So i was thinking today about my past relationships etc etc. My relationship history is rather questionable.... i have cheated on everyone that i have previously dated (present situation not included). and looking back on it, i dont think i have ever felt remorse for cheating... not even on the occasion(s) where SO found out.
granted most of the time i cheated it was because i felt trapped. The one ex who i cheated on the most really deserved it, it was a relationship i needed out of but he pretended to have cancer to guilt me into staying with him (didnt find out he faked it till several months later. he also faked it to his family and friends. severe pathological liar).
But the others i cheated on werent quite so malicious. Although i did feel trapped. Maybe its because i was young?
But yea, i know i am not the only one who has cheated or been a serial cheater on this board. So just wondering, for those that have been guilty of it in the past, why do you think you cheated and how did you feel afterwards? Guilty or shrugged it off?
Also, ETA im not looking for abuse for this. i stopped dating for a long time because i couldnt find relationships that worked for me and i always ended up unhappy and cheating, so i just quit dating i by extension quit cheating. Now that i am dating someone again the situation is different than it was a couple of years ago.
