.

    He'll then cry and drink his own tears in the dark.

    You're better off, now go get drunk and ate the face of some lad in copper face jacks.

    Doesn't sound like you waited very long after ye broke up for you to get off with somone else.
    Depending on how long ye were going out he has every right to be upset.

    Friends is deffo showing its age. I feel so sad for ever having laughed at the jokes. The "break" concept is the most ridiculous lump of bull ive ever heard

    <RANT>
    Relationships are like colouring books - Its your own choice whether you want to colour them in to suit your own vision of the pictures. In reality, they are black and white - you either like the other person or not. And you practice what you preach. I like you = I'll treat you nice. Not "I say i like you, so ill get drunk and forget myself with someone else."

    Bollocks. If it's a break or a break up then she can kiss/screw whoever she likes. There's no waiting period.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,035 ✭✭✭homerun_homer


    The whole point of going on a break is to make the relationship more complicated. People think it's to help but seriously they are joking themselves. You return to the relationship all petty and jealous with each other because you do crap like that.

    i suppose i only see it as a break now coz we did get back together for a while, at the time i thought it was finished for good and i suppose i was ''vulnerable'' and low and all the usual post break up lark.

    Fook that. He dumped you and turfed you out, you moved on (albeit quite fast) and now he's not happy?! He doesn't get to decide how you deal with him dumping you. It's his own fault tbh.

    I only posted in this thread with some in your face advice to spice it up a bit,

    you wanted the excitement, the brutal honesty,

    You crave it!


    You all do.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,732 ✭✭✭Reganio 2


    Don't worry about it you will move on find a new fella and in 20 years you will think "Oh I wonder where that muppet is now", then you will here from your mate that he is now in fact gay and living in a flat above a spar.

    Problem solved :D

    Fair enough but if he was seeing her for, say 10 years. They have a falling out and he thinks she should move out (I'm guessing he owns the house).
    He has every right to be pissed off with her if she goes out that night and gets off with someone.
    There may not be a waiting period - but if my girlfriend told me it was over and started kissing someone right away, I'd punch her right in the ovaries*!!!

    *(That is to say I'd be pretty upset with her)
