So the thing is, on almost every test I write, I cheat on it. Doesnt matter if its English, Math or any other subject, I always find a way to cheat.
Now here is my question: After I cheat and get a good grade, I dont feel bad AT ALL, the opposite actually. I feel pretty damn proud of myself...now is this normal?
Congratulations you have learned the most valuable skill in life - and at such a young age too! And if you're not caught, it didn't really happen, right? If a tree falls in the forest and no one's there to hear it....well you get the point.
You will rise far and high as an unscrupulous cheater once you add other skills to your repertoire, such as: plagiarizing; back stabbing and ruthless lying.
The corporate world lies at your feet... enter with head held high, oh dark prince ...
Probably not normal.
I did have a good laugh when I read that you feel proud of yourself for getting a good grade after you cheat - and I don't mean that in a bad way, I actually laughed pretty hard.
The fact that you are questioning it means there is a part of you that doesn't agree with it on a moral level. But your way of doing it has been paying off so far (good grades without trying too hard), so why change your ways, right? Obviously the consequences are not enough to deter you.
You may get away with this in school and you might even get away with it one day in the business world, but know that all of the people who don't cheat to get ahead in life will resent you and may even blow the whistle on you too. Also, as you get older, the consequences will become more severe and you might even end up in jail.
So, try challenging yourself to make it without cheating. I promise you that if you get a good grade without cheating, you will feel far more proud of yourself than you would by faking it.
If your asking, then you have doubts. If doubting, then you have mixed thoughts. Mixed thoughts = you DO feel something about this. Your just like a kid, whistling in the dark thinking it's all good.
its bad to cheat.just imagine your spouse does the same.how u will feel?does not matter if u get caught or not,u still do it.in my opinion don't cheat if u don't want to be cheated to.
I never feel guilt even when I do bad things to those I care about or just bad things in general. It's pretty cool.
There's ways to solve problems in real life and it's not called cheating so yeah it's normal
im exactly the same. i worry bcos i dont feel bad at all and i dont really worry about getting caught either! i dont think its particularly normal thou, i consider myself a nice person too but sometimes i really dont care when i lie and cheat and i do question my morals, or lack of! its just that its fun and i get kind of a buzz or a thrill knowing im doing something wrong and getting away with it. i think everyone feels like that sometimes but its probably not normal to do it all the time. maybe you should try and work out why you do, what you get out of it and how you can stop it, i know i need to bcos it will probably just get out of control and u may end up in a lot of trouble. on the other hand you would be well suited to a career in banking or the government.
If your cheating to get bye then that's what you gotta do and if it gets you good grades then you should be proud cuz you got great grades bye putting half the effort in id say that's a success work smart not hard
You are only messing yourself up in the end. You should want to "know" most of the information for yourself and not depend on others to help you..but I think you have morals!
at the end it doesn't matter how you got there, but the fact that you got there
