Have you ever cheated on a significant other in a relationship?

Been there, done that, and it is highly not recommended. Everyone gets hurt. It is not worth it.

I grew up with a father who continuously cheated on my mother throughout their marriage. He even had a child with the only person my mother disliked.

Because of this, i would never even consider cheating on my significant other.
I know what it can do to a family.

My left hand has never cheated on my penis.

fuck relationships. fuck feelings.

Why do men feel so justified in cheating, but come down on women for it?

Yes, once. It turned out badly for both of us. Not a good move, and not proud of myself.

When I was young I was a big huge cheater. Then I came across the world 'polyamory' and I realized that the way I see relationships is actually a real thing that people do. From that point on I've never 'cheated' because I've never agreed to a monogamous relationship. I've learned to be upfront and honest about my expectations and demand the same of all of my partners. It's awesome that way.

I am currently engaged and me and my fiance have an agreement. We have cheated numerous times on eachother but we always come home and spill the details to one another then ussually end up having sex with eachother. I sometimes feel terrible about this but after a couple weeks I want different dick. I love my relationship/s

Yes, I have cheated. I'm not proud of it and I had no excuse and would not do it again.

I wanted to see someone else and he was making it impossible for me to break up with him, saying things like "I'll kill myself if you leave me!" and things like that. Took my weeks to finally get through to him that I was done with him. Mainly because he was nuts, which I am sure you can guess from a guy that would threaten to kill himself to stop his girlfriend from breaking up with him.

The second guy, I wanted to break up with anyway because he was a pussy but everytime I tried to break up with him he would cry, cry, cry... He was extremely subservient and that was just... weird.

I love my wife, absolutely adore her. I've always 'cheated'. I've had sex with men and women (and my pillows) since I got married. As long as I don't get emotionally involved I've been very happy!

Never have. There was a time when I was dating and I have considered it. I was in love with the Woman i was dating, but the sex was just flat out horrible.

Monogamy is man made and actually doesnt really matter. Would holding hands be classed as cheating, ie touching of skin, but if penis touches vagina (again touching of skin) then this is considered cheating.

i dont see it as cheating. i see it as broadening my horizons.

Me and my husband didn't sleep together for 9 years and in that time we both had a string of affairs but we did it on the terms that we never get into serious relationships with the people we're with and if we did it had to be love. when he died last spring over 215 women came to his funeral it pissed me off a little but at least in his last 9 years on earth he had fun. It didn't mean we didn't love each other we did it's just we weren't compatible sexually we have 3 kids and after that we stopped having sex. It was fun while it lasted, but as long as your safe and honest its not cheating its an agreement

No And i Wouldn't but would talking to someone about sex but your not actually doing it be considered cheating?

I was with a married man and I cheated him with two men (on different occasion and one at a time) but that's not really cheating because he was cheating his wife with me.

Cheatings not something I would do, it's like a promise that gets broken. How can you expect respect, loyalty & unconditional love if your no good at simply being truthfull. If you are unfaithful you might as well know that you will end up alone & possible carry the title of liar, cheat & being a horrible person. My advice don't cheat!

We are not naturally monogamous. I love my wife but would like other sexual adventures. I wouldn't have feelings for the women, just sex. I'd be all for an open marriage but I don't think she'd be cool with it. She isn't nearly as sexual as me.

Shit.... That was posted in the wrong category... Apologize for the ignorance
