 Spoomonkey, Shaheena, LYTD...I was just stating my opinion
I should have made that clear. Not enough coffee yesterday.
Seriously, though, I see your point and making a blanket statement like "Once a cheater, always a cheater" is like saying "Single men can't be trusted until they get married" or "All dogs have rabies and kill children". BUT...
I always try to think about everyone involved. Just because I never see or have contact with the other person in a relationship doesn't mean what I say and do with one half of a couple will not have an influence on the other one. I've been cheated on by a woman, and it was not nice. I can't help thinking, when I find out someone is married and wanting to play behind her partner's back, "how did I feel when I found out E* had cheated and lied to me?"
Again, I was speaking from my experiences and what I've learned and observed. People do change, but only if they REALLY want to change.
