What does that mean if it doesn't even bother you that someone is cheating on you , even if you are not in an open relationship?

If a person is cheating it is dirty. Especially if you are married are in a serious relationship. There must be something off balance that's making them do that. Sometimes it's more for attention but it's not right. If you don't get a grip on it now it's only going to get worse. Some people deny it but they know what they're doing

For me to accept a woman cheating, or even be in an open relationship, I would have to not give a shit about her and possibly even secretly hope she leaves.

[Chris7094]

The other scenario would be if a guy was a cuck (which I am not). He gets off on being with a cheater, like a kinky thrill from it.

[Chris7094]

Or it's possible that the person getting cheated on has other priorities in life, and truly doesn't care what their partner does sexually. That kinda goes back to not really giving a shit, and having no jealousy or fear about losing their partner.
Maybe they don't really NEED their partner, and feel they could do better anyway?

[sofia444]

Hmmm.. may be. Or may be their partners have let them down so often that they don't wanna stress themselves anymore.

[Chris7094]

I hear you, but it's gotta be like torture to live with a cheating spouse. How can you lay beside them at night and not feel worthless and betrayed? How can you kiss your partner when you know they don't truly love you back? It's like being abused.

[sofia444]

Hmmm. May be that person doesn't sleep with their spouse? Is just with them for sake of kids.

[Chris7094]

That's difficult. In my situation we split up, lived separately, and ended up coparenting. Which meant I did most of the parenting while my ex-wife disappeared.

[sofia444]

That works too. But it's easy in your country. Nice to know that you took care of children

[Chris7094]

I always did take care of my son even when I was still married so it just came natural. I had to work part-time and even take him to work with me in the evenings. My ex ran away from being married and being a mother. She was going through a mid-life crisis and wanted to be a slut.

[sofia444]

Hope she realises her mistake some day. Keep taking care of your son. He. Needs you.

[Chris7094]

I will.
I'm sorry if you're the one living with the cheater for the sake of the kids. That must really wear on a person.

[sofia444]

Oh that's not me. That's someone close to me. All she sees is her son. That's only reason she is breathing.

[Chris7094]

Yeah I think I know what you mean.
Ultimately that living situation may prove to be even more toxic for her son than if they separated, but maybe that's not as common where you are or something?

[sofia444]

Yes. It's hard for women to live as a divorced women. Divorced is considered bad in the society where I live. But i don't think this woman care any longer what her husband does. Women here are desperate to stay married.

[Chris7094]

I get it.
It's just way easier financially to raise their child together. It's sad that he couldn't stay faithful and give his wife all of his love and attention. He probably ruined the close bond and trust he had with his wife because he was selfish.

[bean2k21]

It could be a sign of high intelligence. The very act of getting upset over a cheating partner dates back to the cavemen, who would take action against the unfaithful in order to protect their future DNA.

It means it's time to give your head a shake and get your shit together

[WhitneySnow]

Not sure. That’s really weird.

It means you have zero self esteem.
