The language of this post sounds so clinical--it's as if relationships and sex are no different from some business deal, rather than personal, emotional things that don't always lend themselves to these hard "ethical" principles (other than that everyone be consenting adults, of course). I frankly find it strange. But to each his/her own.
It doesn't strike me as a hard ethical principal. Pretty straight forward really. Cheaters are douche bags.
No it doesn't. "Consent" means that all parties are participating in the act of their own free will. Nothing more than that. At least that's what I meant. It's beyond ridiculous to say that sex isn't consensual if one party doesn't know the other is sleeping with someone else. If things were different, they wouldn't be the same.
I know what you meant, excusing cheating is literally the only thing you talk about on this board.

Not wanting to hurt someone, and not wanting to hurt how you feel about yourself is hardly clinical.

Definitely "G". My husband and I have dated twice before and it just wasn't the right time either time. Now we have been married for 7 years and still have a very regular sex life. He really does keep me satisfied and I like to believe that I keep him happy as well. I don't even think about it ever.
I NEVER cheated in my marriage, nor would I ever cheat in an agreed upon exclusive relationship. If I wanted to cheat, then the relationship means nothing to me. A relationship is nothing without trust and respect. Even planting a seed of distrust could destroy a relationship. And yes, in the field I am in I have had many men show signs of interest -- when that happens I'm careful not to be alone with them, not to engage in personal conversations, etc. And cheating is an absolute deal breaker for me. I think cheaters are lacking in integrity and I wouldn't be interested in a past cheater for a LTR.
