Trying to keep an open mind, but I think maybe if it was an open relationship maybe they would see who they really want to be with by actually being with someone else, but other than that cheating is never really been a good thing
I believe that there are rare cases where a couple can save their marriage after an affair if they're willing to put in the work.
However I don't believe for even one second that an affair can save the marriage. The saving part can happen with just therapy without needing an affair to make them realise they need couples counseling.
Yes and no. Depends on many factors. If you're a high value man and you cheat on a woman it will make her step her game up and want to fuck your brains out usually in my experience anyways.
If your boyfriend is a total loser cuck pos he will probably like it too or so I hear.
Other than those two instances fuck no.
I think there are a small number of situations where this could be true. It's very specific but I do think for the rare few something like this could save a relationship
I question the logic behind that but whatever…
I disagree, but only because I see that kind of act is unforgivable.
There might be times for others, but not if I am one of the partners in the couple. She cheats, I'm done.
🤣bruh.. if my relationship is so bad, i need to date someone else to fix it.
It's time to end that relationship 🤣
Yes exactly. When someone can't meet your EVERY need you should just end it and find someone else who says then can until they can't of course then you can end that one too. lol
Nope not what that means. But the only way to save a marriage is to give each other permission to cheat.
That marriage is garbage, and that is desperate asf to agree to that.
Many simply ignore the affair because they aren't interested in them anymore sexually but everything else is great.
It's not a relationship anymore. That is roommates.
My parents been together 22yrs never stepped out and enjoy their marriage without having to cheat.
Again if ya need someone else to pick up pieces your partner should be doing.
Da fuck you wit them?🤷🏾♀️
Your parents never stepped out? How would you know? You think they telling you if they has some secret affair or fling with someone at work or whatever? It's ignorant at best to think it can't happen and if it does people should just split up. That's not real life or the real world.
It not real life to think its normal to cheat on each other. It's not realistic to think that this is in anyway fixing the marriage or relationship. It's not it is still broken. And instead of admitting it is broken or trying to fix the problem with eachother, you go well fuck it. Let's just have someone else give it to us. That isn't fixing anything. That is introducing someone else to a already broken relationship. That always goes well
That is weird and disturbing.
No i know my parents would never do that and they are always home, and when they go out it is together.
They would be literally no time that would have happened.
Nobody is claiming it's normal. Nobody is saying it fixes the marriage. Nobody is suggesting cheating solves anything. The experience of an affair itself sometimes sheds light on what one might not be doing or is missing in the relationship. They can then go back and reflect on what they were doing wrong. In your world and the words you use you are absolutely right. Who wouldn't be when stated the way you do. You can open your mind or simply say it's weird and disturbing. Just giving you the thought process of relationships that are not like your mother's and fathers. And congrats they have never gone through anything.
I am never going to accept my partner stepping out on me.
If they feel the need to do that. It's over. That is a relationship that is too broken. I have no problem working on fixing problems, but that is not an option.
And i am fine with compromise but this. Nope.
They could end up having sex with them. Potentially impregnate them, catch a std, that now i will have if we do have sex again. That person could become obessed with them and cause drama in my life that i don't want or need.
No thank you. If we can't fix things without cheating, then our relationship has far too much wrong with it.
I mean that all sounds wonderful. I wish you the best with that. Appreciate the comments.
They are full of shit. A betrayal espicially by a woman means the marriage is over it just maybe hasn't ended yet.
maybe that is true. i don't know. but if cheating or having an affair is what's necessary to resque the relaitonship, then this relationship doesn't have value to me. cause to me, loyalty is one of the carrying pillars of a good relationship.
Maybe when two polyamorics are dating each other.
I don't think cheating helps but maybe an open marriage may help if both agree, maybe on a temp basis just to get that change of scenery out their system.
It's not secret even when you've been in a marriage for awhile that your eyes start to wonder even if you still remain faithful, this goes for wife aswell as husband
Into consider the person who got cheated on is probably financially contributing to that therapy session.
Those "therapists" can suck my cock!!!
Startling behavior coming from you man.
@coachTanthony How so? Were you expecting a different answer?
I expected strong disapproval but not with such a pedestrian vulgarity. Well done!
@OlderAndWiser Lmao. Sorry about that! 😆
No apology needed!
There is no time when having an affair will rescue a marriage. In all cases it will destroy all trust in a relationship.
Baloney!
That "therapist" ain't gonna be therapist for long.
I was with the same woman for 14 years and for three of those years, she had a boyfriend. I'm think it helped spice up our relationship
I will keep this short. Any relationship that can be saved by cheating is not worth saving.
Not sire I can see uow an affair can help a marriage.
Probably not if nits behind the partners back but if its an agreed situation I can see it.
