When it comes to getting cheated on in a relationship (and no kids), why many act like it was the end of the world or get to the point they think they'll never find anyone else?

Perhaps if it was something major such as a formed family and they walk away from the husband or wife, then it might be more understandable but if it's just dating and with no kids in the picture then don't see why that's even worth getting depressed about.

Just recently, I was listening to some girl crying because her bf of 8 months cheated. Honestly it seemed somewhat funny to me. Big deal. It's just a stranger in the end. Now if it were family members deceiving you then it's betrayal since it's your blood.

I've been reading more stories about others getting so worked on about their bf or gf cheating that think I almost lost my balance from laughing too hard. Now if it was one of my female friend telling me this, I would pretend to have a serious composure and comfort her but laugh once she's not there.

I am not one for the dramatics, but point blank .. if you're cheated on, you feel betrayed. If you commit to be exclusive and then you find out your partner wasn't willing to keep their end of the commitment, it hurts. You trusted them and they chose to take a dump on your trust. That stings a little. Life does go on, though, and that is where the drama ends in my world. There is someone better out there.

You feel betrayed, lied to, and you feel you have wasted your valueable time, You feel self conscious, you are mad, roller coaster of emotions. Crying is just a way of coping, but most people get over it and find better mate in the future.

I've never been cheated on (at least not that I've known of) Just recently, the guy I dated for 2 years went on a date with a new woman just to please his mother. HIs words, "I am not even attracted to her, I went because of my mother." I broke up with him last night, I felt bad of course, but guess what, I thank him for showing me his character before it is too late. and His behavior saves me years of misery.

He ended up being the one who cried lol

Maybe but I'm getting used to it. Not so long ago, someone told me ''You would good as a CEO''. I guess that must be great afterall.

Ok back to topic: I think they're overreacting.

Obviously these people genuinely cared for the people that betrayed them.
