I may give the slight edge to rape, as it's a form of assault; unlike cheating.

Rape is generally viewed as violating someone's body, while cheating is viewed as violating someone's trust; but they can actually be both.

A person can be raped by a close friend or a family member, someone (s) he trusts; and a person can get nasty STDs from her/his partner cheating with multiple people.

Either one can cause deep emotional trauma for someone, creating trust issues in that person.

If you were to be cheated on by another person would you want the ability to be able to sue them?

The court would only be involved in suing the cheating individual if evidence is proven to show any acts of disloyalty from a partner.

Here are some reasons you should be able to sue someone in court for cheating:

1. STDs - This is the biggest reason. People double dipping their nacho into other people's queso and possibly giving you herpes.
Staying with one person reduces the risk and lowers chances of STIs since you know your partners cleaning habits.
STDs can be costly money and health wise.

2. Morality - The ability to sue would make someone think twice about cheating. The possible costs of fines and fees.
Currently since there are no negatives, a cheater will continue to cheat. They have no morality nor do they care about what is thought of them.
They are selfish people.

3. Healthier relationships - I think people who are seasonal cheaters would start avoiding relationship all together. So they would be out of the loop all together

4. Money - Suing people for being a sl00t would get you free money. I think it should range from 1-10k

What do you think?

You have had a one night stand while in a relationship. Would you confess it? Is it necessary and appropriate to confess that you cheated on your partner?

Assume that no strings attached to your one night stands, no mention of it in near future and no STDs.
