Cheating is wrong, but why does it feel so right?

[Trutention]

Every time I am with him, my worries are gone and I am happy. It is like We are so in love and we are unstoppable.

[Summeroflove]

Lol…. Because you’re too cowardly to break off the relationship. Things feel really good for a time but it won’t end well. If you think the guy you’re cheating with will ever be loyal long term you’re gonna get burned.


You’re a narcissistic individual who seems to only care about yourself and how you feel. Not how someone else feels. That’s why you probably never had true companionship.


I’m sure other relationships have started the same way. Amazing at first and went down hoo did t if you WHORE

[OlderAndWiser]

Perhaps it feels right because you have no sense of responsibility to others.

[Vesuvius87]

The reason for that might be because you think you're running away from your problems and feel happy. The reality is once that intimate moment with the other person is done, you return home and are back in your relationship. You haven't solved anything. All you need is added more problems and are in the process of destroying someone emotionally.

[MrOracle]

Exactly. She's being incredibly selfish, and she doesn't realize that if she was in a relationship with this new guy, and had to deal with the day-to-day realities with him, she'd likely feel the same way about him as she does with her husband, for the same reason. The reason she things the new guy is so great is because she ONLY ever has "fun times" with him and nothing else, because it's not a real relationship.

Running away from your problems doesn't solve anything - it usually just makes them worse in the long run.

[Twalli]

@MrOracle exactly why relationships are always good at the beginning. Only good times, then you start experiencing just average times and bad times.

[MrOracle]

That's right. But most people (women especially, but plenty of men too) either don't understand this or are in denial about that truth.

It's easy to have good feelings about someone when you are only around them during good times, but it's always going to be different (and harder) when you are with them full time and you have to face the challenges of life together.

Cheating on your partner as an escape is incredibly selfish and displays low morals, and it ultimately will do more harm.

Why do you feel the need to lie and hurt the person you are with? Why is it so difficult to respect them enough to end it with them before going to see this new amazing person you seem so in love with?

[AviatorTom]

Good sex releases endorphins in the body, and that is a chemical that the brain likes, makes you feel good.

[Anonymous]

Think again. Being with that person feels right to you or cheating feels right?

Cheating feels right to you means being with your current partner going for another one feels right to you. If this is the case then you are selfish that's why it feels right to you. Or you feel low about your current partner that he/she deserves getting disrespected like this that's why it feels right to you.

[TommyMountainFigure]

Maybe you just enjoy tasting the forbidden fruit of adultery.

Actually, I wonder if when you get caught, and he says "sod that, I don't want any part of it," How you'll feel about him then?

[SeriouslyNotSerious]

Why don't you break up with your partner and just be with this person? You're making everything complicated just for the thrill of it. 🥴

[Trutention]

I don’t know if my best brother’s feel the same yet. I will have to confirm his feeling for me before leaving my husband.

[Trutention]

My best friend’s brother

[SeriouslyNotSerious]

Sex ≠ Love. You were lucky to find a man who will be serious enough to marry you and you chose to cheat. Good luck finding love with that new guy.

[Jennz6]

@SeriouslyNotSerious exactly 💯

[Peridot25]

@Trutention He has no feelings for you.

[Dinklex3]

Probably because you’re selfish and have no consideration or empathy for your partner. Poor guy.

[ApplePie409]

You need to learn that there are two sides to every story.

[Dinklex3]

@ApplePie409 Or OP can learn to actually share more of her story if she wants input based on the information she posted.

[bowenw]

It could be that you have found your real soul mate in him.

[Jennz6]

Lots of cheating guys have come to me for sex

[rebeliouse]

and what did you do @jennz6

[Jennz6]

@rebeliouse I let them feel good

[rebeliouse]

how many guys have cheated with you?

[Jennz6]

@rebeliouse they don’t tell me that they are married

[LaurenM1997]

“Cheating feels so right” I feel sorry for your current partner shame on you for cheating on him 🤦‍♀️

[jahaims]

Because you use it as a coping mechanism to escape reality. You have trauma and aren't introspective so you are able to lie to yourself.

[shoeboxcerealcard]

That's exactly what she's doing.

[Mrtcn01]

it is always wrong you just get used it... thats it

[KittygosMeoWW]

Because you have no morals, self esteem, and you don’t care about others

[DrPepper12]

Novelty. Infatuation. Illicit. Forbidden. Furtive. Independence. It's all fun until it's not...

[DarkLegacy]

That is because you are a terrible person, your boyfriend could do much better then you.

[DarkLegacy]

Just seen that you are married, that makes it even worse

[MasterKS]

Its personal opinion, if you feel good enjoy it.

[LazerBean]

Because wrong things feel right to trashy people

[Anonymous]

Possibly time to see a therapist….

[Peridot25]

It’s funny you think he’s in love with you 😂

[Twalli]

So break up and date the new guy

[RedInnocent69]

Sounds like you've found the guy. Who’s cheating?

[rebeliouse]

with who the guy u cheat with or cheat on
