Search Results: how to catch a cheater

(Death to all G@G bots!)

If you are lucky, you have never had a partner cheat on you. Or maybe you had a partner cheat but you never learned about it, so there was never the opportunity to respond. But if you have caught a partner cheating. . . did you give them a second chance? How did that work out for you? Looking back, do you regret giving them a second chance?

Obviously metaphors change over time. "Netflix & chill" has replaced "Hanky panky" and that's fine. Languages evolve (except the damn French & their purity council but that's for another question) but does the changing of metaphors represent that we are less widely read, historically knowledgeable or biblically literate? Or is it just natural evolution?

Do you make any assumptions about people if they don't know what a "Catch 22" or "manna from heaven" mean?

Other than the Bible & Shakespeare NO ONE has given us more words & phrases than the Lost Generation / Roaring 20s. They are simply delightful!

I am talking about on average here I understand there is exceptions to the rule. But men and women are tricky as well as easy to catch in their own ways.

Men are much more impulsive cheaters on average. Not that women can’t have someone approach them at the right place right time but men are more likely to sleep with a woman he doesn’t even know…. So you may never know that it even happened. However they aren’t very planned out. They don’t really cover their tracks well and if they start talking to someone or something it becomes easier to spot.

Women on the second hand are usually much more planned out. They know who they want to cheat with as well as have a plan to cover their tracks before they act on it. What’s the catch? Women typically are sleeping with someone she or the both of you already know. After so long it becomes more obvious something is going on despite the gaslighting attempts.

The chances are higher that someone will rat her out, that you’ll notice she’s too close to someone, roomers, etc. Especially using their friends to cover it up sometimes one will start feeling bad and confess it. Or even seduce him and tell him.

So both are easy as well as hard to spot. Men are more messy. They don’t plan it out well and don’t cover their tracks well. As where with women they do BUT…. At the same time are doing it with someone close. At some point it becomes obvious if someone doesn’t say something
