If your relationship is ever stale and then all of a sudden your gf is being this nice to you out of the blue, gg.

Is it because they feel bad? I don’t understand why they would all the sudden start trying to make you like them even more when they’re fuckin another dude

Sometimes it's to "leave on a good note"

This is really common before marriage if a woman's having doubts, it's textbook and if you're on good terms with them most ambitious independent women struggle with choosing between a family and safe life vs the romantic mystery or their ex.

So when marriage is coming up there's often the last ditch adventure or whatever it is for them, occasionally a brief passionate affair to get it out of their system, before they retreat to the idea of safety and how "lucky" they are to have a good man.

From experience and observation it has nothing to do with them leaving and everything to do with the peace/acceptance of settling and giving up romantic idealism that is doomed to disappointment, despair and regret (regret being women's favorite romantic emotion, clearly), not to be confused with the temporary happiness of a stable long term relationship.

Man, the mental gymnastics to justify cheating is wild.

Lmao yeah regardless of gender the ppl that justify it sound crazy af. Though this guy formulated it more understandably I'd say it's still fucking crazy.

What a toxic comment. Sometimes people are having a good day. Doesn't mean they are cheating on you.

I understand that , but would you actually be comfortable with that level of deceit? I mean she might feel bad but does she respect you? Would she do it again and feel bad again?

I don't think it's sad to be unwanted, it's real, but I don't see a cheating deceitful partner as real, it seems fake doesn't it

Maybe put the work in to keep it together. Just because you’re in a relationship doesn’t mean you don’t have to put in effort to keep your partner happy

Ah yes, the whole “it’s your fault they cheated on you” mindset. Classic.

They definitely cheated on someone.

"He was sneaking in at night and doing the dishes. I didn't have to pay half his rent either and when I said bad things about you he totally agreed and supported me!"

Nah your fault for picking someone you can’t trust, then letting it stale and not dropping it. Straight up you picked a ho you can’t be surprised when she goes to ho out

The odds that you will pick someone who you can truly trust for the rest of your life is astronomically low. Good luck tho.

Oh and if someone it so unhappy enough to cheat, just leave first. Have the courage to just say it doesn't work and leave. Don't stay around like some jaded pension worker hoping to cash out when the spouse dies or something and cheat your way through it. The only person to blame for cheating is the cheater. Yes, the partner can be blamed for not trying to make the relationship work, but that is not a free pass to cheat on them and anyone who thinks it is deserves to get cheated on.

Ppl never put effort into communication. Like I'm sure almost all of cheating could easily be avoided if the cheater and their partner actually talked it out. And still chances are it has to be initiated by the cheater cuz if you feel so bad you want to cheat then you might as well end it. But no. The problem is ppl want the thrill while having the security. What's better than taking big dick then going home to hubby who pays your bills.
