I would feel terribly guilty, and I know it would show, I would not be able to conceal it.

Is it being unfaithfull if theres nothing between the couple

I just wouldn't do it. I've had someone do it to me and it was awful.

Being unfaithful is something which I really don't understand the attraction of. I know people say it's exciting or whatever but I just really can't get my head around what makes people want to sneak around and lie to their partners. Surely if you want to have sex with someone else it means the relationship you're in is not working...? Unless of course you have an agreement with your partner that it's ok - but to be honest I don't really understand that either. :huh:

I just think it's easier to break up with the person than to lie to them and sneak around. But maybe that's just my opinion.

are you a couple in the sense of sleeping together ?

I could never be unfaithful to my wife, even if temptation was put in front of me, which it has on more than one occassion.

If there's nothing between them why stay together? Surely it's less messy in the long run to just split up and avoid the betrayal and lies...?

As I would not be unfaithful to my patner, there'd be no need for any guilty feelings!


My conscience would not let me betray my partner in that way.

Never tried it, but I imagine Id be rigid with guilt. Im terrible at deception of any kind and I cant even hide Christmas presents or Birthday gifts because Im so transparent even my kids know Im up to something.
I hate myself for it, Im not in the least bit religious, and I have the morals of a sewer rat so theres no reason for a guilt thing.

No way!

I need to have an affair in Yorkshire. With the mother soil beneath my feet, Im sure that Id be able to fight the pangs of guilt and drag myself out of the nervous rictus.

Half way is... Derbyshire...? Too many fossils there, Id be mistaken for a trilobite.

God that just sent a shudder of LUST along my ratty little spine!

OF COURSE YOU WOULD IF YOU LOVED THE MISSUS. IF NOT THEN YOU WOULDNT. IVE MET LOTS OF PEOPLE WHO HAVE BEEN HAVING AFFAIRS, MOST ARE BECAUSE THEYRE JUST NOT HAPPY. THAT DOESNT MEAN THERES ANYTHING WRONG WITH THE PARTNER. BOREDOM A BIT OF EXCITMENT IN LIFE A YOUNGER PARTNER ARE ALL TEMPTING. IT USUALLY ENDS IN TEARS.SOMETIMES YOU GET TIT FOR TAT AFFAIRS GOING ON. THE WORST IVE EVER HEARD WAS AN OLD FRIEND OF MINE AND HIS GIRLFRIEND FOUND OUT THEY WERE GOING TO HAVE A BABY. THIS WAS DISCOVERED AT AN EARLY STAGE.A EW WEEKS LAER THE GIRL STARTED AN AFFAIR WITH A FAMOUS MUSICIAN. SHE HAD AN ABORTION AND RA OFF WITH THE "STAR" WHEN HE'D FINISHED WITH HER SHE CAME CRAWLING BACK, AND MY FRIEND HAD HER BACK:loopy:

Cheats are cruel and spineless and the feeling of guilt is too good for them. If you feel guilt about something then it shows a level of morality and anyone that can break a trust in such a way has no morals whatsoever. If you are the kind of person that cheats then you deserve to feel the pain you cause nd no less.

I was unfaithful last year for the first time ever- I admit it - did I feel guily about the situation.

NOPE - not one jot!

The reason why dear friends - my relationship was a total sham with my ex partner, I wasnt happy as I thought I was until I met someone who lets me be the real me - and I am loving it so far.

So nope, I didnt feel guilty at all as I felt it was the right thing to do in the circumstances to end a relationship that I felt was dead in the water.

07-05-2007, 17:17

Yeah, make yourself feel better by making someone else feel bad. If you really cared about their feeling, I suppose you could argue that they should keep quiet... although their partner might not see it that way.

I heard it mentioned once it;s called "transference"

Well, transference in the psychological sense is more to do with relating feeling for one person to another. What I was describing was more projection in the sense of a defence mechanism.

never go out to sea without a pair of oars, I went to Knaresborough, and thought I would relive going on the Ouse,on a school outing, I got in this boat, and there was no going back (it wasn't the same river) and it was jigging all over the place and I had to somehow manage these huge heavy oars, at one end was a big drop, boy was I glad to get out, got my money's worth though

You would seriously lower yourself to their level?
I'd just get rid of them, I've been on the recieving end of a cheat before and usually if they do it once they will do it again.

Two wrongs never make a right, especially in matters of the heart or the bedroom.

I certainly wouldn't stay with him, he'd get the divorce papers asap and then I'd get my life back, what I hate is deception, because it doesn't give you the choice to leave, and how many years could you have wasted until you found out

The physical act is indeed the least of it. The lies and humiliation and the feeling that your trust has been somehow defiled are the worst things.
I know some people that actually get off on the rush of the deception more than the act itself.
Sick B*****ds.

I'm really sorry to hear that actually. I remember the strong conviction that you had about your relationship. :confused:

I remember something you wrote which gave people hope. I'm sorry it's kind of ended up this way.

I agree with you completely, Bago.

I remember the lovely things Angelus used to say about his fiancee, and I was sad for them both when the relationship ended. It seemed to be such a fantastic relationship, and was lovely to hear about on here.
