Have you/would you stay with someone if they cheated?

Expanding on this thought, what do you think the point of the emotion "love" is.

Do you think love is real?

If my husband had a "moment of weakness" or whatever you want to call it and screwed some girl once - probably even if this happened more than once during the course of our marriage, I probably wouldn't leave him. On the other hand, if I found out that he had an emotional connection with another woman and was spending time talking to her on a regular basis, meeting her for lunch, taking long drives together, etc., even if he wasn't having sex with her, I'd leave him.

I feel the same way, but a little different. Sex is just sex, but I don't want my husband running around cheating on me with the excuse that he was "only having some sex." Thats fucking silly.

But an EMOTIONAL connection to another woman would destroy me, and I would likely put my tail between my legs and scamper off into the sunset.

To me, sex isn't that big a deal and we're all human. It's emotional unfaithfulness that I wouldn't tolerate.

I would tolerate neither, but I would be more UNDERSTANDING of "just sex."

Also, I think that resentment in any relationship will eventually fucking DETROY it. Never leave something open-ended where you can find the will to resent your partner. It will kill your relationship.

Jam it back in, in the dark.

Wow. If you people really think that women cheat for SEXUAL FULFILLMENT, you're lying to yourselves.

Am I going to have to bring up the whole gay relationship vs. lesbian relationship thing?

Because yes - men need sex more than women do. It is the natural drive of man to impregnate as many women as possible.

How ya doing, buddy?
