How do i deal with being cheated on?

ok a few months ago my boyfriend cheated on me and i asked him the very second i found out but as all guys do he denied it. so i got the girls cell number and i texted her and asked her if they were dating and she said yes. and i said for how long? and she answered for a year now keep in mind me and my boyfrined has been together for 3. so i told her that it was over between them and if i see her i will kill her. so my boyfriend finally admited to me that all they did wa shave sex but she was still callin him so i called her and cursed her out and told the ***** that if she didnt stop i would go to her house and beat her a**. i dont know if they still talk but some thing is telling me theres something goin on. i just want to be happy and not worry. and the worst thing is that he never tells me where he's going what he's been doing. he said he's changed and my heart beleives him but my mind and my gut dosent belive it. i guess i just need help trying to get that out me head.How do i deal with being cheated on?
Hold your head high and walk out the door and DON'T look back.





She's the one who is blind now.


Your eyes are open, just make sure you actually understand what you see.





Let someone else keep the cheater.


Free yourself to find a man who will treat you better.





Good luck!How do i deal with being cheated on?
he is a liar and a cheat. you would be stupid to stay with him.
dump him.


and girls always do that..


they get mad at the girl who their boyfriend was cheating with. but dont get mad at their boyfriend.


he was in it to!


he was doing it to!


it wasnt just her!


and cheating is never wrong.


if someone is truly and honestly in love,


they wont feel the want OR need to cheat on you.


i think you can find someone better.
Leave him. Thats the best advice. You dont need a guy who cheats and lies! Definitely will take tons of time to heal from it, but you need to leave him.
You need to make a decision......Either you leave himand find someone who can treat you with better respect or turn the tables on him.......Teach him a lesson and go out and cheat on him.....Dat would make me feel better......I bet after dat he will see how much he hurt you and not cheat again
Break up with him. No guy is worth the mistrust and the heart break.
he freakin had sex w/ the girl. break up with him!! dont get mad at the other girl. b mad at ur boyfriend for pretending that u could trust him!!
Leave , he will do it again.
cheating is NOT acceptible! you should totally move out and forget about him forever! he is a cheater and even though you still love him hes been loving other girls sweetie and he prob will for a long long time
Leave that mother f***er!!!! He doesnt deserve you!!! A DAMN YEAR???? I dont think so!!!!!

  • What do you do when you think your husband is cheating on you?

    What do you do when you catch your father/husband(in response to my mother) sending dirty txt messages to a woman named B J, and he keeps denying that he isnt? My mother and I have seen all the texts which clearly implacate more than just a phone relationship and he keeps threatning that he's going to leave. Plus, he's gotten really stingy about helping us with the house bills. He says he tired of paying them. My mother confronted him and has even sent messages to the lady's cell phone. Because I got the number off it and reversed the phone call. Has anyone here really dealt with a cheating husband, and how did you get past it?What do you do when you think your husband is cheating on you?
    You being a child depending on your age should not be worried with this. This is something that your mom needs to deal with. If it is not bothering her then don't let it bother u. If your parents are the type of parents that you can sit down and talk to, I would let my dad know that I know what he is doing and that it bothers me. I would also talk to my mom and tell her that she may need to also talk to my dad and let him know it is bothering me. Sounds as if there is some cheating going on and dad needs to make up his mind on what he wants!!!What do you do when you think your husband is cheating on you?
    he doesn't sound like he cares one way or the other. he sounds like and ******. tell mom to leave or to kick him out w/ his woman would be better
    You and your Mum should start quietly planning what you want to do next. You sound mature enough to be strong and support your Mum through this, and help with decisions. You both need to ask him to leave or you both leave and stay with family or close friends till you can find a place of your own and move on in your lives. It is very unhealthy for both of you to stay in this position, and moving on is the best option. New life and new beginnings. I guess it will be hard for you both, but even if your Mum has a break right now, it would be the best thing and then if they want to fix things up, they can do that slowly with the help of counselling and family support. Be strong and take care.
    If the person you think you love is in a relationship with another woman, believe me, you will never, ever be able to trust him again. Give him and all of your bills to his girlfriend as you kick him out of the door. He is not worth the time or trouble.
    First of all...what a jerk! Second, if you mother is seeing these things not only shouldn't she be sharing them with you, but she should be confronting him privately. If he threatens to leave why not let him go if he is unwilling to help with the bills, and there is clearly some deceit.


    Tell your mother good luck and that he's a ****** jerk
    I would not be with him if that were happening. I am lucky because my husband is very conservative, plus I am younger so I do wear him out. some folks here may tell you to not butt in, but I am different because if anyone messes with my mom messes with me too. Tell that ho to back off or you will kick her a***!
    kill him i quess :P
    You are an enabler. Dont get defensive. It happens to many of us living with an addict especially an abusive addict.


    There are shelters. Sure they suck to go to at first but they help you find a place to live on your own and help you get jobs or education and get your bills paid. THey know short cuts and have lawyers available and other ways to help you.


    Women used to stay in abusive situations because they were trapped. There was no way out. THese shelters make it possible for them to find hope...a light at the end of th etunnel.


    HEre is a quote by Ernie lawson I really like: ';The reason we sont let go of what we have is that we dont believe something better is in front of us. So we hang on desperately to what was. Until you let go you dont get the beautiful stuff that can be. In living that truth where things can get beter they do get better.';


    Take your mom and attend al anon classes to understand enabling and addiction. It will empower you. You wil learn so much. Good luck with this.

    After dealing with a cheating spouse, how do you rebuild your self esteem?

    I am separated, and dealing with ups and downs, but more ups now that i'm gone than downs. I do know I'm very attractive, but I also know if I meet a guy, I don't know how NOT to give my all, is that a self esteem issue, how do I change from being wifey to gf. I don't know how to date, or just do nothing. I t's like I have to do. ex my gf had a cook out, I spilled my drink, he husband grabbed the mop and started cleaning, I said no I spilled it, so I will clean it up. Then later that night, I bought liquor for everyone, it just felt good inside, later that night her husband said, try not to be so giving, men see that as a weakness. But for me its a strength of mine, I do my kids the same way, and NOW that I'm single do it to myself (giving). Is that something I need to work on, if so how?After dealing with a cheating spouse, how do you rebuild your self esteem?
    I don't think being giving is a weakness, I think it's a beautiful attribute. What can be seen as a weakness, is probably not being assertive, taking responsibility for other's mistakes and generally being too apologetic.





    Having self esteem is all about recognizing your personality traits and being secure and confident in them, without shooting yourself in the foot.After dealing with a cheating spouse, how do you rebuild your self esteem?
    you are you and thats probably not going to change. being a giving person is not a sign of weakness and its not a fault..if all people were that way, the world would be a better place.


    its not your fault he cheated..the bastard! youll pick up dating as you go along, just be yourself. there are probably a million men out there just waiting to love you just the way you are.
    I was the same way giving to everyone till one something went wrong. From then I became some I didn't know no more. Sometimes gets good to change but not alot. Yes going back to the dating game is hard after being out of the game for so long. Just take your time. go out with friends and family. When you lest expect it, it will show up.
    If what you say is true, you need another name other then sassy.


    Just know that men will like you without going all the way. I suspect ( by your message) that might be what your really talking about. Being a giving person is a great quality. Not found in enough women these days.
    Try to remember what it was like when you were dating. Just sit back and enjoy the company of someone else, let them treat you nice and go from there, after awhile you will become relaxed and start to enjoy the dating all over again...good luck
    You need to get laid. Quit being so giving, and take what you want.





    Peace.
    get divorced, quit drinking
    date others
    Just date different people....you will get the hang of it. I don't see how being giving can be a sign of weakness......
    Don't change who you are. That is the biggest mistake you can make. After all if your pretending to be someone your not down inside then how are you going to ever meet that right man who loves you for who you are? I know how hard the whole separation thing is as I'm just recently separated as well. Honestly I don't know how to do the whole dating thing again either, other than you just go for it and figure it out all over again. I've found the best thing to rebuilding self esteem is to just talk to people and let people get to know you. It may seem a bit odd but even a stranger in a chat room can make you feel better sometimes just by chatting. It doesn't have to even lead to anything it can be just good company and someone who builds you up.
    When my ex spouse cheated and I dumped and divorced him, I did not have to rebuild my self esteem because I knew him cheating had nothing to do with me. He cheated because he was and is a loser.





    I am a powerful woman with a huge amounts of assets and I didn't need anyone to tell me this...its what I know about myself. I have a lot to offer a guy and I am true to self.





    You have to find your strengths within yourself and KNOW it. Don't let anyone tell you what you are; KNOW what you are, know that you are beautiful and a good person and go out there and make yourself a good life.
    There is nothing wrong with being a giving person. You need to just be yourself. If a man finds your generosity to be a ';weakness'; then that is his problem. I really don't believe that all men feel that way. Just make sure that you don't overextend yourself or do it just to try to impress. But giving from the heart is just kindness. As far as your self esteem, remember that the person who cheated is the one with the problem not the person cheated on. And when the time comes that you meet someone and go on a date, just be yourself. Be the same way you would be if you were out with your gf. But try to take it slow and don't give ';your all'; away too fast. That can be intimidating to a man or some would try to take advantage. So each time before you offer up something, stop and think, is this something I really want to do. Could this person get by without my help? Really weigh all options before offering your services.

    Dealing with my cheating girlfriend?

    So basically I've put a post up a while back about how my girlfriend cheated on me (sex with a guy) on spring break. She also kissed a guy a few back ago that I know personally and she knows I HATE (He tried breaking us up a while back)





    Anways, I just have a weird feeling like I dont want to look her in the eyes sometimes and something is missing. I want to forgive her make things right but a part of me feels like it'd died and I don't feel the exact same about her that I used to before this happened.





    She seems like shes truely sorry, but it seems like one thing after another...I dont wanna be completely heart broken again.





    What advice do you guys have?Dealing with my cheating girlfriend?
    My advice to you is to break things off already, you are a fool if you think she will ever change her ways, just as they say once a dog has tasted flesh it's lust for human blood is unquenchable, it's going to hurt a lot but it is better not to be stuck with somebody who will hurt you for the rest of your life, find yourself a decent girl, some who ACTUALLY DESERVES YOU.Dealing with my cheating girlfriend?
    I think you need to really think about your relationship. If you can't forgive her for cheating on you then chances are it won't work, no matter how much you want it to. In all honesty, i think the best thing you could do is take a break to get your head together and decide what you really want (maybe you should advise her to do the same). If you realise that you really can't forgive and forget then you should call it quits to spare yourself anymore heartache.


    I hope everything works out for you. Good luck.
    I'm in the same situation right now my bf of 5 yrs never cheated but he has messed up so many times in a row. How many excuses can we handle? Is this really what you want to deal with later in life? if you want to stay with her give another chance and then if anything happens again it's done how bout that? see if she will really change you deserve that.
    i honestly think u should break up with her once she does it she will do it again and that gleam thats not there when u look into her eyes is that u dont know her anymore is insecurity.i think u should have a clean break up and tell her that u understand she sorry but that it would be best if you guys were just friends
    if my girl ever cheated on me, i'd dump her.


    even if she just kissed another guy, my trust in her would be completely destroyed.


    so if she slept with another guy and kissed a few guys, dude, get rid of her you dont need that.
    i'll be honest with you, if i were you, i never would have taken her back. She betrayed your trust, and i find that unacceptable.
    youve already forgiven her more than once. obviously, shes made a habit out of it. if you stay with her, shes going to cheat on you again.
    Why stay with her if obviously that she can not be trusted. There's a lot of fish in the sea.
    get a new girlfriend it's that simple

    Alright, i think i finally need to seek some outside help on a girl problem?

    I've known this girl for a while, jackie, and while there's been different periods in our friendship, some points where we're best friends, I just can't shake the ';friend'; image. About 2 years ago, I was crazy about her, but the problem was she started dating this guy who incedentitly was dating about 3 other chicks, and fell ';in love'; with him. At this point i was maybe one of her closer friends, but not really too much. Well as all things must return to their natural state, she eventually unblinded herself to what he was doing(something i helped with a little, hehe) and broke it off that summer. Well at this point i was starting to date this girl who was my best friend at the time, a girl who was jackie's best friend(lets call her ';kara';) also, but she screwed me over shortly later, b/c like jackie, she couldnt get over her ex(still cant to this day). Well jackie helped me a lot at this time, finding a common ground between me and kara, so me and jackie became extremely close, i would stretch to call her my best female friend, but at this time I realized I only seemed to want jackie when she was unavailable, and i didnt think she saw me more than a friend, so i never made a move during this period where we were both single. Me and jackie remained very close throughtout the next year and i don't really know what was holding me back, b/c once she started dating another guy, I seemed to want her again, something a pal of mine pointed out frequently. But throughtout this one year period i continually talked to her about her inability to let go of the original guy who was cheating on her, and her feelings didnt change when she dated the new guy so I begun to give up, b/c after kara I didn't want anything to do with a girl who absolutely couldn't forget a past ex. Well about a year after she broke up with the guy(the original one she couldn't get over), the following summer, she started to cozy up to him again, as though she was oblivious to his girlfriend, a fact not lost on me b/c i noticed a pattern, whenever she started getting closer to him, i.e. that period 2 years ago i said at the top, she started almost pulling away from me. She changes a lot when it comes to him. Well fast forward from last summer to today, she's going out with him, again, and me and her have virtually no contact. How do I deal with this? After kara i went into jigalo mode and haven't pursued a serious relationship since, but if there's once person I would have a relationship with, it's jackie. But i fear like kara, jackie is a lost cause and not worth the energy or the chance of this blowing up in my face. But it feels like i'm too late this time b/c now shes locked in on this jerk, and I feel like i blew whatever chance i may have had. I wish we could at least be friends again, but for whatever reason, she's holding back on that. Believe me, i'm not stuck on her, holding out for her in other words, i'm just saying the only person i would want a serious relationship is with her. What do you guys think? What should I do? Or not do?Alright, i think i finally need to seek some outside help on a girl problem?
    awww , wow ! go look for her. true love man. hopefully she won't do what kara did. just dont give up on her.. an if things dont seem changed. then just move on. bhut yu seem to really like her. sounds like shes not worth giving up so GO FIND HER!Alright, i think i finally need to seek some outside help on a girl problem?
    move on past the past.


    find someone you can be friends with or more than friends with,


    it would be the same with a guy friend, once you have found no common ground, you would move on as well, maybe?

    Boyfriend talking to his ex..confused?

    Before me and my boyfriend went out he had just gotten out of a relationship with his ex, and use to talk to me about it. I told him to give it another shot to try and work it out...He did, and it didnt work out. So me and him continued talking and eventually started going out, it had has been a year and four months since we been going out.


    He knew I felt uncomfortable with him talking to his ex so he cut her out complete for me. However he use to say that he loved me but he felt bad for her life , and guilty for how she tried to kill herself after he broke up with her. And he would say i dont want you thinking i like her i just feel really bad.. So i told him that if he felt guilty to go and apologize to her if it would make him feel better. What i meant was one email, and i saw that he couldnt do it he just prolonged there emails back and forth so i told him not to lead her on and just end talking to her. Then after a while i found out he had been emailing her for 4 months straight without telling me having casual conversations, her talking about her father passing away and such, and her askign him to hang out to which he didnt not respond too. He did not tell her he had a girlfriend, but once i emailed her she said that she never wanted him back that she just accepted his friendship.


    Then i told him that he could leave if his heart was really with her after i found those messages and that i would be okay. But he told me that he loved me and not her, and that if he really wanted to be with her he wouldnt have broken up with her, and he told me that he always told me throughout our relationship that he didnt want her. So his reason for not telling her about me was that she was mentally unstable and would try to kill herself which she tried before when she got alchihol poisning and that he did not want to hurt anyone.


    He gave me all his passwords to all his accounts now and has blocked and deleted her. Before that i had talked to my ex behind his back without thinking it was such a big deal never cheated or anything. So I believe I cant hate him. But I find myself telling him to leave constatly if his heart belongs elsewhere but he doesnt. So could someone please help explaining whats going on in his head?Boyfriend talking to his ex..confused?
    Sometimes, you just have to believe him. Like maybe she knows about you, and she is jealous so shes trying to get him back. Ask him if he knows anything else, and just say please please be completely honest.Boyfriend talking to his ex..confused?
    If you don't trust him, then don't be with him. If he is telling you that he loves you and not her, then believe him if he hasn't given you any reason not to (ex: cheating, lying). I think you are going to eventually drive him away if you keep telling him to be with her. You are acting like you don't believe him and that hurts. Put yourself in his shoes. There's 2 things you NEVER do to a guy (1) Criticize him in bed (2) Criticize the way he feels about you. Honestly, I don't believe that he should have to give you the passwords to all of his accounts. Just forgive and forget and live a day at a time.


    Hope this helps. Good luck!

    My cousin and i were walking around this old house and then we sat on this couch (patio) and we stayed there for a lil bit watching ppl walk around. When we stood up it was me but my cuz disappeared and some girl was there that i considered my friend (unknown person). A car went by that was (5 seats) and there was a guy in each 1 like friends and the 1 in the passenger seat nodded at me (flirting) and the ';friend'; that i ddnt know tried to pull me away but i waved and winked back.... later we were just suddenly at a garage and watching a slideshow on how dates went and i was in a pic with a dolphin (i dnt no how the hell that came in) but i left even after they apologized 4 making me upset... then i ended up outside stumbling against a brick wall and i put my hand on the corner (somehow i thought some1 was there) and next thing i knew the passenger seat guy put his hand over mine and i jumped but i ddnt no whether to trust him or not.... i woke up if u no anything lemme no cause i havnt had a dream in while and im so confused and extras i hav been having boyfriend problems and it deals with cheating and trust so idk if this is y it suddenly came or what thanks xoxo heatherHelp with understanding a dream.... please give serious answers ?
    Thanks for interpreting the dream for yourself my friend. You see, everything that is happening is not really that important. You know what is important and i was paying attention to was you and the person you were connected to. That is all and obviously you said what I wanted to say exactly that the dream means. The boy may look like however he wants, you may like him or not, you may flirt or whatever, but this is a sign of your trouble with friendship and falling into the wrongs hands all the time. You tend to fall for everyone who shows you smile and few attracting words and you're all set up. You supposed to be more sophisticated and careful of people you let into your life and make the right decisions that come from your mind, not your feelings and what another girl said. I tell people, a guy in a dream means someone not good for you in real life specially if you like that guy in the dream. If you don't, it means you are aware of that person in real life. So don't be tricked sometimes by the dream itself.


    Anyway, you've learned lessons in your life and from now on, you got to change the game rules and take sometime to explore who you are and what you want in this life and then start following those principles.Help with understanding a dream.... please give serious answers ?
    !st of all I think your friend is actually yourself trying to protect yourself. You might not be listening to your own gut feelings. Also, you may have been in self denial of problems with your relationship. The guy that is flirting with you is obviously your boyfrnd. Being in the old house is like being in an old or ending relationship. Hope this helps.
    hmm... very interesting

    If your Significant Other has Sex with Another?

    This is not about being a swinger, or dealing with cheating.





    In this question, the idea is specific to the idea of how you see yourself, with your significant other.





    To dive in, if your significant other had sex with another, what would you do?


    Lose respect in them? Be mad at them? Would you want to hurt them? Would you kick them out of your life? Would you try to harm them?





    Now that you are ready to carry out your plan, is it because you have issues that you are afraid of, like silly little fantasies that never happen but sometimes get played out in dirty talk, or perhaps insecure that if your partner could disrespect you so much, you cannot love them anymore? Not to limit it to those answers, what do you feel?





    An interesting thing I see with some guys who find out, want to ravage their mate, and then leave them, to perhaps conquer them by having sex. If you really get down to it, people can develop a lot of interesting motivations in such a situation.If your Significant Other has Sex with Another?
    You have to get to the root of WHY did they cheat in the first place. I would need more information to really answer the question properly.


    I like to analyze and look at things from all angles.If your Significant Other has Sex with Another?
    I'd probably never speak to them again. I'd have no respect for them anymore. That's the one unforgiveable sin in my eyes.
    I can't really imagine my girlfriend doing that because she always says once a cheater always a cheater. I would be really mad I guess but I don't think it would stop our relationship because she makes me happy and I see me with her for forever.
    I would lose faith, and be very hurt. I might give her one more chance, but she would have to work for it. Trust is gone in an instant, and takes time to rebuild. I would do nothing of revenge. I wouldn't be very mad, but I would be VERY hurt.





    But, I don't understand the next part. It doesn't flow. ';Now that you are ready to carry out your plan, is it because you have issues that you are afraid of, like silly little fantasies that never happen but sometimes get played out in dirty talk, or perhaps insecure that if your partner could disrespect you so much, you cannot love them anymore? Not to limit it to those answers, what do you feel?';


    Would you please be more specific, and redirect it to flow better? What plan? (Thank you ahead of time.)
    I have experienced this, and yes it hurt me badly. There is a difference between love and sex. If you can have both then you are doing well. I was more disappointed because I had faith in them, and I had a trust. You see it is not the act with another as much as it was the loss of trust and respect. When you hold someone up to a standard and they fail you then you get hurt. Fighting back is a knee jerk reaction, but only makes things worse. Good luck
    We would have a long talk . then I would make a decision.

    How do you get over and ex when you have a child with that person?

    Me and my daughter's father were together for seven yrs.I had been with him all my adult life and was devastated when two months ago he choose to leave the relationship.Things have not been right for a long time and I have dealt with cheating and disrespect but I still was hoping that we could make things work because I truly do love him even though he doesn't deserve that love. My problem is that after two months I do not feel any better.I still think about him every single day and I still feel so depressed and miserable.I barely go out and my only friend is tired of hearing me talk about him. When he comes to pick up his daughter he usually wants to just grab her and go but i sometimes try to prolong the visit and try to make conversation but it seems forced on his part and sometimes I will call him and tell him that our daughter wants to talk to him when really its just so i could hear his voice and see what is up. It's to the point where I am truly wondering if I need some kind of psychologist because I feel like I am truly obsessed.I think he is seeing someone else lately and I want so badly for that not to be true.I'm not sure what I will do if i found out he moved on to someone else or if he ends up marrying and making a family with someone else it just hurts so bad to even think about. I am a single mother and I am also a stay at home mom so i feel like maybe that has a lot to do with the situation maybe I have to much alone time to think about him.I have tried going out with my friend and 9 times out of 10 I am still thinking about him even when i am supposed to be having fun.Any advice from anyone who has been through something similar it would be very helpful.


    Thank you in advance!How do you get over and ex when you have a child with that person?
    well maria,





    you dug yourself into a rut, Now you need to take a deep breath. You have a man who cheated on you. You will need to file child support on the guy. I am sorry that you are a stay home mom. Just to let you know, you made the choice, the consequences are the choices he had done. He bolted out on your relationship because of some difficult reasons. You will need to file child support on him.How do you get over and ex when you have a child with that person?
    well i think your behavior is totally understandable. you were with him for 7 years so its going to take you a lot longer than 2 months to get over his sudden departure. i think it would be a good idea to talk to a counselor and delve into the issues that this relationship has left. a few sessions with a counselor may give you the outlet you need to get over this guy.





    i went through the same thing with my daughter's father. i wasn't obsessed with talking to him though, but I did think about our relationship a lot after we broke up...i kept analyzing what went wrong and why he left, but after a few months I got over it and realized that he probably did me a favor by leaving. and i'm totally glad that i'm not with him anymore b/c he is a terrible person and rarely calls to check on his daughter much less sees her.





    it feels like the world is crashing around you but soon the fog will lift and you will be able to move on with your life. its perfectly okay to grieve for something that you lost...you're entitled to that, but just don't forget about the little girl that you have to take care of. grieve for the lost relationship and then pick up and move on.
    think of all the times he hurt you, how bad did that make you feel?dont you think you deserve better? yes you love him and you probably will always hold a candle for him, you created life together, BUT THATS IT!!! i know its hard but you need to try to stop thinking about it and him, he hurt you when you were together and he still has the power to hurt you now, yes he is probably seeing someone else, maybe it'll last, maybe it wont, but one things for sure if you two do get back together the relationship wont be the same. think of yourself and your daughter, you need to be by yourself right now and for a while to come, dont try jumping into another relationship that wont work, give yourself time to appreciate what you had (however good or bad that was), and what you hope to expect from someone in the future,


    you are strong and you deserve better than what this guy did to you, he cheated on you and treated you with little respect, and i'm sorry to sound harsh but you let him treat you that way, all because you love him??


    good way to get over him is to feel angry, that should stop all that i love him, i want him back,


    cuz if he comes back he'll treat you worse and ultimatly make you feel worthless!!


    you deserve better keep telling yourself that!!!!


    good luck

    How would you have handled this situation?

    Ive family friend of 7years.We were interested in eachother till i decided he wasnt one for me.So i used white lies to end it.He found out white lies.No big deal didnt cheat on him.We were in touch online never met in person.I try to be friendly with him but hes mean picking up fights for no reason telling world about private things and conversations.So i thought i would try to make peace with him for good.What do i do to make peace with this man.Hes in love with me but im friends with him.How would you have handled this situation?
    Online love? From his point of view and you want to continue? Sounds like a scam. If it's not don't worry about it. Part of the lonely life of living your life behind a keyboard. It's just best to stay there some timesHow would you have handled this situation?
    You do not want to be friends with someone that will tell the world everything that you talk about and then claim that you are in love with them, that is just mean and col-hearted. The best thing for you to do is to tell him that any feelings that he has need to stop and that you do not want to be friends with him any longer and you want no contact with him because of his mistrust. Let him know that you want nothing to do with him til you can trust him and forgive what he has done to you. Let him go girl!
    Just tell him. Say ';I'm sorry, but I just don't think of you as anything more than a friend. I told you the other stuff so I wouldn't hurt you. I'm sorry, but I can't help how I feel.';
    If he is still in love with you, why the fights?
    if it's only an online thing, it's easy.............just stop emailing!!





    set him up with another and tell him good luck
    Stay away from a mean man ... they will kill you from the inside out!

    PTSD from husband cheating on me?! help!?

    My husband cheated on me while I was pregnant.I talked to him about it and agreed to try and work it out, but it has been so hard. I feel so betrayed and hurt. Our baby is 9 mos old and I just can't seem to get over it. I am so sad.





    Someone suggested I might have ';Post Traumatic Stress Disorder'; (PTSD) from it...like, it was a trauma in my life and I can't get over it...?





    I'm not too familiar with it and could really use some advice. Anyone ever dealt with a cheating spouse like this and felt the same way? How do I cope? PTSD from husband cheating on me?! help!?
    Turn Your Lights Down Low- You clearly don't know what you're talking about. Just because you copy and pasted from the DSM-IV, doesn't make you an expert. YES, PTSD after something like this is possible. I'm an infidelity couples counselor, and I've seen it in patients. People think of PTSD, and they normally think of combat PTSD. It isn't always like that. What is a ';traumatic event'; differs for everyone. Is your spouse cheating on you traumatic? Yes! For many people it is. For some, it isn't a trauma big enough to trigger PTSD. It depends on the person, but it does happen, and I have seen it. There is no clear cut list of ';this is traumatic'; and ';this is not traumatic.'; A colleague of mine consulted with me on a case where a teenager was diagnosed with PTSD from being lost in a park when he was 5 years old. Being lost in a park doesn't sound very traumatic to some, but to others, it is traumatic! Furthermore, abuse is definitely considered traumatic, and many professionals consider infidelity to be a form of emotional abuse. I really wish people on here were more careful about their answers, rather than speaking without any thought research or education on the subject. Yes, you can develop PTSD from an event like this, it's very common.





    One thing you don't mention is flashbacks nightmares or night terrors. This is one of the basic core hallmarks of PTSD. We really do not diagnose patients without PTSD unless they are having flashbacks, nightmares, or nightmares about the event. It's the classic symptom of PTSD, to relive the traumatic event over and over again. You don't mention it, so I can't say for certain, and you really give very little details, but it is possible. You could also be experiencing depression or anxiety related to it. It all depends. Regardless, you need to get into counseling. If you aren't already, get into couples counseling, as well as individual counseling. Obviously your relationship needs worked on, but you also need to work on your own issues with dealing with this. Even if you don't have PTSD, you need help in moving on from this. I hope that helps.PTSD from husband cheating on me?! help!?
    This isn't even close to PTSD, this is a normal reaction. I can't believe someone even suggested PTSD.





    The diagnostic criteria for PTSD, per the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders IV (Text Revision) (DSM-IV-TR), may be summarized as:[1]





    A. Exposure to a traumatic event


    B. Persistent reexperience (e.g. flashbacks, nightmares)


    C. Persistent avoidance of stimuli associated with the trauma (e.g. inability to talk about things even related to the experience, avoidance of things and discussions that trigger flashbacks and reexperiencing symptoms fear of losing control)


    D. Persistent symptoms of increased arousal (e.g. difficulty falling or staying asleep, anger and hypervigilance)


    E. Duration of symptoms more than 1 month


    F. Significant impairment in social, occupational, or other important areas of functioning (e.g. problems with work and relationships.)
    It's really, really hard to get a diagnosis of PTSD from an experienced psychiatrist, but that is where you need to go for help if you think you have it.





    If you do have it (or any one of many other mental health issues), the recommended treatment is medication.





    So, please contact a mental health provider today. Do it for you and do it for the baby.
    A lot of thoughtless and worthless men do this when they cannot get it at home because the wife is with pups,you will have your hormones all over the place afterwards and all sorts of things can plague you without the thoughtless actions of your espoused prat.Most women give them a second chance,fortunately my daughter binned her husband as being surplus to requirements,she said she could only respect strong men and that is not the way a strong man behaves.
    Please do not compare your painful feelings with PTSD.





    PTSD is ';shell shock'; and ';combat fatigue';. Women can get it also, but generally it is from a brutally violent rape or seeing someone die.





    You have not experienced these things. You're hurt and mistrustful.
    they said marriage wont last without TRUST


    okay what if u give 100% trust to your partner


    and time pass his cheating you,


    men's cheat if they knew that u have alot of trust with them


    suggest dont full trusted


    i love my husband so much but i dont give fully trust


    love and trust are difference,men never understand woman needs....
    I don't think you have PTSD, you're just hurt and betrayed. That's normal when you've been cheated on. You may not ever be able to make your marriage work now that there is not trust. I think it's great that you are trying, though.
    absolutely get into therapy. PTSD can most certainly be an issue- regardless, this is an event you are having difficulty getting over or moving past. Therapy will help.





    Good luck to you and your family.
    It could be a combination of things and experiences you've had in the last year .. try a councilor ... it can help .. all of you.
    you'll never feel at ease until you forgive him. if you can't forgive him alone, try counseling.
    See a therapist.
    NEVER EVER take a cheater back! Your gonna regret this one.
    dump his ***!
    I can almost assure you that you don't have PTSD. What causes PTSD is any event that is life-threatening or that severely compromises the emotional well-being of an individual. Such events often include either experiencing or witnessing a severe accident or physical injury, receiving a life-threatening medical diagnosis, being the victim of kidnapping or torture, exposure to combat or to a natural disaster, other disaster (for example, plane crash) or terrorist attack, being the victim of rape, mugging, robbery or assault; enduring physical, sexual, emotional or other forms of abuse, as well as involvement in civil conflict.





    You're more or less suffering from marital break down. Even though you've stated to your husband that you'd try and work things out you can't move beyond being hurt and betrayed. You don't have trust in your marriage any longer. Even though you may feel that you've forgiven him you've not forgotten what he's done. It's very easy to forgive someone when they've hurt us but it's always hard to forget the hurt we've suffered. Unless you can get beyond that you're not going to be happy and you will feel the sadness and depressed.





    If you've decided to stay with him because of your child, that's really not a reason to stay. I'm not encouraging you to seek a divorce what I am saying is you need you time. You need to remove yourself from where you are and him to have time to think and heal. If you have a family member or a friend you can stay with for a while then you need to do so. If that's not an option ask him to leave since he's the one that created the problem, if he wants his marriage to work then he needs to do whatever to get it back on track.





    I'd also suggest that you speak with someone in the medical field to help you get beyond what you're feeling and thinking. You may also need to go to a marriage counselor with your husband. Perhaps if he explains why he felt the need to seek comfort outside of the marriage it may help you get the answers that you lack. Him cheating on you during the most beauitful time in a marriage is crazy. It's already done and hopefully over now, you have to decide what you want from your soiled marriage.
    Im not sure if it would qualify for ptsd unless maybe if its highly extreme such as it effects your daily life, your in constant tears over it, you have trouble functioning on a normal level and it takes over your every thought. Bt instead of giving it a name, its defiently stress. You tried working it out but seems like maybe it was the last straw,.


    has he made any changes to SHOW that he wont be doin it again? Does he not put himself in those situations? Does he not go out without you? If he's making chnages, Id encourage you to seek counceling and really do all you can to get through this. But if nothing has really changed, your still holding the baby while he's who knows where....maybe take a break but dont deny access to your child.

    Should I forgive her...?

    My girlfriend went out of town for the weekend and we planned to keep in touch a little by texting eachother. After 2 days, she did not respond to any of my texts which kind of puzzled me. When she got back she called me crying and said she was sorry for not talking to me and that she cheated on me. She said she had laid with a guy and watched a movie with him, but that she felt completely sorry and worthless for doing it. She says that she doesn't want to breakup but is OK if it takes me a while to forgive her.





    Is this some sort of mind game where she knows I'll forgive her? Should I forgive her? She sounded genuinely sorry but I've never dealt with cheating at anytime during our 11 month relthionship. How should I handle this? ThanxShould I forgive her...?
    Alright bro.. I live by a rule.. of course I know the saying once a cheater, always a cheater.. But I have a soft spot sometimes. So I always give *one* second chance.. if they *uck it up the second time, they *uck it up forever.Should I forgive her...?
    OK, so because this has never happened before, and considering she told you this time she would tell you other times, forgive her she didnt txt you back because she wanted to tell you in persoon but she allso couldnt continue on like noting happend.





    Bottom line: everyone makes mistakes just be glad this was a pretty minor one forgive and forget if it happens again though the 2nd time is not a mistake its a pattern





    Hope this helps
    you should have every reson to be agry and you should forgive her if you think she truly is sorry and she wont do it age so i think you should forgive her mate



    forgive and forget

  • I told him a lie to HELP HIM MAKE UP HIS MIND

    so i told my on/off bf that i will be out of town for a week





    I only told him this so that he could take this time apart to think about who he wanted to really be with ... me or his ex





    obviously i was not out of town and he saw me driving around and confrtonted me a few days later





    i lied with all good hearted intentions because if i hadnt said i wuz away, he wudnt leave me alone, and then he wudnt be able to make his decision regarding who he wanted to be with (me or his ex) - i love him to death buh i cant be dragged on any longer and i needed him to make up his mind





    and now that i told him the real reason why i had lied, hes telling me how he lost his trust in me and how doenst bullshit around ...





    even after it was all done so that HE COULD MAKE UP HIS MIND... he still doesnt understand - hes acting as if i cheated on him and ruined his life





    and he said he wants to meet up so we can talk about it but if hes alreaddy saying he lost all his trust in me (which i find so stupid, because it was the smallest innocent lies ever - especially done with HIS BEST INTEREST IN MIND) - then why even meet up??





    we're both in our 20's and i just didnt think he would react this way - i really thought he would be more understanding considering my feelings for him ....





    guys: why is he acting like this? is it really that big of a deal?? ppl cheat, ppl lie about ex's and past relationships etc etc ... i just said i wud be away so he cud get his head clear ... it was so innocent





    is he over reacting? im so confused on what to doI told him a lie to HELP HIM MAKE UP HIS MIND
    Tell him its me or the ex..not both!! I told him a lie to HELP HIM MAKE UP HIS MIND
    It you would lie about something ';insignificant,'; then why woudnl't you lie about something ';significant.';
    He's not over reacting - you lied to him! Even the most innocent lie can cause damage.
    Agreed, It was harmless but no one likes being lied to. Should have just went with the truth.
    sounds like u need to find someone more mature.. u need ot make up your mind.. he does not like you like you like him.. thats kind of evident.
    hey..we have the same avatar
    For the future, don't play games. If you want him to stay away from you for a few days to make up his mind cuz he's driving you nuts with indecision, tell him this (nicely though.)


    For now, apologize, explain that you realize now it was wrong and you screwed up and yeah, won't happen again. Distract him by taking him on a nice date or having sex or whatever.
    listen, he may very well be in the wrong for not being able to chose, but let me tell you this...........what you did was straight up pathetic, theres no other way to put it....i would chastize a 13 year old girl for doing this and tell her to act her age, but your in your twenties...yet you still act like a child? you didnt 'have' to do it this way, you could have behaved like and adult...if it was my choice it would be an easy one, because i am not attracted to immature women who lie to the man they claim to love
    I'll tell you what happend.....YOU PLAYD THE MAN! If you love him to death you dont play tricks on him. He's human not a DOG! I would have to agree with the cat, he has every rite to be mad. if I were you I would offer some R.H (Road Head)

    Does my ex want to get back together or is she playing with my emotions?

    ok, here is the deal...i cheated on my girlfriend of 3 years. Please no ';you get what you deserve'; or ';once a cheater always a cheater'; comment. I realize what i did was so wrong, so wrong, and i am deeply sorry for what i did. I have not slept in a over month bcause of my guilt and remorse. I cut out alot of fake friends who were backstabbers; who she never liked, i stopped smoking weed; a personal decision and reconnected with my family. I am really sorry for what i did. She knows im sorry...i sent so many poems, e-mail on how muched i loved her and how sorry i was. I sought out spirtual counsel as well as psycholgist to correct my problems oh honesty. I love her...and i think she loves me(she told me to say i loved her when she went out of town for work). We cried together and conversated like never before over our relationship for over 3 weeks. Her mother said never talk to me again. But she called me the day after she broke up with me. She wanted her space...and i gave it to her, but she called and txted me multiple times. I explained why i cheated in all details to be completly honest with her and to resolve her problems of ';not being sexy enough'; or ';her sex not being good enough'; , and how sorry i was for hurting her. I feel this way because i hurt her...not because i want her back. so after 2 weeks she told me we cant be together. Ok i said...its going to be hard, but i love you enought to let go. She told me, no more gifts, no more txt and no more calls because it kept me in her mind, and she couldnt heal. I said ok. She then txted me about my father tripple bypass surgery. 4 days later she drooped off a card for my father . So happen i was outside cutting his grass...she approached and left the card. We hadnt seen each other in a month. it was weird..but we were such close friends as well as lovers...we talked like nothing happen. She said she wanted to help me cut my pops grass. She raked and talked with my mother for 30 minutes. We taled to each other for 2 hours, and she told me how cute i looked with my new hair style. and brushed the grass off my shoulder...it felt like we were still together. She said she wanted to take a drive to our old spot over looking the city at night...the whole time we talked


    and joked like normal. Of course she dropped comments about what i did, etc. When we reached our spot, she played all these R%26amp;B songs about guys feeling sorry for loosing thier women( usher , marvin gaye, etc) oh my god it cut my heart so bad. We talked about all the good times, and the speacial moments we had. She wanted to hold my hand on the trip back, like ';old times';. She went out of way to say ';we broke up'; when people asked about why we there as well. And called me babe(she said its hard to call me anything else). We both said the situation was weird , like we were diffrent people, or like meeting for the first time but knowing each other so well. We hugged after she dropped me off( i have to pick up some stuff from her place at some point) and we said goodbye. I love her alot( yes i know i cheated but i was trully remorse full and i havent had sex since we broke up). Is she playing with my heart..or does she want to work it out at some point...so many mixed signals..im driving my self crazy thinking about her. What should do?Does my ex want to get back together or is she playing with my emotions?
    Hey bud, go to church and read scripture with your girlfriend. Do not sleep with her or live with her===just be available, kind and generous. If God meant it to be and please pray about this, then it will happen. Anyway, you really need to open your heart to God. The Catholic church is good and so are the pre marrital classes.Does my ex want to get back together or is she playing with my emotions?
    you haven't slept in over a month???? No wonder you sound like a rambling nut job. Maybe you should take this question over to Mental Health.
    Hi Derrick,





    One thing you need to remember is that people do get back together all the time,even when someone cheats. She's looking to feel trust again because she obviously still loves you.





    You should agree with her about the breakup - just be on her side. You've already apologized, but write a letter and just tell her you were wrong and didn't realize what you had at home. That's when you agree with the breakup and her reasons.





    Give her some space and try and take some time to get over some of your emotions so you can be calm and in control when you do talk to her again. All this emotion back and forth stuff should stop for awhile. Just tell her you both need some time without any contact to be able to think things through. At least a month is wise.





    Get out and see your friends and have some fun. Getting away from home and sitting and moping about things will do wonders for you. It will help you become more interesting and attractive also. Becoming self confident instead of needy or desperate will draw your ex towards you. When you do talk next, keep it light and fun and move SLOWLY.





    Best of luck
    mate all i can say is iv dealt with that and all i can say is u shouldn't of cheated on her in the first place





    hope it works out between yous two =]
    It seems more like she is unsure herself, than that she is playing with you. And that's not unusual, given the situation.





    Nevertheless, at some point you'll have to ask her to either resume the relationship as it was or to stop it. A mature person understands that, so, she shouldn't be offended... and if she is, then she isn't ready and probably won't be in a while (if ever)

    Advice for a teenage girl in a pickle (caution: LONG STORY...i'm sorry.)?

    Here's the situation.


    I'm about 17. I dated a guy my age for about a year and a half. He was the one that showed interest first, but he also cheated on me about a month into our relationship, by asking out another girl. I have made mistakes in the past dealing with cheating (which i deeply regret) and so i decided to just try to work things out with him, since people make mistakes. When I tried and he didn't put in any effort, I broke up with him. I ended up taking him back about two weeks later, because i missed him, and he appologized for what he did. I guess that was good enough for me. During the six months, I continued to have problems with his excessive flirting with other girls. I knew from the start of our relationship that he was a flirt, but I trusted that the flirting would be all in good fun and he'd remain faithful to me. While i was uncomfertable with a lot of his flirting (including putting his arm around their waist, massaging them, telling them ';inappropriate'; things) i tried to bear with it. When i finally confronted him about it after 6 months, I contemplated breaking up. But i didnt. For the next few months, our relationship improved greatly. All of the inappropriate flirting was gone, and we became closer than ever. However, I recently found out that he had been cheating on me with my best friend for the past few months and neither of them told me. That was the last straw, and I broke up with him.


    It's been really hard, and I know i still have feelings for him. But i don't want to take him back, because i told him i'm done giving him chances. However, I'm also unsure about what to do with my friend. Both of them were equally a part of the cheating (i know this for sure), and although she appologized after, it's hard to forgive her. I told her i don't hate her, i just hate what she did. i really want to just forgive her and continue to be friends like how we were before--and that's what i'm doing. But i don't know if this is the right thing to do. Should I continue to forgive my friends who do these things behind my back? I really want to be a nice person, but i don't want to be a pushover.


    I'm sorry this is so long, but does anyone have any input? (:Advice for a teenage girl in a pickle (caution: LONG STORY...i'm sorry.)?
    I'd cut strings with him entirely. Having sex with others while in a relationship is dangerous and very hurtful.





    When I had just moved out of my house to get a divorce (I am 38) now and this was about 5 years ago my best friend whom I have known since I was 6 dated my husband for three moths prior to us ever getting divorced. My now ex-husband told me. I think he did it to get a rise out of me. It failed. She and I talked she played off why it happened and we remained friends. I forgave her. We stayed friends for a few more years after than the she got a boyfriend and is one of those that cannot have girlfriends when she dating someone. I'll be honest it was hard to forget and as time went on and we talked less and less I was almost relieved. You can forgive your best friend but you can probably never forget it happened. Some things you simply cannot undo. I even helped her get over my ex dumping her....lol...Stupid eh? As humans we try to do the right thing...





    Personally I think you deserve better. I think you can forgive her...hear her out...and then if you truly don't think that things will ever be the same again I'd simply tell her....I forgive you but there is a huge sense of betrayal here. You lost them both in a sense. What she did I would never wrap my head around and if you can God bless because you are better than me. I honestly don't think you will be able to either. Speaking form my experience I would forgive her and simply tell her that you just cannot process all this and it is eating away at the back of head why you'd do this and maybe one day I might get over it but not today. You honestly don't have to tell her a word but I would simply because I am that way. A good friend will wait and a rotten one will last out. I think you need a spring cleaning. I'd remove them both from my life. Soon it will be summer and you can meet other people who aren't so toxic to your soul. He seems like an A-$$ and she is not better. You don't need people like that in your life. I know we all make mistakes but that is one that I think you will always carry with you. I don't think you'll lose much by deleting them from your life. There will be someone out there that treats you with respect. Neither of them had any for you. Plus this is something you never forget. I remembered each and every time I saw my former best friend....





    If it were me I would walk away from both of them and I know that is hard...but as you are walking off into the sunset you have to remember tomorrow is another day and you will meet others who are far more worthy of you kindness. If you can't get past why she did it and I never could you aren't doing the wrong think by letting go of them both. They did the wrong thing to you...You didn't do anything wrong. Her behavior and his is unacceptable and it was quite cruel You don't need that in your life.





    FURTHERMORE if you were a pushover you'd of forgotten the day it happened and said ';let's do lunch'; but you are simply a human with a conscious.....and I know that I think the right thing to do would be to remove them fro your life. You'll never trust her again nor him which leaves you with zero anyway but there are others who won't do that to you. Clean house.....That is my advice to you. Clean house as self preservation and move on....without them....and at least you have the summer to regroup. I'm sorry this happened to you. It sucked for me but I got to the point I had to do what was right for me and you shouldn't have to look at them, be reminded and still smile. You should write them off and find a best friend and a boyfriend with a heart and never look back.





    Can you talk to your mom about this or any other confidante? I'd talk to them if you could of not...Email me if you need an ear.....But I would say forgive and forget about most things but as I said....some things you cannot undo and those prevent you from moving forward......Head up, smile on your face and leave them......you did nothing wrong...but you don't need a constant reminder......(My reply was long too = because I remember how horribly gutted this made me feel)Advice for a teenage girl in a pickle (caution: LONG STORY...i'm sorry.)?
    leave him.you don't deserve him.give yourself a break!go out with some friends.you'll find a better person soon.he's not worth it.chin up girl, there's someone waiting for you, for you alone.
    both of them arent worth the pain once a cheater alwaya a cheqter
    There comes a time when you stand in judgment


    of yourself


    and the biggest lesson you can learn


    is do not have people in your life, who doesn't enhance it in some way





    that doesn't mean a friend with problems should be cut out, it means if they come to you for help, and you can guide them, you should





    neither of these people enhance your life in any way, and have given you grief and cause dilemmas to you


    how long will you allow people to walk over you?


    how long before you assert yourself and say ';i'm better than this';


    they clearly do not respect boundaries, and you have higher morals than they do





    you sound like a caring person and they have taken advantage of this,


    you have seen how much they respect you


    why hang around?


    you are better than this and worth more
    Oh my dear, you are truly a kind person, but I'm glad you have declared you don't want to be a pushover. Your boyfriend and best friend are not true friends at all --- true friends do not betray each other. they are selfish and only care about themselves.





    There are people out there who will care for you genuinely. Go find them. May take time ...but be patient.





    Please don't ';walk around'; with a sign that says ';step on me';. You deserve so much more!!!
    my advice is stay the hell away from the boy he is no good for you, once a cheat always a cheat and that just proved it





    as for your BEST friend id give her another chance because i think it was your ex hitting on your friend





    give her another chance but dotn trust her straight away
    If he flirts alot and you do not feel comfortable around him when he flirts, stay away! You deserve a better boy friend!





    And your best friend?! No way! She's totally betrayed your trust.


    But as it was your boyf who was flirting with your best friend and your friend might of been secretly attracted by him.


    You don't need friends like her!





    I've always been a pushover and it's not fair.


    You're obviously a kind person :D And weldone!
    Your letting people walk all over you!


    Problem: You're too nice.


    Solution: Don't take your ex back and just forget about him. He's a cheater, it's not like he only cheated on you once..he never stops. So get him out of your life. As for your friend, don't forgive her so easily. Let her feel the hurt she caused you. Let her run after you. Tell her how much she's hurt you and you're finding it hard to forgive her..
    First off, you are waaay to good for that guy. There are literally millions of guys dying for a chance to meet a nice girl like you and your wasting your time on someone repeatedly cheating on you? Just make sure you don't take him back. As for your friend, it will be hard to stay friends with them. But as long as she regrets what she's done and never does anything like that again there is no reason you can't be friends. As you said ';everyone makes mistake';. If she constantly backstabs you though, it might be best to distance yourself from her. I'm sorry you had such a terrible relationship, but your young and there'll be plenty more :)

    Is there such a thing as a perfect relationship?

    I don't know exactly what im trying to ask here but im wondering if in every relationship is there always something that has to go wrong. Cheating is what i mean specifically. If you hadn't read my previous questions im in sort of a situation where its obvious that im going to leave the bastard and things will be finally over on sat when he finds out that the girl he is meeting up with won't be there and instead he will recieve a note saying to never talk leave me (his fiance) alone and forget about the wedding. Im now wondering about the aftermath of it all. ok so i leave him and move on...say years go by i meet someone knew and bam it happens again but in a different way, i would just think to myself that damn i already put up with this dozens of times before in my past relationships are all men just truly like this? what if it becomes a matter of choice and there is a price that you pay in every relationship it just depends on how much you love the person you're with. Like if i had stayed with my x and things blew over and he did stop cheating would it have been worth it to stay in and find out? Am i just starting over and over again in different relationships for it all to lead up to something dealing with cheating whether it be during the dating process or years into marriage, is cheating just an inevitable part of a relationship? please share your thoughts.Is there such a thing as a perfect relationship?
    No relationship is perfect.


    No such thing as a soul mate.


    A relationship is between two imperfect people.Is there such a thing as a perfect relationship?
    If you consider a relationship that does not include cheating to be perfect, then the answer is yes.





    The reality is that there is no such thing as a perfect relationship. If you can communicate constructively with your spouse and you work together to obtain common goals while treating each other with trust and respect, you have a pretty good relationship.
    I don't think there is a perfect relationship. Everyone has their issues, what you should look for is a guy whose issues you can deal with. Second, once a cheater, always a cheater. If he is cheating on you, leave him.
    Yeah , its called being singel .





    Every relationship has its ups and downs none are perfect.
    Ha, I'm watching The Duggars, I think their relationship is pretty much perfect.
    no one is perfect and nothing is perfect.





    you don't cheat if you respect someone.





    good luck
    yess there is such thing as a perfect relashionship. %26lt;3


    %26lt;3 =]
    no there is not.


    after u leave this ';bastard'; just try not to rely on other guys.
    Sounds like your thinking your a cheater magnet. Perhaps it is the type of man you go for and you just don't realize it. Not all men are cheaters but there are a lot of them out there. I think it is the way they are programmed just like society is programmed to think what the perfect human body should look like. Is it an excuse, blankity blank blank NO. I think it is the absolute worse thing to do. In case you haven't noticed its my pet peeve. I mean for pete's sake, you claim to love this person and especially if you have comitted to them such as engagement or marriage and then you go and piss all over everything you have said. You disrespect yourself, and the one you cheated on. You make yourself a liar and ruin any credibility of your word for what? A piece of tail? PUH-lease. Just be honest, this isn't working and I want something else. I understand that bad decisions do get made usually under the influence of something like alcohol but that doesn't make it right or excuse it. I mean when it happens the best you can do is man up and tell the truth and take the punishment. At least you have some dignity that way. No cheating is not an inevitable part of a relationship. I have been married 20+ years and he doesn't cheat, of course he feels the same way I do about it. I think we had a to not cheat vow that meant more than our marriage vows. We still laugh about our 3rd date. I had pretty much had it with cheaters and I was tired of wasting my energy on someone new. I don't know if I was trying to run him off or what but I just put it out there. I don't like cheaters and if you are one or have ever been one tell me now. I told him a few other things too. He felt like I did about things and it has worked out wonderfully. So I think you have to find the right guy. Trust me they are out there, you just have to find them. good luck :-)
    I think that being selective when choosing friends is very important and be friends before dating is also pretty important, you have to know the guy in front of you from toes to head, and that麓s possible only through friendship. The problem is they met and start dating and into relationships skipping friendship, and that麓s the most important part. So no, cheating is not inevitable but depends on the person you麓re dealing with. That麓s why time and friendship are for, to get to know them well. That is also based on principles, but people with principles look like old fashioned for some others, and they are harder to find..if not in churches..
    All new relationships are stressful. Yes, romance - and what lot of people wrongfully define as love - disappears and the reality of everyday living dominates the relationship. That's when tenacity counts. Yes, you will have to battle it out. You will have to voice your opinion unashamedly and listen to your partner's opinion patiently. And, eventually, if you're lucky, you and your partner will make adjustments that will allow you to live together amicably.





    It ain't easy. Check out my source and the recommended book and learn how to fight successfully and make compromises.
    No relationship is perfect, as people are not perfect. However, there are certain things I am not willing to put up with from anyone and cheating is definately one of them. The way I see it is, if I can keep it in my pants, so can you. Unfortunately there aren't many men out there that seems to see it this way. For whatever reason, most think that having all types of ';strange'; is worth losing someone they care about. Perhaps they feel like they won't lose that person because afterall, ';she'd never leave me, she loves me too much.'; Well EFF ALOT OF THAT! I expect the same respect in a relationship that I bestow upon them, and if it's not given then I'd rather be alone than constantly hurt by someone else...no matter how much I love them. It may not be easy or fun, but I'd definately leave. Who wants to live a life of constant hurt? I personally do not. I think it takes being happy with yourself first before getting into a marriage. If you're unhappy by yourself, the only thing that will happen once you get married is you'll be unhappy with them and make them miserable as well. Not a good recipe for a happy married life I'd think.
    no. all men do not cheat. my hubby would never cheat on me. if a man has been in love in the past and had his heart broken due to cheating, he would not do that to you. as far as your fiance is concerned, he will do it again. he will just learn to hide it better next time. you leaving him would not be the wrong choice and you will find a much happier relationship down the road.
    you shouldn't stay with him because you are scared of the future, and yes, you will have to open up again to somebody, and yes, you are going to be vulnerable - isn't being in love vulnerable? but you are going to be smarter, and will recognize signs, and hopefully choose a different type than what you did this time. And if you are single - it's still better than being in a relationship where the other person causes you stress, disrespect, and you gotta put up with choices that you have no control over and you don't agree with. Don't worry, you'll be just fine!!!! Hey, try to just postpone, don't jump the gun!

    How do deal w/being cheated on & told he does not care about u as much as u care about him?And the lonelyness.

    I was with this guy for 5 years and now he tells me he just does not care about me as much as I do him. Then breaks up and comes back a couple days later. On and off for 5 years. Why does he keep coming back, if he does not want to be with me?How do deal w/being cheated on %26amp; told he does not care about u as much as u care about him?And the lonelyness.
    1. Because you let him


    2. Because everyone and anyone unable to make a commitment needs a Jerk in Reserve


    3. Because the last one he was cheating on you with has dumped him


    4. He doesn't care for you... he cares for a warm place to put his penis.





    Are these enough, or do you need more?How do deal w/being cheated on %26amp; told he does not care about u as much as u care about him?And the lonelyness.
    If you really want to be with him, sit him down and explain that you need a solid commitment from him.





    If not, move on.
    You are comfortable, familiar, and willing to take him back. Make yourself unavailable to him. He knows he can have you anytime he wants and without the commitment now. So, go out, try to have fun, or at least make it seem like you are having the time of your life. If he thinks he is losing you, it'll wake him up. In the mean time, hopefully he will hurt a little like you have been hurting.
    he keeps coming back because he knows you will let him back in. i don't mean to sound harsh but you need some backbone. if this guy doesn't care for you don't accept him back because you will only get hurt again when he leaves. let him know exactly how you feel without going into total rant mode. once you tell him that it is over you can begin to move on. once again i will make this clear he doesn't love or care much about you if he keeps up with this behavior. even if he swears he does he is lying to you. once you oust him for good you will need support to get over the loneliness. if you have been neglecting your friends for that relationship i suggest you get back intouch with them. and if you have strong bonds with family they can help with those lonely times too.


    another point is to rebuild your self esteem. you may be wondering what you have done that makes him not want you. a mind set like that can really kill self esteem points. you shouldn't worry about insecurities that he may have had about you. you have to find that wonderful person that you buried beneath all of his decietfullness 5 years ago. then once you are ready to head back into the dating world you won't have to worry about petty things and you can have fun with it without stressing out.





    all you need is to get him out of your life and pay special attention to your needs. then your self esteem and confidence level will rise.





    p.s...it hurts for a while but never for long!!!
    He is toying with you. What I need you to do is send him packing, drop this man. He means you nothing but mental anguish. He is playing with your mind and laughing at you. The next time he calls you, I will need you to hang up in his face. When he comes over to your home, I need you to not open the door at all. Do not listen to him, drop this scum bucket and move on to a real man.
    Ditch him!!! You don't need his attitude! If he keeps coming back just tell him off. Also get a makeover, start dating and looking for someone new and someone who can make a commitment!
    probably cause he doesn't have anyone else, or if your having sex that might be why. i would not see him ever again, as he is leading you on.he is cruel to tell you that after 5 yrs.
    tell him that your tired of this and he has to make a choice


    her or me and if he says her. then you need to go on with your life. u only live one time dont waste your time if he comes to u tell him that he has to make a choice first before he can see u again then hopefully he will see that your not playing games


    good luck to u and god bless.
    He is a loser and he keeps coming back because you are a sure ';piece of ***';. He can have sex with you when he gets horny, no strings attached.Thats why.
    He keeps coming back because YOU LET HIM!! Grow some respect for yourself, honey. I was in the same situation with an idiot like that, only I was the idiot who LET MYSELF be treated so bad. It may be hard at first, but you can do it. Wouldn't you RATHER BE SINGLE THAN TO WISH YOU WERE because hes treating you so bad? You CAN DO IT. Tell him not to let the door hit him in the @ss when he leaves, and that it only swings ONE WAY.
    he is playing the game. Your always there so when it doesn't work with some other woman he goes back to you. When he finds another your out again. You need to boot him permanently. The cheating should of been enough for you to give him his walking papers.
    hummmmmm..... because you allowed your self to be used and he knows good and well that you stupid enough to take his sorry butt back with out any commit and i am sure when he does come and stay thing happen so why even settle down when he can do what he wants and leaves how does the saying go why buy the cow......do a lock down no more let it go you can do better
    you seem to really like this guy, and maybe thats why he keeps coming back, because he knows he can get away with it, i think you need to put a full stop to letting him back, be confident and give him an ultimatum!!! good luck x
    This man is playing games with you, using you because he knows you will welcome him back. When he comes the next time, keep the door firmly shut. There will be someone worthy of your love, take time and they will come to you. Get rid of this rat now
    he keeps coming back because he knows how you feel about him and how pressed you are. pick your head up off the pillow, fix yourself up, have a ME day and leave this LOSER alone he means you no good. stop carrying your feelings on your sleeve and move on. he was honest and real to you when left. STOP allow him to walk all over you. you are missing out on your real shining armor man. stop wasting time, feelings, tears and thoughts on this guy. find a pt job, hangout with some friends, family, babysit. find some activities that will occupy your mind and thoughts. GodBless

    How should i deal with the knowledge that my mother is cheating?

    im 16 i've known about it for a while but am hesitant to get involved however it is becoming more apparent to my younger siblings and all the dirty texts are starting to bother me how should i deal with this?How should i deal with the knowledge that my mother is cheating?
    This is a difficult situation for a kid to be in. On one hand, yes, it's her business and no one should interfere and just let the cards fall as they may; but, it's going to hurt your siblings, and it's going to hurt your dad. I suggest talking to your mom, telling her you know, and allowing her to decide what to do - whether it's coming clean with your dad and leaving for this other guy, or putting her family before her and ending the affair.How should i deal with the knowledge that my mother is cheating?
    normally I would just stay out of it, but since the youngsters are noticing and she is making no attempt at not flaunting it, tell her what you know and tell her straight up that if she doesn't stop you will tell your father. Your mother is behaving unfit as a parent and I feel bad that you kids are exposed to her trashy behavior.
    If your mother pays the bills and buys your clothes, I think you should stay out of it.
    Well if your mother wants to cheat that is up to her. You cannot do anything about it.


    Good luck
    Speak to your mom about it.

  • GUYS!!! Why he acting like this? Am I doing something wrong?

    It seems as if, whenever I ask my bf questions he gt all angry and says that I'm ';interigating'; him. But I simply ask questions. He'll get made and frustrated.





    How do you ask a guy questions without getting all the ';anger'; back? I'not doing a very well job.





    Whenever I ask a question about something that deals with cheating, or why he's out all night, or seem to catch him a lie he get's all loud and starts yelling. Like he wants to pick a fight.





    Is there any way to question a guy without having an arguement? And why is he like this?GUYS!!! Why he acting like this? Am I doing something wrong?
    i think it shows insecurity when a guy gets mad just cause their girlfriend is asking them questions regarding cheating. He probably feels guilty about something. On the other hand, if you've been asking it like a hundred times then i can see how a guy can get annoyed. But he shouldn't get that mad. It shows how bad of a boyfriend he is. If he's annoyed, he should just tell you, in a calm tone.


    No one deserves to be treated like that just because they asked their boyfriend a few questions. who does he think he is? In a relationship, you should be able to talk about anything with your boyfriend. Tell him how you feel about him shouting at you. And you're not interrogating him. I think he may be saying that because he's hiding something. Just tell him you do not deserve to be treated that way and he better change soon.GUYS!!! Why he acting like this? Am I doing something wrong?
    i suggest that he is cheating and using the anger to deflect your questions --- no one should go on like that ---- you are doing nothing wrong and you are doing a good job --- he is the one at fault so please stop thinking you are and of course you should be able to ask questions and get a sensible answer without him getting angry --- if he wont talk then maybe you need to think about moving on ---- best wishes to you
    If he is getting mad at you for asking questions, it is one of two things:





    1. You are ALWAYS asking questions and being a nag. If he is doing nothing wrong, it is going to be irritating. Give him a break! How would YOU feel if you were doing nothing wrong and constantly were being accused of cheating and such?





    2. He is GUILTY. When a man (or woman) is guilty of cheating, they will often act angry. He is likely trying to switch the emphasis on his cheating back onto you, making YOU the bad guy. But you are not. HE is the one that is a cheat. What he is doing in this scenario is WRONG.





    Judging by your statements that he stays out all night, I think that #2 is the most likely truth, but I cannot say for sure. Fact is, there HAS to be a REASON you are asking him about cheating on you. Think about it. Is there? Either way, if he is getting angry, then it is part way HIS problem. Maybe he has an anger problem. He should get help learning how to act like a mature man. There is no reason to pick a fight when you ask him stuff. I'll tell you my honest opinion: I think you can do better. Maybe it is time to let this loser go and move on. All guys are not like this, and you should not have to be abused.





    Good luck!
    sorry to be a downer but he probably is feeling guilty about something most likely he is cheating or trying to cheat
    *****************BEST ANSWER ****************************


    The problem is not you.


    The problem is that you're asking the RIGHT questions and he feels defensive.


    Men often act this way when feeling cornered by women.


    Use your intuition because what you feel is right.


    If he can't admit to his whereabouts, etc.. then he doesn't respect you, doesn't respect the relationship, and doesn't care of the status of your relationship.


    If so, he'd be honest enough to resolve your curiosities.


    This is coming from a guy, so I know.





    Good luck!
    sounds like his defense is offense...
    He is acting that way because he is cheating on you. Leave.
    sounds like he is the one with the problem, not you.
    guys are just like that i am a guy give him some space
    try to ask him when he's not in a bad mood...





    sometimes a it really is irritating when you're too tired and someone asks you such questions..





    but if he's in a good mood and you ask him such question and he gets angry/irritated.. then theres something wrong with him... :)

    How to deal with the thought of him cheating?

    have you ever had the thought that your BF has cheated on you but he swears he hasn't and you believe him but the idea keeps chewing at you? his best friend even says he hasn't cuz and the only time he was ever gone was with him. so should i find another way to find out or should i let it go?How to deal with the thought of him cheating?
    I had this issue once. I found I couldn't let it go and I wasn't about to go sneaking around to find out if he did, so I broke things off with him. There was no way we were going to be able to build a healthy relationship when I couldn't even bring myself to trust him. I think it was just something about him and his personality that made it impossible for me to trust him because it's never happened with anyone else before or since. Bottom Line: Trust your instincts.How to deal with the thought of him cheating?
    i have no experience in this whatsoever but my opnion is to ask a few more people if the thought of him cheating is still bothering you but other than that let it go because youll become paranoid or somthing like that. But you also have to trust youre BF a little because not all guys cheat
    What exactly makes you think he cheated on you? You just assume he did because he went out of town?





    And I'm sorry, but his best friend is NOT gonna rat him out, honey.





    Why don't you ask your boyfriend instead of going around behind his back trying to get some incriminating evidence?
    Let it go girl, Trust is the key of a relationship if you don't trust him you are making the biggest mistake ever, so let it go he havn't cheat on you.
    he's not cheating....if he was he would go with the other girl and leave you
    hes not cheating let it slide hun :)
    don't be parinoid! no one likes that!

    For those who stay with their cheating spouses, how do you deal with the images running in your mind?

    How to forget it? Thx..For those who stay with their cheating spouses, how do you deal with the images running in your mind?
    EVERYONE MAKES MISTAKES!!! NOBODY IS PERFECT!!


    you either love him enough to get past it and move on or you could do better with someone else GOOD LUCK AND GOD BLESSFor those who stay with their cheating spouses, how do you deal with the images running in your mind?
    I stuck by my boyfriend although he cheated on me. I never asked for the details of the affair, so the only images I had are the ones I created on my own. I like to imagine that it wasn't great for him although I will never know the truth. But when I do think about the two of them together, I just try to think about something else. It's hard to do, but I try to focus on the positives about him and our relationship. It is true though, I will never forget what he did although I have chosen to forgive him.
    when it happened to me my father gave me a word of advice, that the marriage would never be the same, and i would never be able to get past it, so i filed for divorce, it was one of the hardest things i ever had to do, one of the most painful also.now four years later i realize that its not something u forgive or forget, it stays with u. but i am sure there have been couples who managed to go on, but they are probably the ones who got therapy, who were able to communicate. but things that involve the ego are rough because u know they chose this other person over u.
    Well, you know he does it to beef up his own deflated ego, so you aren't very important, none of his '; love interests'; are.





    But you an I know YOU are very important.


    Why be married to him when he broke all the vows? Goodness, woman, your ';marriage'; was over the first time he had an affair after your vows were spoken.





    you were just being merciful.





    Are you ready to move on? Are you going to sit around and think about his love life? or are you going to savor the thoughts of you having a new one of your own?


    Decisions, decisions......
    Problem is, you probably demanded details of the affair and that is what is haunting you. Those images will not stop, they will eventually slow down on running through your mind, but they will always be there. Dr, Phil McGraw said that details will only hurt a marriage when it is trying to get repaired.
    Some of those women that choose to stay. Do it for the financial reasons, others think they can't do better. Some actually think all men are cheaters. And some decide to do the same as their cheating husbands. They figure if he can cheat so can I.
    We don't forget it. I tried to ignore my ex-husband cheating and It simply destroyed me slowly day after day. I could not concentrate on anything, I was paranoid about everything and every words he said. I finally left.
    if it bothers you enough to ask it here, you need to leave cause youre never going to let it go and it will only fester for years until one finally leaves! maybe try to get to the root of why he cheated.
    I tried to stay with mine, but just couldn't. I felt as though he was disrespecting me by cheating and there was no love or trust left. Open your eyes - no one should have to live like this.
    there is no staying with a cheater, the sooner you get away the sooner you'll start to heal.
    I tried working things out with my spouse after he cheated. After four miserable months i realized its just no worth it. Move on hun!
    I didn't stay with my cheating spouse, but I can tell you this: You never forget. Even if you forgive, you don't forget.

    How you I convince my friend to stop ';burning'; herself?

    My friend is dealing with a cheating boyfriend who she can't give up and a mom who hates her so she is burning herself. I don't know how to talk to her and find a way to convince her to stop. Please write what I should say before it's too late. (i can't tell a guidence counclelor for many reasons)How you I convince my friend to stop ';burning'; herself?
    Make sure to let her know you will always be there for her. Tell her if she has a problem you'll help the best you can and have a lot of girls night outs! Expain to her that it's hurting you and tell her the bad things about it. also tell her she can do better than that guy and her mom shouldn't act that way. Be nice and always be there for her but also tell her she's wrong and to stop!How you I convince my friend to stop ';burning'; herself?
    you need to tell her to meet up with you privately and talk to her about it. that is really important. i was thinking about killing myself a while before and my friend and mom talked to me about it and i changed my mind. tell her how much you love her and how special she is. it will definitely help her. good luck XOXO

    I have a question dealing with relationships/cheating?

    Okay so me and my boyfriend Andy have been going out for about 10 months with the exception of some breaks a few months ago. Thing were kinda shaky for a little while but there finaly starting to get better; like i feel secure again and he's starting to tell me he loves me again. We've always had kind of a weird relationship though. It's very ';physical';.. like we are really physically attracted. We go to different schools but we only live like 15 minutes away. All of a sudden though my friend pressed me into talking to this old friend Jerry, who's friends with Andy and they go to the same school. We started talking and we made plans to hang out later today. The thing is Andy and Jared still talk and Andy told Jared about the plans and Andy's kind of pissed. Andy told me how Jared was like going into detail about how he was gonna get with me and what was gonna happen. I just assumed he was messing around because i thought he knew me and Andy were going out but then last night i was on the phone with Jared and we started talking about Andy and he asked if i still talked to him. I was like yeah duh? and he was like ';well are you still getting with him'; and i was like ';yeah'; and Jared was like really suprised and than he was like ';well are we still hanging out'; and i said yes and than he was like ';well as long as you guys arent like going out or anything ...right?'; and i was being so stupid and i told him me and andy weren't going out. I guess i really want to hang out with Jared but i just dont know what to do. I dont know if Andys worth it because i don't always feel secure but i really do love him. Also Andys away at the beach this weekend so he wont be around. I just don't know what to do , whether or not i should go to this kid Jared's or how to keep myself from cheating or something. I just need advice ! im going crazy and i've always thought that people who get themselves in situations like this are dumb, but i kind of understand. Jared's fun to talk to and he's different , but iv'e been with andy forever and i don't want to lose him. what do i do..





    oh and i probably sound like such a valley girl/idiot but im not normaly like this .. everythings just messed up so please try not to judge.. i mean you can .. but it wont help anything





    thanks so much !I have a question dealing with relationships/cheating?
    First of all, you just have to think about who you want to be with more. That's the bottom line, if you like Andy more, then be with him and don't hang out with Jared b/c it sounds like you more than likely will do something with him you regret. If, however, you have stronger feelings for Jared and only pity is holding you with Andy, then I would probably end it with Andy, first and foremost, and see how things work out with Jared.





    I'm getting the feeling you're not THAT attracted to Andy since you're having a hard time avoiding Jared, even with the knowledge that he wants to ';get with you'; and I think you probably want the same, at least a little bit.





    That's the best I can tell you, think long and hard about who you would be ultimately most happy with.





    Hope I helped somewhat, take care and good luck! I know you will be fine!I have a question dealing with relationships/cheating?
    Thing is if Andy is smart he'll dump you. Why would you agree to go out with his friend? It also just sounds as if you and Andy are infatuated with each other, no in love. So do him a favor and break up with him because clearly you aren't ready to be with one guy.

    Does football have a lot to learn from rugby...?

    In how to deal with cheats...look how badly the players, coaches and doctors have been punished because of that who ';Blood Gate'; thing...(not sure about the coverage outside the UK)


    Basically this coach Dean Richards has had his name tarnished forever...no one will want to go near him, yet cheaters in football get signed for 拢80m...it doesnt sit right with me...





    Imagine if Drogba went down with a blood capsule in his mouth...we would be screaming bloody murder!Does football have a lot to learn from rugby...?
    i think it shows how much better football is then rugby,





    people say look to rugby


    look how they treat the refs


    and yes they speak nice to the refs





    but they also punch, rake and gouge of the ball


    yet if any of that happened in football there is mass hysterical.





    bloodgate showed a level of cheating spread through the club


    eduardo didn't dive with a blood capsule given by his boss


    if anything rugby needs to learn from footballDoes football have a lot to learn from rugby...?
    yes i read this article down under and i must congratulate them for there tough stance





    I beleive that the doctor may have had there licence to practice medicine suspended or canceled as well





    Drogba, Ronaldo the list goes on and on but what does the FA do about it nothing at all





    The FA should take a tough stance or are they to scared
    Yes! the blood-gate scandal was caught! and not allowed to be a cheat for a long time, the referees in the premiership are not up to the challenge and there is much to learn from rugby.
