To cheat, or not to cheat, that is the question that many have asked throughout history.
There are those who would be offended that the question should even be asked at all, there are those who would commit the act without the slightest hesitation, and then there are those who protest just a tad too much (those are the ones you really watch out for).
Once I had a friend who cheated on his girlfriend, so I asked him why he did it. He said he had no idea if she was sleeping around, and in case she was, he’d better sleep around too just to even the score. If she isn’t cheating, then he wins. If she is, he’s not losing.
That was a very cynical way to look at life, and my friend wasn’t right in his assumption. Turns out, his girlfriend wasn’t cheating, but she did find out about him doing so. He ended up losing out on a really amazing girl*.
*That’s why one should never assume that just because a guy cares a lot about whether you cheat or not, that he actually has integrity himself. He might just want to be the only cheater in the relationship. Sometimes, the cheaters make the most suspicious partner because that’s how they view the world.

"cheaters make the most suspicious partner" never thought of it that way before but it makes sense!
yes it's counter intuitive but true!
