By (user no longer on site) OP     over a year ago

As a single guy I've been foolish enough to be involved in two affairs...

Both women had been married for 5 months but were soon arranging secret liaisons.

Both stated they loved their husbands, so if that's the case why would they cheat!?!

Can you love someone and still have your cake?

I don't believe so. If you loved someone, why would you lie to them like that?

I love my wife, so yes I would say you can have plenty of cake and make yourself sick eating it.

Surely if you are looking elsewhere without your spouses permission then that relationship is in trouble? People do the whole marriage thing to easily these days

I don't think so. If I marry, it'll be monogamous. I don't want to share the person I love.

After five months? No. .

Why would they cheat? Because they can and it makes them feel wanted /attractive/ desirable/ powerful/ sexy.....delete as appropriate.

Not necessarily, my wife used to play outside with me, until one day we had a bunch of morons spoil it for everyone! Now she has gone off the idea, and also lost her sex drive.

some people don't associate love with sex so don't feel because they shag about that means they love their partner any less

I think you can had an affair and still love your partner depending on your definition of love my definition of love wouldn't allow this but not everybody defines love the same as me

If you love someone you don't cheat..end of. It's my own opinion that the relationship/marriage is already dead once someone goes playing about elsewhere, they should be honest and end relationship, but like i said that's just my opinion. Families are ripped apart by those that cheat.

Sure. Monogamy is an imposed relationship structure. There are many people who are able to love multiple significant others.

We are both married to each other (Duh) but... We are on a swingers site.

Why oh why would we ever cheat on each other, when we both have this sort of free pass as long as we are honest with each other and are safe? Would never make sense! C x

We are married to each other and have a deep, abiding love and respect for each other that has lasted for many years. Sharing sex with other people now and again doesn't in any way threaten or compromise that.

I don't think the implication is that these ladies love more than one person I read it as can you love someone but still deceive them by having sex, behind their back. But that has been discussed on here many times and a consensus has never been reached

But I believe marriage is hard and if you do truly love each other you will find ways to keep your marriage alive.....adding a little bit of naughtiness to our marraige has added so much to our relationship. I understand its not for everyone but I do wonder if all those couples that split due to a partner cheating or 1 losing their mojo or them just missing that bit of excitement then if they had sat down and been honest with each other maybe they could of looked into other options that strengthened the marraige rather than destroying it xx

Real question is do you believe Monogamy is natural in our species?...

interesting question, Females are maternal and nuturing, while males take on that role somewhat, i'm not sure if thats natural or a cultivated expectation induced into society.

Jealousy arrives when ego and competition is introduced ... which are man-made concepts. If there was no jealousy and no need for a better or worse partner.. i honestly dont believe we'd be monogamous.

Don't think about it then .

There is a great deal more to a relationship than sex though and swinging is still a minority activity as far as I know. Many, many couples have great sex lives without ever bringing other people into it.

We have many centuries of social conditioning to make us believe that monogamy is the only way. For some people it is and for some it isn't. Problems start when you get one from each group in a relationship.

Yes a right Bobby dazzler, married to a man whose ex wife had cheated on him, declaring she loves him but prepared to put him through the same pain five months in.....a truly amazing woman. I think the lucky escape is more apt.

Haha, I won't. It does say a great deal about the strength of a relationship when you're able to swing successfully for years, though. Different strokes for different folks and all that.

Because people are unable to be absolutely honest with each other for fear of what might happen if their loved one knew what they were really like so never discover that they are just the same

Im married and i love my huaband more than anything. But yes i cheat.

For 10 of of the last 10 1/2 years i was completely anti cheating. Deapite the extreme lack of sex in my marriage at the worst times sometimes twice a year.

I met someone earlier this year and at the time i wasnt completley happy. Id been talking to the hubby a lot about 'the bedroom situation'. Long story short after one evening with this guy who i didnt end up sleeping with i came home and confessed all.

My hubbys reaction... if you wanted to you should of all i want os for you to be happy and you havent been.

In the end we agreed an open relationship wasnt exactly for us but we would sleep with other ppl if it happened as a natural thing. As long as we were safe and didnt have 'relationships'. Or do it on the doorstep so to speak.

I still feel guilty but we have been happier than ever at home.

So yes i think you can love them and cheat. But one day it may come back to bite me on the ass and thats the risk. Personally though i couldnt spend the next ten years 'watching the days go by' though either. Because in the end our relationship would suffer either way...

If you love someone, you wouldn't do anything to hurt them. If sleeping with other people would cause them to be hurt, then you don't truely love them, IMO.

As for the monogamy vs polygamy question, you can't compare us as a species to most others as we aren't animals to the same degree. Each to their own as long as everyone involved is happy X

Also depends on how much you love them. Do you believe you love them enough to let them go if there unhappy. I do and so does he. On some level he does know, but would rather leave it alone.

One day i hope he will do this with me.

I personally can't see how you can love someone if you are cheating. and for what reason they are cheating.. not enough sex, low sex drive, fallen out of love, she doesn't want it any more, or just plain fucking greedy! God knows what excuses people make for their actions. I still don't see how you can truly still love someone when you are meeting others for sex, attention, to feel loved etc , on here and in the real world.

Also if you are meeting someone on a regular basis you can't tell me that you are not getting some sort of emotional feelings/attachment to them.

And when do these people who cheat actually spend anytime with "these husbands and wives they say they love" cause they spend a fair bit of time on here!

I always thought this and we were just us fof 18 years and he was my first!

But I believe marriage is hard and if you do truly love each other you will find ways to keep your marriage alive.....adding a little bit of naughtiness to our marraige has added so much to our relationship. I understand its not for everyone but I do wonder if all those couples that split due to a partner cheating or 1 losing their mojo or them just missing that bit of excitement then if they had sat down and been honest with each other maybe they could of looked into other options that strengthened the marraige rather than destroying it xx

I did suggest she spoke to her husband and proposed an open relationship, but as his ex wife cheated on him she wouldn't!

Part of me thinks I had a lucky escape, but she was a friend as well as pretty amazing

Yes a right Bobby dazzler, married to a man whose ex wife had cheated on him, declaring she loves him but prepared to put him through the same pain five months in.....a truly amazing woman. I think the lucky escape is more apt."

In my opinion, no.

Lying to your partner shows a lack of respect.

To me, the both go hand-in-hand and I couldn't claim to love someone I didn't respect.

This is personal to every situation and i dont think its fair to generalise.

Yes sometimes ppl arent in love, yes sometimes they are being greedy. And yes sometimes ppl should spend more time with their partners.

However not everyone fits that mould.

My hubby works full time, writes and edits magazines and runs events as a hobby. Its makes him happy. Me nagging him to spend that time with me instead of doing what he loved didnt work.

However im not exactly a traditonal cheat as i have his permission to sleep with others and he has mine we just dont want to discuss it over dinner.

I think it would've definitely saved previous relationships if we were to open things up, but I'm just not okay with it. The thought breaks my heart.

Don't think about it then .

There is a great deal more to a relationship than sex though and swinging is still a minority activity as far as I know. Many, many couples have great sex lives without ever bringing other people into it.

Haha, I won't. It does say a great deal about the strength of a relationship when you're able to swing successfully for years, though. Different strokes for different folks and all that. "

"Im married and i love my huaband more than anything. But yes i cheat.

For 10 of of the last 10 1/2 years i was completely anti cheating. Deapite the extreme lack of sex in my marriage at the worst times sometimes twice a year.

I met someone earlier this year and at the time i wasnt completley happy. Id been talking to the hubby a lot about 'the bedroom situation'. Long story short after one evening with this guy who i didnt end up sleeping with i came home and confessed all.

My hubbys reaction... if you wanted to you should of all i want os for you to be happy and you havent been.

In the end we agreed an open relationship wasnt exactly for us but we would sleep with other ppl if it happened as a natural thing. As long as we were safe and didnt have 'relationships'. Or do it on the doorstep so to speak.

I still feel guilty but we have been happier than ever at home.

So yes i think you can love them and cheat. But one day it may come back to bite me on the ass and thats the risk. Personally though i couldnt spend the next ten years 'watching the days go by' though either. Because in the end our relationship would suffer either way..."

That's not cheating though as you have spoken to and come to an agreement with your Hubby.

So essentially, you have permission...

If both parties had an agreement and their arrangement worked for them then outside people shouldn't judge - but if one half is going behind the others back and the other half is unaware then it is a betrayal of trust, unfair and disrespectful - possible could still be love there but not absolutely sure about that - would have to experience that to know it m x

Why?"

Because it's not openness and honesty.

If you can't talk about who you're sleeping with then it suggests not everyone in the relationship is completely happy with that arrangement. I wouldn't date someone in that situation personally - I don't like 'don't ask, don't tell' arrangements.

We all discuss what we're up to. My partners are friends with each other (and have been known to socialise together without me because they get on well). We'd never avoid telling each other about meets, shags, playdates or new relationships. We talk about it freely whenever we want. We support each other in the finding of other partners.

It wasn't directed at anyone, it was to "one" rather than you specifically. And you weren't part of it, you had an affair with one party, you were not part of their relationship.

Yes. Love is a deeply felt, many faceted emotion. Sex is a pleasant physical activity which, if it does not lead to procreation, makes one feel well and is very good for you.

I would have thought though monotonous, sorry monagamous, sex would have lasted longer than 5 months.

I looked into this some years ago, and the origin of the word Love, Is , Absence of I, that means that you totally give yourself up. I feel it is no longer true to that definition, and is also narrowed down to individuals as oppose to loving full stop.

You can have all three in a relationship though. Personally , I've never cheated whilst in a relationship, but I do realise there are lots of reasons why it happens.

I don't understand seeking an affair 5 months after getting married - that's no time at all. Years later- i can see that the dynamics may change. 5 months in - you should be all over each other . Or did they marry after 10 years together or longer ?

"I guess her version was loves the security he brought but missed the affection and attention she craved! Security won

You can have all three in a relationship though. Personally , I've never cheated whilst in a relationship, but I do realise there are lots of reasons why it happens.

I don't understand seeking an affair 5 months after getting married - that's no time at all. Years later- i can see that the dynamics may change. 5 months in - you should be all over each other . Or did they marry after 10 years together or longer ?

Were together 5yr before marrying"

I think that can make a difference . Like Miss I said - sometimes, not always, people think getting married will change things. But none of us really know as we aren't in someone else's head.

And you've had all the excitement and attention of a wedding to organise and the day itself. Honeymoon etc, then it's back to normal life. Maybe that's why. For some it's the constant added thrill I guess.

Putting the 'cum' in Eboracum

Is marriage still considered a desirable goal for relationships then? I know I am unlikely to remain faithful to someone so wouldn't even consider it, plus the costs involved, and there are no financial benefits any more.

If I ever fall in love I wouldn't consider a hugely stressful event the culmination of expressing that love.

Could it be a feeling of insecurity that makes some people marry?

I am married, almost 15 years.

I have been cheating for the last year.

I love my husband, he is my best friend, my family, he knows I will never leave him or the children. We have a happy family home but its a sexless marriage and I have needs.

Life is short and I'm not prepared to never have sex.

We have talked about this, I have suggested an open marriage, I have told him I will take a lover if I never get sex (it's currently about twice a year), I have suggested going to the doctors, sex therapy, having a threesome, sex clubs... All sorts but he is not interested and obviously it was not a decision I took lightly.

To me, sex is sex, even when it turns out to be a regular thing, where obviously the connection grows and possibly feelings, which generally makes the sex better, my love will always be my husbands.

And before the abuse comes, yes of course I realise that if he finds out all our worlds will be torn apart and I will break the heart of the person I claim to love.

Lots of people would look at swingers and say how could anyone claim to love their partner but let them/ watch them get fucked by other people but the couples I have meet clearly all love each other.

Absence of I or Ego is selflessness not love.

And whilst I agree that love involves thinking of others and not the self it does not follow that selflessness = love.

OK let's look at it a different way it's not the cock.

So let's say your in a relationship where you get rejected sexual everytime bar once or twice a year. Actually those two times you might not of even initiated.

You love that person and all you want is there love in return.

Rejection makes you feel, ugly, unwanted, not good enough. But they tell you everytime it's not that and yes in the end you know it's not.

But it doesn't stop you feeling like poop. You still love that person but everytime they reject you it hurts. When it's not sexual everything's happy and fine.

So what do you do? It's easy to say the answer to that Is black and white it's not.

Cause remember the rejected tor might be hurt rejecting too....

Those people that cheat know the risk of the hurt they might cause. But they are just trying to cope somtimes (not always). Because if they don't replace that rejection with some sort of acceptance the need for sex nags and nags every day until you fine yourself hiding your face because you can't look at your husband without tears coming out....

I'm not saying this is every situation at all. But sometimes it's understandable how it came to that...

Amen to that! Try14 years of constant sexual rejection when you make very effort to look hot and sexy because since having children he can only see you as a sweet mummy and not someone to get down and dirty with you, even though he worships you in every other way and couldn't live without you he loves you that much.

I defy anyone to not then need to get sex elsewhere!

I think we are all adults on here so all know I that nothing in life is ever black and white and each ones of us will do things that others we see as wrong!

I've had affairs with 2 married men lasting several years. Both of them started when I was also married and neither were just sex.

I got hurt and had my heart broken repeatedly. Some may say this is karma for cheating in the first place. I didn't love my husband but I do believe the men loved their wives. I'm very good at being the other woman sadly. I made it easy for them. One is now on wife no 2. He could have had me at the end of his first marriage but chose someone else. and the other admits he will never leave his wife for me. No matter what tales they spin about things at home fact is they made a vow and are sticking to it. Love,fear, family, finance. Whatever the reasons. They stay. When you become the other one no matter how hard it is this is the reality you have to accept.

But that is what the origin of that word is, the original thing identified and named love, the thing we call love now is something totally different, for example if two people start a relationship and put the other before themselves , neither has to think of me, but if only one does it and the other sits back and laps it up, then it becomes a problem, as you pointed out, subservience, and so ceases to be love.

I have to confess that I had an affair when I was married.

I'm not proud of the fact, but I did leave my husband & he left his girlfriend & we were then in a proper relationship for 14 years.

We split last year but are still friends.

I get on fine with my ex-husband too, he even sent me a congratulations text when Norwich were promoted.

A key aspect is that we have never used our son as a weapon between us.

So much bollocks. So much speculation. Why? Why do any of you care what someone else does in their relationship? You are not in it, it doesn't affect you. There is never going to be a one size fits all definition of love or of marriage or of what a relationship should or shouldn't be. What you think are absolutes to you may not be to someone else.

So what's the point throwing platitudes or personal experiences around when they will not apply to the next person on the thread because, guess what, everyone is different.

To be fair though, you do often try to justify your cheating and ask others to not judge. I think it's just as valid for others to try and understand the motivations. It's just part of human curiosity.

So what's the point throwing platitudes or personal experiences around when they will not apply to the next person on the thread because, guess what, everyone is different.

because some people want to...

And it's open to comments being a public forum...

If you don't agree don't post simples

I'm not saying people can't post I'm just wondering why this is a question any of you are trying to answer at all.

Because as the OP I was curious and people ask all sorts of random shite on here!

Great, hope your curiosity was sated. But you'll still never know the answer, because you're not either of those two women or their husbands."

No shit!?!

"We have found out most singles are cheating not our problem we always meet as a couple can tell the married guys always have a shower after before they go

Not all married men shower before they leave ...or tell you not to wear perfume or don't let you scratch them or can only meet on said day said time...

My experience too. There's been no noticeable difference between married and single men (who've all had a shower before they go, why would they not that's a bit minging).

Why is it? When I was with my ex, if we had sex at night, neither of us then got up to have a shower

Yeah but then presumably you had a shower when you got up, before you say went to work, or out shopping? "

Only if it was a Sunday

To be fair though, you do often try to justify your cheating and ask others to not judge. I think it's just as valid for others to try and understand the motivations. It's just part of human curiosity. "

Actually, Anna has never tried to justify anything because as she rightly says, she doesn't have to justify it to anyone on here.

I just disagree with others who judge. They're not the same thing."

Are you suggesting if you were not in the situation you are in now that you wouldn't wonder and ask questions and have an opinion on people that cheat?

Yeh you do, you often say it's complicated and not as straight forward as people think (comes across as excusing it). I think expecting no judgement when you're doing something that a lot disagree with is a waste of energy.

I have never read Anna justify her cheating, I don't believe she has to but I also don't think we have to turn every thread about cheating around to her situation.

others have shared and I have found it interesting

Yeh she has though, she's often posted asking people to not judge as her situation is more complex than "just" cheating. This comes across as justifying it which, obviously, most won't agree with. Having said that, the posts she made previously on cheating were probably from before you joined this site.

That isn't justification or excusing it. It's written on my profile as a statement of fact. I have never justified what I do.

I wasn't trying to turn the thread round to my situation either. I am just genuinely bemused why people think they can ever understand someone else's relationship.
