I have never been unfaithful to my husband, but I was unfaithful to my girlfriend of a few months. I left her for a girl I ended up with for 3 years. After that, I met my husband.
I've never cheated in a relationship. I always just felt like if I desired that badly to be with someone else then I needed to break things off with my current relationship.
Same here...My ex was all those things, and had an affair w a co worker, told me he didn't want a family anymore and was hit/miss with coming home. He tried to creep around, I was skeptical, found out he was still cheating, and told the husband of the mistress. Well, over time of he & I talking, discovering emails between our spouses that were quite hateful and intimate..we had our own thing. After that, I knew it was over. I had already told him I wanted a divorce, just hadn't filed yet. I don't consider it cheating, and actually he doesn't either until he wants to place blame.
Quoting ShawnaFG:Quoting viv212:
I've cheated once in my life on an abusive ex. In my heart, I didn't feel like I cheated but according to him I did. Whatever, it was the best decision ever :)I was the same way. He accused me the whole 12 years we were together of cheating...So I got tired of being accused and did it. We have been divorced for 8 years now and he still tells everyone that is why we divorced. When actually the true reason is because he is a drunk, abusive and I didn't want my daughter to grow up in abusive house.
In the past, when I was a teen I was unfaithful once, it was revenge sex when I found out my then boyfriend was cheating on me.
I have had an emotional affair, but not physical affair while with my husband. It was early in our marriage and the person who was providing the emotional piece that my husband wasn't was a very good friend of mine. I met him around the same time that I started to date my husband. Honestly if I hadn't have been dating my husband I probably would have persued this guy. He was a part of our circle of friends so when my husband's band played out he was always there. There was definitely an "electricity" between us from the start. Any how in order to save my marriage I had to give up my friend. I did, I haven't seen/spoken to him in over 13 years. My husband and I went to marriage counselling and have just celebrated our 18th wedding anniversary.
Even though the relationship was not physical, I still consider as being unfaithful. I was turning to someone else instead of my husband.
When I first started dating, in high school, I was dating a guy named John. He introduced me to his best friend, also named John. I fell very hard for him-it was mutual, luckily. I always will feel bad for the first one, even though we would have ended things anyway.Not meant to be....
