How do women cope with cheating? When they do the cheating and when they’ve been cheated on? (Stephen, 34)

Unless you’re dating a Realdoll, don’t expect her to cope too well with cheating. As if the sneaking, lying, and betraying isn’t bad enough, in this day and age you’re putting her health and well being at risk also. What if you cheat on your lady and bring home an STD? So, not only will you crush her emotionally, but you just gave her something that will effect her for the rest of her life. Bottom line, if you are absolutely set on cheating make sure you wear protection and remember Karma’s a bitch.
As far as women go when it comes to them doing the cheating, I can’t answer that from experience but I assume it is just a need that their man isn’t fulfilling, whether emotionally or physically. If you know your woman is cheating my advice, get out. Trying to patch up a relationship after in infidelity is like trying to spoon out water from a sinking boat.

As some one who has been cheated on and has cheated as well, I can tell you cheating normally eats away at you. When I used to cheat it was because I was bored and settling with some one. After a while it just got to me because I was not happy in either relationship and then I would normally break up with the guys at the same time.
On the other hand being cheated on sucks more. I normally just dumped their asses after they came out to me and told me they cheated. There has only been one where I stayed and tried to see if we could make it. I only stayed because of the timing of when it happened. It was still very hard for me to get over and trust him again, but if you think you can get over it then try. It will always effect a relationship either way. No matter how long you are with that person. Just remember that.
Here’s how I handle it. It doesn’t matter if it’s emotionally of physically cheating, because both are horrible in their own ways. I kind of think emotionally cheating is much worse though. The way I dealt with it, I filed for divorce. Especially if you’re married, it’s UNACCEPTABLE!!! So my advice for people who are contemplating cheating, don’t do it. Tell the person you’re with that you’re unhappy, then break-up or whatever, then do whatever or whoever you want! It’s much more fun if it’s done the right way…
