Can you cheat on a person you are truly in love with?

If you love someone but there is not a commitment then of course you can have sex with someone else. It may not be great sex but it might make you feel better about your desirability or make you feel like you are getting your needs met.

This is to ask "Can you be truely in love with someone you have no respect for?"
If anyone asnwers yes then the words "truely" and "love" lose their meanings for me.

I can't cheat when in a relationship-- it's as much about self respect as respect for others. It'd feel dishonoring myself if I dishonored the person I choose to be in intimate relation with.

To the above Poster:
If it is an open relationship /without commitment, then it is not cheating to have sex without someone else- assuming you'd have nothing to hide from each other.

Sometimes, we have such situation in life, which we can't control. If it happened, I would do so, that my love man has never known about it, has never had any doubts.
Sometimes, it is better to not know truth.

But you can be in love and in a committed relationship with someone who is not 100% your ideal too. So therein lies the rub.

Just because you've seen and/or become acquainted with women / men all your life that were what YOU wanted didn't always mean they wanted you. Many feel they still have that one type that they just need to experience, even if only sexually. Many would seize upon an opportunity if it presented itself regardless of their emotional attachment to another.

I'm just playing devils advocate here. To me - it's still cheating.

I have to put the *blinders* on when I'm in a commitment with someone and I can only hope she does the same. The old *foresaking all others* that's in those wedding vows applies.

Hmmm I think people can love someone but feel so insecure or hurt that instead of trying to mend their hurt with the person they love they look for reasurance elsewhere to regain confidence. There are people like this there are on the other flip ide those who are totally uninterested in anyone but the person they love and nothing can help them but that person, however this can also become more of an obsession than a healthy love. People I think cheat for two or three reasons their own insecurities in several ways , fear, and to try to gain self confidence and reassurance that they are attractive. There are several types of love there is being in love with someone an truly loving somone for who they are.

I'm not a cheater and am not able to cheat in a relationship because I love with everything I am this also means I can get hurt quite badly though and take a while to get over a relationship. A typical cancerian with a hard exterior and mush for an interior

you know what some of you people on this site think way too much. Look at it in mechanical terms. Some times it is just a pressure release. No feelings just getting off. What is the difference if you let a stranger suck your cack or you jerk off thinking about another women? Yeah yeah thinking and acting I know, but one leads to the other anyway.
