You fall in and out of love a few times during your life, if you’re lucky. It’s such an experience being part of a relationship. There is a lot of truth behind the saying “It’s better to have loved and lost than never to have loved at all.”
Being in a relationship makes you aware of the type of person you are and you learn to compromise (a very important thing to learn). You develop independently but also learn to be part of a team.
The experience, be it good or bad, that comes from different relationship makes you a stronger, more open-minded person. I think a good basis for a relationship is to treat your partner as you would like to be treated and don’t cheat!
If you know a friend’s partner is cheating on them, should you spill the beans? It is an extremely tricky situation because if you tell and the couple breaks up, you will always be associated with the break up.
If I were in the situation, I would confront the person who was cheating and tell them I knew what they were up to. It would then up to them to rectify the situation. You get no thanks for being the messenger and for creating a big drama where people end heartbroken, embarrassed and angry.
You’re all going to hate this, but in my opinion men do the dirt/cheat/ have affairs more than women. Women as a whole are more emotional than men. If a woman does the dirt on her boyfriend, there’s the emotional turmoil she has to deal with.
I am not saying all women are like this because there are women out there who have one night stands (while in a relationship) and feel no regret whatsoever the following morning.
It’s usually more of an emotional thing for women, whereas it’s a totally physical thing for men. A lot of the bold boys out there don’t give it much thought after the deed is done.
I think cheating is for cowards. When people get caught cheating, they always have excuses as to why they did it. For example: “I wasn’t happy in my relationship.” If you aren’t happy in your relationship, end it! Doing the dirt is certainly not going to fix the problem, break up with your partner and then do whatever the hell you want.
If you find out that your boyfriend or girlfriend is cheating on you, don’t beat yourself up over it. It’s not your fault they’ve been unfaithful; it’s a weakness on their part. As I said before, treat people, as you would like to be treated.
