But this guy is doing more than just "thinking" about cheating. He's actually contacting other women, and the way you phrase it "as if he will get with them". Doesn't that count as flirting with and propositioning other women?

The guy is my friend and I don't know the girl. I know that he is a good guy, takes care of her, supports her etc. I guess this is a vice that he has. I'm a girl and hang out with guys a lot and I see how they behave at the bar when their girls are working. To me its shameful, but I guess that's how guys are. They flirt with the girls, talk about how if their girl wasn't coming home that night they would sleep with these girls etc. My friend stays home and check out the net. I don't know, I wouldn't like it either way I guess.

I think leading on these unsuspecting women online is kinda cheeky. Stringing them along just to disappear in the cloud. Maybe the cheating behavior is collateral damage while he gets his thrill from breaking anonymous lonely hearts.

I really don't think that's how ALL guys are. It probably just seems that way when you're at the bar, since it draws that "quality" crowd ...

Yeah, but I know these guys outside the bar too. It's not ALL of them, but the majority. Unless it's the crowd that hang out with. However, I have come across guys behaving this way in all aspects of my life... I just feel that if you have a SO, even if you think about the aspect of being with someone else, at least don't speak about it publicly to your friends. No?

It's not something I would normally do, but then we DO come in all flavors.

Even the religious guy at my job says that if his wife is not available or God forbid gains 10lbs, he's gonna look elsewhere. He's devoted, has kids, supports his family etc, but if he doesn't get what he wants when he wants it, its fair game. How does that make sense?

Evidently his definition of "devoted" differs from mine.

Religion doesn't make you moral - it just offers a convenient hide-out when you want to misbehave.

Exactly!

My bf used to contact this girl he met on an online game. He said he only did it as a game but I still felt/feel cheated on. They would message eachother "I love you, I miss you" talk about sexual things, she sent him pictures of herself (not nude, although I found a message where she was trying to send one but someone walked in on her.) When I found out I absolutely flipped. I felt cheated on, and betrayed. If I feel it, then isn't it real to me?
