Are you a believer the phrase:
"Once a cheater, always a cheater"?

It depends on the person, some people can change but others can not.

Not really. It depends on the situation, but I know plenty of folks who cheated in their younger years and then grew up to be faithful. Cheating in high school (or even college) doesn't mean that that person will always be a cheater. If a person has a real history of cheating, that's a different story, but I think that most people deserve the benefit of the doubt.

i don't believe in that. it depends on the person and the situation.
well with one of my ex bf i dated was know to be a cheater by everyone and they kept on telling me. but for some reason i trusted him i dated him for a year and he never cheated on me. we broke up bc we had different goals so it didn't work out but i don't believe in that phrase

Yes, but to a point. I do agree that people who have cheated in their past are more likely to cheat again, but it is not a given that they will. Or that someoen who has never cheated will not. A lot of it depends on the situation of the relationship, and what if any opportunities that the person may have.
Though given the choice I would rather be with someone who has never cheated vs someone who has a reputation of cheating.

Too an extent it's true. I also believe that folks can change too, if they really want to within themselves. For the most part, I think folks are usually set in a pattern in life and will cheat if the opportunity is in their face. It all really depends on the person!!

it depend upon the situation. if your husband is a cheater and he change after the incident that means he loves you but if he won't change it conclude the phrases.

I believe it to an extent. It is true that the best predictor of future behavior is past behavior. But people can change. It just doesn't happen automatically. Something must happen to make them WANT to change.

No because unforunately I was the cheating party and almost lost the best man that I've ever found. I couldn't chance that again if I even wanted too.

Yes i believe in that phrase.It really means once you cheat you would continue doing it (cheating).It will become a habit when you first start doing it.

Yes, its in our blood and the temptation is just too much. A pretty girl available when I'm horny is just like a plate of steak and fries when I'm hungry. I have a knife and fork and I am gonna eat it!
