I have experienced women cheating on me. In all kind of ways. Emotional cheating. Outright sex. Sex texting. Dating others behind my back. Innapropriate communication with their ex's,,,,
My current on again off again girlfriend continues to have inappropriate communication with her ex-husband. While she's not having sex with him to me it's just as bad. She has had 2 1/2 years to put an end to this. She makes all kinds of promises but eventually goes back to the behavior and I'm crushed. I don't think at this point this woman will change.
My question is whether or not people change when they're accustomed to this kind of behavior? Especially women. Does anybody have a success story where their woman was able to change and stop with all inappropriate stuff.
Please no comments on my other posts. I am over itb
I'm a guy who has either/both physically or emotionally cheated on most long term partners I was with.
If you're young (say, under 25) and cheat, it's not morally right, but it happens. I was 18 and was with a woman who was 35 at the time, and we were together for nearly three years. I loved her, but ended up with some women closer to my age and some even older than her.
Do I regret that today? Not really, because it wasn't something that was going to be permanent, and I was young and needed to explore.
Last year, I cheated on my then girlfriend. I regret doing it now. The cheating didn't break up the relationship, she didn't find out, and I doubt it would have worked over the long term period.
If you're asking me if I could stop, the answer is just maybe. It would really need to be true love to keep my wandering eye on the leash.
Personal opinion just from my observations with friends/family/aquaintances: No; they don't change but this goes for men as well as women. It's kind of like an abusive partner; no matter how much they promise, they just don't stop.
Thats just my opinion/experience though. Maybe other posters will have a more optomistic view?
People (not just women, but people overall) repeat behavior that gets them things they want.
As long as cheating continues to produce a desired outcome for an individual, there's no incentive not to continue it.
If their cheating has an end result that is seriously detrimental to their life, and if that outweighs any of the good they got out of it, less likely to continue the behavior pattern.
Habitual cheaters might not ever change their unscrupulous ways, but when it comes to your own relationship, you need to set boundaries and adhere to them, so your partner knows crystal clear what is acceptable behavior, and what is not.
You're dealing with people, and people are the hardest things to understand. Forget Einstein, forget super-computers, forget the most complicated mathematical formula ever; they are count for nothing compared to trying to understand the human psyche!
Just like habitural criminals, they will keep on cheating because they get some form of <sadistic> pleasure from it; the buzz, the risk, the "trying something new" because they tire of predictablity.
Men and women who cheat, do so for a number of reasons, not least if they're young and extremely good looking. They will be very self-confident and can play the game quite easily. Especially with the advent of social media and YouTube, where people can upload themselves to a potential global audience flaunting their vanity.
You're still with a woman who is continually cheating on you. Why put yourself through that any more? End it and move on and end the misery. But perhaps next time round you can use your head rather than your heart when it comes to relationships.
Some men and women can't stop, but many do. For me, it eventually wasn't worth the pain and I found someone with whom I could have pleasure without pain.
