“I wanted both things, and I was a selfish, immature shit.
I’ve never regretted anything more than hurting my partner like that.”

I vowed never to cheat again, especially after feeling the pain myself.
3.Immaturity, and a lot of insecurity.
Wish I didnt have to hurt someone to figure it out though.
4.Fear of being alone.But thats the way it came.
5.Ive never cheated on anyone, but my dad had an affair once.
6.I was in an abusive relationship and wanted to feel like I had power over something.
7.I cheated with an ex long term SO.
That relationship was was so fucking co-dependent and unhealthy.
The break up made me want to die.
I was trying so hard to move on and put myself back together.
I didnt want to end the new relationship.
It was because of my own baggage not the new SO.
8.I have cheated once.
He cheated on me.
He was my best friend.
He was my family.
But we didnt have sex.
It killed me inside.
I felt terrible about it afterwards.
I confessed to my boyfriend and he went insane.
He punched the windshield of my car and shattered it while I was driving.
I was young, naive and he was everything to me.
9.I was in an abusive relationship but I didnt love myself enough to leave it.
10.Ive never been in a relationship, but know two people who have cheated.
Both said they still loved their SO, but something was missing and they sought that from other people.
They didnt want to leave their current relationship, because they were still getting something good from it.
But something else important was missing, so they simply got THAT from another.
12.It was a dead bedroom situation.
And not just no sex, but no intimacy, no connection and fairly toxic.
But I felt stuck in the overall relationship and didnt know how to get out.
I was separated and divorced two months later.
He was a very,verymorbid man, which didnt show until years into the relationship to begin with.
14.Because I justified to myself that it wasnt cheating at first.
Ive never told this story before but I was in a relationship that I was pretty unhappy in.
We moved in together and things got worse.
My girlfriend was bisexual and had some interest in a threesome.
I told my girlfriend about her, strictly mentioning the physical aspect and she told me to pursue it.
I did and we all went out for drinks one night and it happened.
It was very strange because it hit me during that I had real feelings for the other girl.
After that I started seeing the other girl somewhat regularly and was officially cheating.
We have been together ever since and married for 3 years with a new baby.
I will alway feel terrible about how things ended.
Last I heard and saw she was doing great things in her life and was in a great relationship.
15.What happened: I was crossfaded to the point where I didnt really know what was happening.
Which Im sure is actually true.
I think that might have played a part in what I did.
Why didnt I end the relationship before?
He was a great person, and I didnt think I could do any better.
