Once a cheater...always a cheater??

Question

Answer

In my experience it is not once a cheater always a cheater. It kinda depends on the situation.

When my husband and I were dating he cheated on me with my friend. Horrible. But his grandparents were dying at the same time in front of his eyes, his Aunt had just dies unexpectedly. His life was kinda collapsing his family was all down and he felt he had no control. The one thing he could control was our relationship and what he did. So he cheated on me. I found out through my friends sister. We ended up breaking up.

It was only a few days before we got back together because he came to me at a different friends house with a rose and chocolates and told me he had made the biggest mistake of his life and that he truly loved me.

We are married for almost 8 years now. We have had ups and downs, but relationships to me is about deciding if love is worth fighting for and making it work. For better or worse.

He has never cheated since then. So for me I believe it is situational and not always once a cheater always a cheater in my opinion.

Answer

Absolutely not justifying cheating... But there are lots of reasons why people cheat, and it's not usually just because they have a "wandering eye".  
​
​It often starts because of a problem in  the existing relationship.

Answer

I don't agree me and my husband both had relationship with other ppl not physically but he did make out with the other women and we split and had our away time and decided to work it out and prayed and tried to get our lives straight and we're back together and couldn't be happier.  I would never cheat on him again and I trust him 100%. We both learned from our mistakes and made out marriage stronger than ever.  We have been married 8 years and have a 9 yr old and trying for another one eventually if God wants it to happen.  We bought a house and are trying to start a little farm.  I thank God and everyone prayers for us working it out.  I live him more than anything!! It took us straying and being separated to see what we really wanted and appreciate each other, because we took each other for granted.  I try to show him everyday I love him.  EVERY marriage and relationships will have problems but work thru it and if it's meant to be it will.  Me and my husband has been thru SO Much And we doing amazing  ☺

Answer

50/50. I'll be honest I've cheated on ALL my exes 😞 not proud. But now been with the man of my dreams for 2 yrs and I never have, and have no desire whatsoever, to cheat on him. I guess the others just weren't "man enough" for me. The feeling wasn't deep enough and also I guess it proved that I didn't respect them enough. That being said, all my exes also cheated on ME! I don't har our ill feelings anymore, I'm over it now because I understand it now: they didn't love or respect me enough either. Bottom line - if it's the right person, a "cheater" will not want to cheat on that person. If it's not really the One, anyone could cheat, with or without a history of cheating. Someone who has never cheated on a previous partner, may well end up cheating on a new one simply because the love isn't the right kind! So you can't say "once a cheater, always a cheater" but you also can't say "once faithful, always faithful".

Answer

Once a cheater always a cheater, in the same relationship.

I am a firm believer that in a different relationship with the right person the person isn't necessarily going to cheat, and if they do they are more than just a cheater, it's almost an addiction, which doesn't excuse it. In my opinion, most cheating happens because the person is bored/unhappy in their relationship. I cheated on several boyfriends actually until I met teo of the right people. One then cheated on me, and the other is my current SO, and I believe the man I am truly supposed to be with forever. I could never even fathom cheating on him, and I have no reason to.

Answer

If a different relationship maybe someone wouldn't cheat. But if he cheats once and you take him back there's. HUGE chance he will do it again, because you allowed it to happen the first time. I've cheated on people when I was young 18 and younger but now that I'm 28 yrs old no I don't do that anymore

Answer

I think that it's a touchy question because for some it depends on the situation, others the person. Some people just can't be monogamous. It totally depends.

Answer

I just read a scientific article that spanned twenty years and it basically states that cheating is a habit. This was a study that excluded extenuating circumstances such as a loss in the family

Answer

I think that once someone cheats ON YOu they will always cheat ON YOU bc they have no respect for you.  Now should that person find a SO that they do actually love and respect, I think that could be different, but, I still wouldn't trust it.  It's just such an immature, shitty shitty thing to do.

Answer
