I know! Sounds like a plot in a bad Harlequin romance novel doesn't it?

And yet, some guys want so badly to justify their disdain for women that they latch on to it like it's the gospel truth

Think men are the unfaithful sex? A study shows WOMEN are the biggest cheats - they're just better at lying about it | Mail Online

Well, I suppose the woman who wrote the article could be lying.

I guess not! Next time I go to the grocery store I'll try to knock over some shelves or fall through the glass display cooler in the deli and act all awkward and cute. Of course, since I'm just some guy and not a quirky 20-something girl in a movie, it'll probably just wind up being painful and expensive.

Any statistics about infidelity, illegitimate children, etc. - should be taken with a grain of salt. Any time you look for statistics on these things on the web - you'll come up with a bunch of different articles with a bunch of different statistics. I could look and find an article about how men cheat more than women. Actually - I did - and there were a bunch of articles. Point being - there is no way to get an accurate estimate. And who really cares anyway. And more to the point - why do YOU care since you don't ever want to have a relationship with a woman anyway.

All that I care about is that I haven't cheated and neither has my husband. Everyone else can do whatever they would like.

Hey - he's the one that keeps saying it every thread! I just wonder why someone who says that have no interest in relationships spends so much time researching as much negative things about women as he can - and then starts threads about them… I just don't get it!

How did you read all this crap into Ulysses61's post? She didn't say that, she said simply an emotional affair, she also said she wouldn't be happy about it. I think you are trying to make a mountain out of a mole hill. She said she wouldn't call it cheating, and it's not cheating.

Then he was finally rescued and came back stateside, and guess who was there at the air force base waiting for him... his wife. And they're still together today. Ya just don't see that kind of commitment and dedication to another person any more.
What makes you say that?
What proof or stats do you have to back up your opinion.
You're saying that no one would stick with a spouse?
Perhaps you're talking about your own relationships, but that's a pretty broad mop you're using to paint everyone.
