No, it's not. Cheating is never okay. If you are cheating or he is cheating then something is wrong with the relationship. Either fix it, or get out of it.

If you're that unhappy after they cheated on you then it's probably best to just break it off. If you feel you can live with cheating on them, something is wrong. Just because they hurt you doesn't mean you have to hurt them, either forgive or move on is what I think. So therefore, no it's not okay, you're going down a level when you do that.

you can't fight fire with fire. you'll just get a bigger fire. try talking to whomever u cheated on u (boyfriend, husband, girlfriend, wife) and ask them why they did it. if you feel it's acceptable and it's happened before try thinking about breaking up/divorce.

No, it is never okay to cheat. You should never do it to pay the other person back for cheating on you. Nothing will get solved that way.

Sure. go for it.

Personal belief is your own belief.. its up to you on what you feeling

I've never been cheated on and naturally I'd advise you to break it off, but I know what it's like if you can't break it off..

but here is my advice, don't cheat on them and give them a justification to cheat on you!

good luck!!

No. Two wrongs don't make a right, besides if you're still with them, that means you have chosen to forgive them. Forgiving means you give up your right to hurt them for hurting you.

if someone cheats on you, your best bet is to break up with them, cheating on them is creating more drama & conflict.

No lol i dont think you should do that.No one should cheat on anyone, i dont understand why they don't just break up with someone and go out with the other person. If i were you, i wouldn't even go back out with him because it is just playing games and no one likes that it's just getting your heart-broken. That is not a healthy relationship, i know he probably broke your heart in the first place, but that means you should of got out of that relationship right when you found out, You can't trust anyone when they do those things to you, =)

It's always possible to break up, whether you take a butt kicking and get a restraining order or have to split custody of kids. The only thing keeping you is probably low self esteem and feeling like you deserve to be treated badly. When it gets to be bad enough- you can break up. The real reason you probably want to cheat is to put this relationship into the ground the only way you know how- self destructively cheating and creating a stay or go situation.

Yes ! If You must stay I really think you should. An eye for a eye! If you don't and you stay anyway. You WILL be a bitter Betty. That most likely might get cheated on again and then eventually abandon by him. If you cheat on him he will know you still mean Business as if you were to divorce. You can tell him so he knows DONT YOU DARE MESS WITH ME AGAIN ! Or you can keep it a secret for your own sanity.NOT TO BE MISTAKEN WITH REVENGE. It is a SANITY thing. You can forgive but CANT FORGET. So d0 it!

no it's never good to stoop to there level. if you've been cheated on just make them feel guilty. Remind them that they don't deserve your tears and never follow in there footsteps. cheating is like telling someone you care then going out and telling someone else that. Of course it'd feel great to get revenge but how would you feel after that? Don't cheat; it will just make you feel worse.


Wontrumyth
It lowers you to their level and would sabotage your chances of finding someone really loyal.


RedRabbit
Nope. It just makes you pathetic scum like them. If you cheat, then you don't deserve to be in a relationship or have any simpathy.

You can break up with them. Saying you can't is a buch of bull ****.

No, but it's okay to divorce them.

Two wrongs don't make a right!
One has to be the stronger and set the example, if for no other reason but for the children.
If you both start going out on each other, it will only bring more hurt and the children are in the middle of all this hurt.
Respect is the Key here!


xthatgirllx21
noooo, just break up and move on


♥my♥3♥punkin♥pies♥
I know that's your first inclination...revenge, how sweet it is...but you would probably only feel badly afterward, if you truly love the person. I am usually a firm believer in an eye for an eye but not in certain situations, like this. I think it would only cause more hurt, more emotional stress, it would stoop that person below their normal moral level, and with kids involved there is no need for purposeful drama, you know what I'm saying? If this happened to you (which I think it did) then the best thing you can do is talk to someone (him, a counselor, a parent/friend) about your feelings...betrayal, hurt, self-esteem, trust, etc...and put it out on the table. Take a stand and make sure it is known that you will NOT sit by and let this type of behavior continue (unless you are willing to) and that things need to happen to regain your trust, confidence, etc.

Good luck, it's not easy...I know...

2 wrongs don't make a right.

No it is not. If you cannot forgive and forget you should move on. What good is that doing for you really. Deep in your soul you would be just like him - a cheater.

If your spouse jumped off a bridge would you jump off a bridge too. What's wrong is wrong and nothing makes it right. You have to learn to live by some sound moral standards so when you look in the mirror everyday you like the person you see looking back at you. Does that answer your question???


Jimbo
No, two wrongs don't make a right. Be the better person. What do you mean if you can't break up ?


MM
only if you think you're no better ,,,


Touch me Lord
There is no such thing as can't. If you are thinking about cheat don't lower yourself like that low life. Be the bigger and better person and hold up your head.

You can't fix your marriage by doing more damage to it. Hang in there. Find a counselor who believes in saving marriages and go.

Depends.. two wrongs don't make a right..

On a deeper level, it's been my experience that infidelity is rarely the cause of a problem; more often it's the most blatant symptom of a problem in the relationship

When you seek comfort from someone other than your partner - why?
Why not instead work on repairing that?

Something wise I saw on a Jerry Springer-type show:

A lady forced to deal with her husband's multiple infidelities cuts him off permanently by declaring: The cheating I could deal with. We could fix that. You're a liar, and you'll always be a liar. That's not something I'm willing to deal with. Goodbye.

No, revenge is never the answer. Just dump the guy, he doesn't deserve you. Don't try to involve other people.
