I have never cheated on my partners. I just don't get the point of cheating. When I'm with someone, it means that I'm into him, I like him and I care about him very much. When I have a boyfriend I do need other men, because he is enough to make me happy. If at a point we begin to argue and are bored with each other I just end the relationship. I know that the other person might get hurt but I think it's better to end it at the moment you understand things are not going well. It's just not fair to lie to the other person and make him believe that you still hav a chance together.
And if my partner cheats on my....well, I prefer to don't understand about it, because it hurts pretty bad, and I don't think I can forgive this thing.

I have never cheated on my husband. But have had the opportunities. One opportunity has been presenting itself over the past year. The man who I share 'indecent chemistry' with is a colleague. Because we see eachother at work, it's impossible not to interact.
We both have felt the 'temptation'. Neither he nor I have pushed for anything more but it's a common understanding between us that we appeal to each other.
There is no way I could ever cheat - my conscience just wouldn't allow it. I could never hurt my husband like that, I love him too much. He's a good man and he loves me. So nothing will ever happen.
But I do see how it can be easily done. Some people think that a fling won't hurt. They can hold onto their lifestyle with their partner but get some physical satisfaction elsewhere. It would be especially easy if their partner was not caring or didn't show affection. People who are starved for those things will go elsewhere, but not want to risk the financial loss of divorce.
There are many reasons people use to excuse affairs. I can't judge them. I just couldn't do it myself.

People do it coz its the thrill of the chase that attracts them - the challenge of being able to pull the other person. Once done - the thrill is gone and they usually find they dont want the new partner anyway - hence they go back to the old dependable boyfriend/girlfriend whatever. They keep with the long term partner because most are afraid of ending up alone.

Never cheated on my partner, never really wanted to, depsite having met and been wooed by some very attractive and interesting men! My partner is my best friend, and we have such a lot of fun together. No quick roll in the hay with some stranger is worth losing that over.

I have only ever done it once. I didn't sleep that night and knew that if I could do that to him I wasn't meant to be with him so I split up with him the next day (after 3 1/2 years) but didn't mention the incident (don't tell him).
I don't think I could ever do it again.
I believe the people that can have less of a conscience than me and like to both have their cake and eat it!

Some of people cheat on their partner because their personal needs and desires are not being fullfilled.
Others cheat because they enjoy the thrill, passion and excitement of being intamate with someone new. They also enjoy the secrecy of meeting up and getting away with not being caught!
Either way, having an affair with someone behind your partners back causes a total lack of trust, honesty and plenty of betrayal!

Never cheated on my partner or any previous partners. It's easy not too - No is a shorter word than Yes.

I've done this in the past and it was because I was with the wrong person. Often people don't split up because they have just become a habit.

No I'm not and never have, probably because I've been treated like that in the past and it's the most hurtful thing in the world.
