| Cheating - are both involved parties to blame? Posted: 9/29/2005 9:09:31 PM | So, I'm curious of people's opinions on this... and couldn't find a thread about it...
If someone says they are in an relationship that they are staying in for whatever reason, but wants sex on the side, is the other person as wrong as the one who is cheating?
Example:
If a guy has a girlfriend he's living with, and sleeps with another girl just for sex... is the girl sleeping with him as much in the wrong as the guy who's cheating?
What's your opinion?
a) The guy is scum/the girl is technically doing nothing wrong.
b) They are both scum.
c) Other opinion.
Just for the record, I am not sleeping with an involved man... so no bashing please. I always said they were both in the wrong, but now I don't know. So I am curious as to what other people think. | |

Unfortunately, a lot of people play the card.. they are in an unhappy relationship... feel sorry for me.. blah blah blah! | |

Posted: 9/29/2005 9:51:01 PM | | jimi77 id agree with you but the courts dont care anymore about who is cheating who its all the same to them. i just went through a divorce where my spouse cheated on me, she said it was my fault and the reason it was "my fault" was cause i came here to Iraq lol. so no i dont think its ALWAYS both parties fault. but sometimes ya id agree. | |

| Cheating - are both involved parties to blame? Posted: 9/29/2005 10:02:17 PM | | If she knew that he has living with someone and did it, then yes. She would be in the wrong to. If she slept with him and didn't know it, she is still in the wrong, but didn't know it, so should be forgaven. If she kept doing it, after finding out, then she would be in the wrong, and just as bad. | |

If someone who is in a relationship "cheats", there must be a reason
So depending on the reason, all three people involved in the triangle may be wrong They may also be 'right'
For example, A couple grow apart but stay living together [this is actually fairly common], neither one has any interest sexually with the other The other one 'cheats' with a knowing third party
Who is actually wrong here??
You could say the couple are wrong for not trying to rebuild their relationship If one of the couple wanted to try to rebuild but the other didnt, maybe only the one who refused is wrong You could say just the 'cheating' part of the couple was wrong You could say the third party was wrong for getting involved You could say the couple was right or wrong for staying together dependant on the reasons You could say the third party was right for relieving the sexual needs of the 'cheater'
Every situation like this is different There are no hard and fast rules Each one requires thought before it can be answered correctly
So many people think that "This is right" or This is wrong" but they forget about that lovely thing called human nature It is extremely rare to see anything pure black, or pure white in nature But there are many shades of grey .. . PS No, I have not cheated whilst in a steady relationship I personally believe that most of the time 'cheating' is wrong .. . | |

I always thought that both parties were to blame too... but I've been having this discussion with people that say the "other woman" and "other man" weren't doing anything wrong. | |

Posted: 9/30/2005 7:50:43 AM | Depends on how honest each of the parties have been with one another....If all cards have been layed on the table than I guess both are in the wrong, but then again, if the partner of the guy or girl who is sleeping around is aware of it and okay with it, than I guess no one is in the wrong.
