If you were keeping them satisfied they wouldn't be cheating. You said that you had multiple men cheat on you. I'm just saying...

I get what your saying, believe me I do. If there was something that I wasn't doing to their "satisfaction" so to speak, then they should have been "man enough", to tell me, instead of cheating. The thing is, most of the men went back to something, ex w/kid. Kids played a big part. Oh I had a couple that were some doozies, all kinds of stuff came out.

VERY TRUE statement... my ex blamed me for his cheating... i went crazy all over that defense... but then, through counseling and scripture reading... he was right... if you keep your spouse satisfied, there is no reason for them to ever consider going elsewhere...and they wont. now grant it...i had what i thought were very good reasons to keep to myself and not care about his needs.. his drinking was just his #1 love...and i didnt feel love towards him because of that. I loved him with all my heart and soul - but he loved the drink more. i shut down and he wandered. he was an honest man prior to the drinking... i used to feel he would NEVER cheat on me... EVER...but when you're out there drunk and alone, i guess it definitely could open the door to others....whatever. it's all in the past now and i've learned more about myself. he's still drinking and i'm moving forward. we're still friends and i'm not bitter. life is grand when we all allow ourselves to move on...

And all of that may very well be true, but you cannot write off all men. They are not all jackasses.

Your user name is the most appropriate yet. Most women who have been cheated on only allowed it to happen once. If you have had multiple failed relationships that involved cheating, maybe the men aren't the problem.

What is the one constant in all those relationships? You.

Insanity is doing the same things over and over again and expecting a different result.

No... some people (men and woman) just feel the need to cheat and justify it as not being satisfied.
You being one of them. :yay:

So, you'd give up your friends for a man? Black book? We're talking platonic here, not sexual.

I shoot pool for fun. I will always have a cell phone full of guys' numbers that I like to shoot with. If I hook up with someone and he has issues with me keeping the numbers, he can kiss my ass good bye. I'd rather have male friends than girl friends. I have more in common with men. I love sports and love to shoot pool. I'm not girly so I tend not to hang out with alot of women.

I used to feel that way. The thing is most of my "male friends", weren't friends. They were pretending to be my friend. You can have platonic relationships but doesn't mean there aren't "sexual" thoughts running through their minds. It's the nature of the beast. In all fairness to my boyfriend, yeah, I might just have to give up the male friendships or include my new boyfriend in the group.

Oh honey, I'm so sorry for you. If you really believe that, it's a shame. Hell, it's hard to love on someone who can't stay sober and why would you want to? EW!! He loved alcohol more than you? Let him find another drunk and they can go crawl in a hole and drink themselves to oblivion and get satisfaction in that.

:confused: and how is that?
You boo hoo about someone being all up in your business. Make false accusations about someone then do the same. :shrug:
And proudly too! :lol:

Well, I've been friends with my guy friends for 10+ years. Now, I'm not saying that none of them would not bang me if granted the opportunity. But, they are only just my friends. There's nothing wrong with having and keeping friends of the opposite sex. If your bf's did not trust you enough to have male friends, than that's his issue, not yours. You were never truly those men's friends if you dumped them for some man you dated. :shrug:

Yes, women have male friends and vice versa. But, do you go somewhere without the hubby, meet a stranger, and exchange numbers? I guess it could happen. But, the text messages make it seem like it was more than that.

:yeahthat: The text messages indicate that this chick doesn't know he has a girlfriend. He should have texted her back to lose his number, which he shouldn't have given to her anyway, if he really is as committed to the relationship as his girlfriend is. It doesn't seem like he necessarily went out looking to meet another chick, but something's wrong here.

I have more male friends than female friends, which is no big deal. My guy friends and I call and text eachother often but not at 2 am. That's booty call time and you can bet if my husband's cell was ringing at that time, I'd be asking him who the heck's calling/texting him. I don't go out without my husband to give my phone # to some random dude I've never met before. I didn't do that before we were married either because we were in a committed relationship.
