I seem to notice with the news,this forum and people around me that everyone is just cheating on each other? I mean there is no such thing as real love anymore? Or was there ever? Why do people do it so carelessly? So

what's the point of relationships and marriage ?

Because many people enjoy each other love each other very much. Not everyone goes out and cheats, but some do. Humans often show poor judgment and do bad things to each other.

This forum also shows the extremes of relationships, typically slanted toward the negative side. There are a lot more "my boyfriend/girlfriend has this issue" instead of "my boyfriend/girlfriend is great!"

The internet is a depressing place. If I spend too much time in certain places, I get extremely depressed and started becoming paranoid about cheating. Then I realize I'm being ridiculous.

I don't cheat. Husband doesn't cheat (yah yah can't be 100% sure).

Turn off your computer and your tv, they are apparently poisoning your mind

Not everyone cheats.

And many people are happily married.

Remember, "if it bleeds, it leads", so of course the media focuses on the worst when it comes to people.

Yes everyone in a relationship cheats.

Yes everyone in a relationship is faithful.

Yes all women do not like short guys.

Yes all women like tall guys.

Yes all men like tall girls.

Yes all men like short girls.

Yes you can be single and have a fwb without any side effects.

Yes you can be married and have a fwb without any side effects.

Any other generalizations I missed?

Well if its true that everyone in a relationship cheats, then for me, she must have been so awful and the sex must have been so horrible that I must have completely blacked it out of my mind because I do not recall ever cheating.

^^^ Noooo, not everyone cheats. Not even the majority cheat! Some people do still have good morals and values of commitment and respect for others! Of course the news points to the negitive, when you watch the news, they may spend 5 or 10 mintues on the good someone is doing the rest is crime and polotics....does that mean you can't go to those places b/c everyone is running around killing, raping, stealing, etc?? Absolutely not!!!!

Oh, and one one thing that caught my attention, Love is a feeling, feeling change, develop or deminish at times..marriage isn't about "loving" someone, it's about committing to them; to respect, care for and be there 100% for the reemainder of your life!!!!

Best Wishes to you
