No, but my one relationship that lasted more than a week ended in her cheating on me

If you never cheated when you were under 30, you may be a saint, but more likely I'd worry a little.

If you're still cheating when you're over 30, you are in the wrong relationship.

I never had a serious relationship until Mrs Hydey came along, before then is was just sex with no feelings involved.

I'm married, and my wife is the one and only one. She was, she is and she will be. That's what I promised her.

Cheating is often just a cowards way of breaking up a relationship. If you're not able to control where you stick your disgusting little limb or you use it as a way out you're not even half of a real man.

advise: if you can't control yourself if you're drunk, don't get drunk. Believe me, everything you do while you're drunk does count.

Suspect: I was drunk while I killed him.
Judge: aaaaah, that changes everything, not guilty.

Wouldn't that be "the other other guy", given your orientation?

I've only had one real relationship. And I did not cheat. Nor would I cheat. I see no reason to cheat, anyways. I mean, if lack of sex in a relationship becomes a problem, I'd end it before looking elsewhere. And I'm too lazy when it comes to 'playing the field'. I like to find a girl and stick with her. I'm a habit forming person, and I like consistency in my life. I'm also not fond of drama BS.

I'm not in the type of relationship where cheating has a meaning. But there are two people that if I slept with, my significant other would definetely have something to say.

But well, no one but her really wants me, so it doesn't matter.

I had a chick cheat on me once, but I've never cheated on anybody. Whenever I get itchy feet I just end the relationship.

no..never ever ever ever..
however i have been cheated ON (by more than one ofmy partners...yes..i somehow have managed to find alot of losers) and i can say it is the most wretched feeling ever...you end up blaming yourself because you think it was your fault...though eventually you have to come to realize it wasn't you but them who couldn't keep their genetalia to one person......
it's just better to say "we need a break" or break off the relationship rather than go sow your oats in more than one place...
yes i'm very opinionated on the subject

Guys who cheat on their so´s deserve to be strung up by their balls (preferably with barbed wire) IMO. You can´t have the cake and eat it at the same time.

And no, I´m really not jealous...

Does it work for you? I´ve had a few, but they always seem to end in tears ( too possessive I guess )

I've had open relationships, and they indicate being less committed to one another than you are to yourselves. This is not a slam -- it describes 99% of healthy relationships in high school and college and most in early adulthood as well. Most girls and ALL guys who don't play the field in college are being sexually self-destructive.

A good test of an open relationship when you are an adult (say, 30ish) is the thought experiment of what you'd feel like if you hit a dry spell and had just your s.o. as a partner for an entire year, while they had many, many partners. If you could deal with that, then go for it. If not, then you are probably not in a situation where an open relationship is a good idea.

I think I´ve already made up my mind on this one. In fact I did it like 5 years ago... When I´m in a relationship there is noone else but my g/f and I. If she starts fooling around with other guys she´s out! And I expect the same from her if I pulled some crap like that.
