Use of the word 'Cheater'
| Fri, 04-16-2010 - 9:02am |
How do you feel about it? To me it sounds very degrading.I would hate to call my AP a 'cheater'.I would rather say wayward spouse.We both fell in love and we are choosing to stay in the A till the circumstances change.'Cheater' sounds derogatory ( to me ).
Just my thought of the day :)
OTH,I wouldnt mind if the betrayed spouse was using the term.

I dunno, I think it's pretty accurate, by my definition of "cheater" anyway.
Here's a definition of "cheater" online:
S: (n) deceiver, cheat, cheater, trickster, beguiler, slicker (someone who leads you to believe something that is not true)
"Someone who leads you to believe something that is not true".
We are leading our spouses to believe that our only romantic relationship is with them. That is not true. By this definition, we are cheaters.
It's not a pretty definition, and there are others we can use that "pretty it up" and are accurate, but this definition fits too.
Proud to be a
You've
I think it's definitely fair to call ourselves "cheaters".
(( Hugs )) NO relationship can work w/o mutual respect.
Mail me if you want to talk as I do remember you from long ago as I may not post here.
I'm sorry Doll, but I have to burst your bubble.
In response to your post. I couldn't of summed it up better and the very words you used to explain your A is the very same way I feel and have said it in my mind countless times. I have a great life and feel I'am not worthy of all the love I've been given and truly feel because I love buddhism that I will get my karma in my next life. I'm so terrified of this and it's so hard to stop.
Much peace & Love,
