Has anyone here ever cheated? why? Did the person you cheated on stay with you? Do you think men cheat more than women, or vice versa?

>>I think, and this is just my opinion, that men cheat more than women and the reason I said that is because I believe women put more into the relationship then a man does.<<
No matter how common that mindset may be among women in general, I still find it one of the most interesting ones among them anyway...fascinating actually.
Back in the old days, for those out there who can remember, it was all about people not being able to control their hormones and that was it. It seems more and more today that the has been MORE believed to be a matter of "commitment" related issues instead.
THAT is what I find interesting. When a guy sees another lady he finds attractive and ends up cheating with her, I don't really see that as her putting more into a relationship like the cheated lady was trying to. With THAT in mind, how could I, as a typical man of course, view women as being any more committed to relationships or more focused as a whole on working toward relationships if THEY are the very gender that men are also cheating with in the first place?
NOTE: Not "trying" to disagree here, but I AM trying to insert a "forgotten" point of view regarding this whole issue. Make any sense?
Maybe I'm just looking at this from a confused point of view, but if it makes sense to anyone, then there ya are...thats how I see it.

hey jennie, no prob! actually, i've learned something from your reply and the others, which is great. actually that's the whole reason why i come and read these boards in the first place: learning and understanding more about women.
i, obviously, know who i am and express my mind. no one else knows me around here though, if not from a few random posts. i felt comfortable enough to speak as though i wasn't speaking to people who don't know me, forget seeing me in person, but who might've not even read other posts of mine on other parts of the board.
this way it's easy to be misjudged when voicing an opinion on a touchy subject, if one doesn't explain where he/she comes from.
there was a lot of superficiality on my part in the first place.
i didn't feel like telling part of my life-story when writing the first post, but then ended up writing something which lead to a lot of misinterpretation...
glad if we understood each other and cleared things up.
anyway, no resentment at all, un abbraccio a te e ai tuoi bimbi, scommetto che cominci ad avere una pancia meravigliosa! (a hug to u & yr kids, bet u starting to have a beautiful belly).
ciao.
in my first post, i should've probably said "after trying in many ways to make things work and then understanding where my heart was at, instead of dragging those relationships on i moved on".
i have more than one friend (guys and girls) who are still in a relationship with their hi-school sweetheart, very long lasting relationships where they've faced many hard times and ups and downs overcoming all sorts of things and now many of them either cheat on each other on a regular basis or are unhappy and talk behind each others backs and stuff. how many people have the luck and maturity to find "the one" at 17, 20, 21? many of these, to me, cling on to relationships for fear/habit/whatever and don't have the guts to face things and break up. i think that's unhealthier.
My goodness, if I wasn't married I'd be knocking on your door..And yes, I've got a belly growing..And today, I felt a flutter in my belly..Its a girl, I know in my heart!
I'm glad there's no resentment. You really made my day when you said such beautiful things at the end of your post. You made me cry! *hugs* to you too! Feel free to e-mail me any time! lincolnwidow@aol.com
