Poll of the Day > What is your opinion on marriage and cheating within a marriage?

(+) Yeah! (+)

For me, if the temptation of cheating comes about, you either need to seek help and talk about it or just get a divorce before it actually happens.

Thoughts?

Cheating is bad. I would never do it. And I hope my SO wouldnt, as well. Cheating is absolute grounds for dismissal. And we wont get back together. Cheating is really bad.

Marriage has a few benefits. Though, its usually more of a female thing. Not trying to be sexist, but females usually do come out on top in a marriage. Unless there is a pre-nup. Then things should be fine. Also, its usually women who want a perfect wedding. Not always though. For me, Im not getting married. And I dont think my SO wants to. Hes been married and divorced twice. We like what we have, so...
But cheating in a marriage is no different. Well, its actually worse. But if you can get proof, do that. And use that proof in court. But I would never stay with a cheater. I couldnt...

Never cheat, always communicate. It's not worth causing someone (who you are supposed to love and care about) pain, just for temporary pleasure.

If you really want it, talk to your significant other and come to a solution, or end the relationship if you can't.

I am very against cheating on people.

Marriage? Not needed unless for finical reasons and even then I don't care about it.
Cheating? That's bad period. If someone ever cheated on me I doubt very much I'd forgive them as the trust would be gone.

This.
What consenting adults do with each other is their business. But all parties have to consent. If you're in a relationship, even if your partner isn't doing the 'deed', they're a party in this.

Cheating is never okay. Maybe if you're both into it, but is it really cheating if it's consenual?

YEah, I'm all for open relationships if both parties are into it, or adding another person/others into the mix (especially together). Nothing wrong with that at all, and not considered cheating, since you again, are communicating.

aside from stuff like tax reasons i don't see a reason to get married. if the relationship is going to last, being married won't make much of a difference.

cheaters are scumbags, i would never knowingly sleep with someone who was involved with someone else

I completely agree. Some of the absolute worst pain you can go through. I'd rather be dissected in a f***ing lab while conscious or something.
