I mean, how many can say that they haven't done this ever throughout their life?
Okay, well, that's not the type of cheating that everyone is talking about right now..
People (or some of them people at least, mostly seem to be female) are talking about a certain girl that cheat on a certain vampire with a certain person that makes the snow white... (wait, but, snow is always already white.. ah, never mind)
That cheating episode would certainly not end well if that guy being cheated on is actually a real vampire, in which case the girl would be found in an alley having her blood totally sucked out of her body.. Her face would be totally pale and all.. (but, then again, some people actually say that her face is already pale... ah, whatever)
Now, many seemed to be enraged that someone would actually do such a heinous crime...
Which made me to think.... Why is cheating wrong?
Now, by this question, I'm not suggesting that it should be considered right, nor otherwise...
I'm just curious as to why it is considered as such?
I mean, yeah I would know why people belonging to a certain religion would actually considered it to be so, but from what I observed, most people are showing their resentment or opinion that such act is despicable, are saying so not on the basis on any religious teaching or principles..
If that is the case, how does such conclusion been made?
Is there any possibility of, say, cheaters movement rises up to demand for their right to cheat?
Or is there different types of cheating, and some type of cheating is definitely wrong, while other type are not so wrong?
No cheating is alright. In most cases the reason can be summed up in one word:
Betrayal.
In any other case there is something called honor. If you are in a (supposedly) committed relationship, then you are bound by honor to at the very least break up with that person before you start something with someone else. I do not understand why some folks find this concept hard. Your word is the ONLY thing in this life you have that no one else can ever take from you. Why would you destroy it?
I think cheating isn't so much as having more than one partner as it is having more than one partner without their knowing. It's not only just a religious thing, but also personal preference. If you are open about it, and all the involved partners are okay with it, it isn't cheating. But if you keep your partners a secret from each other and make them believe they are the "only one", it changes things.
This made me kind of sad. Kristen and Robert are my one and only favorite Hollywood couple. I was actually pissed that she did that, when normally idgaf about celebrities.
When in a romantic relationship, you should be giving your love to ONE person. that spouse or special someone deserves a faithful partner. if you are willing to cheat on another because they are not fulfilling all your "special needs", then do you really love them? like 'mtngirlsouth' said: "betrayal". when you enter ANY relationship, you are promising the other person that you want to be with them and them alone. when you begin to find another person while in a relationship, you are betraying them. I really don't understand how people could cheat. I understand the concept, but why would you not just break up with the person? divorce them? talk to them? get a counselor? Do these people who cheat not know that it wont end well? My family is full of cheaters and lairs. I've only seen one relationship continue after cheating has happened. and even then, its not like things are easy.
1: cheating us putting your emotional or physical needs ahead of another. 2: it is lying about your promises. 3: cheating is betraying your partner. 4: cheating is being to lazy to just break up with the other. 5: cheating is choosing to hurt your "special someone".
I could probably go on about this, but its late... I really do not like cheating. It confuses me how someone could be so careless about their actions. It angers me to know that people are so unfaithful now days. why don't people think before they act as often as they probably should?
"before you do any action that could possibly upset anyone, stop and think for 5 seconds about the pro's and con's. What do you gain? what do you lose? then, after you have thought about it, realize this; if you had to think about it at all, you probably shouldn't do it anyways".
Relationships are based off of love. you do not love someone enough if you are even contemplating cheating.
@mtngirlsouth - so it is basically the code of honor?
@MillySonka - so... it is all about being upfront, being honest... is it?
@jordon@revelife - ""before you do any action that could possibly upset anyone, stop and think for 5 seconds about the pro's and con's. What do you gain? what do you lose? then, after you have thought about it, realize this; if you had to think about it at all, you probably shouldn't do it anyways". "
that's a good concept... just that when in "the moment", or when someone is controlled by emotion, i doubt the conscious mind is functioning properly to run that concept.. that's my opinion anyways..
@mtngirlsouth - oh yeah, that leads to the following question: why is betrayal bad?
i know most people see it as bad, especially when we can imagine how it feels to be betrayed... so is that the reason that we see it as necessarily bad?
I think the above commenters said everything I was going to say haha. So, my answer is theirs :D
Depends on the relationship - is it open or closed.
Maybe it wasn't really cheating. I say it was an open book test!
@maniacsicko - Well, *I* think the reason we all humans everywhere have a sense of right and wrong is because we were made in the image of God, and He put that in us. But you had said you knew what "religious" people would say. (Personally, though, when it comes down to it, I think creation is something you just can't get away from.)
I don't know why, in some cases of cheaters, they seem to get away with it. Like J LO who is going out with a younger man, but is seemed to be accepted by the media and portray her as a diva etc. But not others. Oh well, I don't know.
But your post was superb.
I can't rec. at your site, so here's my rec. Hmm....cheating. I reckon if you cheat you're only cheating yourself.
My Bible reading suggests that God did not have a problem with men having more than one wife and others called concubines. What God did not seem to like is someone having sex with another's spouse. (hence--cheating)
I know this is not necessarily a religious post, but it was not excluded with your introduction.
Some countries and cultures allow more than one wife.
It is interesting that I have only heard of one situation, and that jungle natives that allowed women to have more than one husband. It seems to be slanted in favor of men. I heard on the news that 5 wives killed their husband in an unusual way.
I think cheating is like one gal said here--a betrayal of trust between a husband and wife. I realize not everyone gets married to have sex, but my wife to be would have none of that---I had to marry her to have sex. She made it clear that if I even cheated once our marriage would be over.
If he's a vampire...then isn't he like thousands of years old? This can't be the first time he's been cheated on then.
I have cheated death over and over and will continue to do so for the rest of my life. Other than that I like to play fair.
lmao on them all i mean it sucks but funny pics
I agree with a lot of others on this. If you hide your true intentions with all involved leading them to think they are the only one then it is cheating and it's wrong because those individuals should have the option in knowing what you are exposing them to and how you really feel about them. They may see you having more than one partner as unacceptable.
"some type of cheating is definitely wrong, while other type are not so wrong" are you wondering . I wonder too !
Cheating is cheating.
Cheating is art of creativity. Creative minds more prone to cheating because cheating is a fun and adventurous for them.
