being faithful

[fruitsalad]

do you think there are many people in relationships who have been completely faithful to their partners?

[radiogaga]

i have been faithful all the way (3 years)
and i intend to be for the remainder of our relationship.
why what have you been up to?

[fruitsalad]

nowt radio it just seems alot of people i speak to recently have all been up to no good at some time of another, and there always seems to be a lot of carrying on, on the tv soaps and in films etc.

[radiogaga]

mmm, i know what you mean.
people just dont seem to care or value each other as much.
i really feel its a stage you go through --and grow up from some people dont tho, men and women.

I have been faithful completely to my partner, I know what you mean though, adultery is all over the place at the moment..

Hey fruitsalad,

My partner and I were completely faithful to each other for six and a half years.

I have been unfaithful to previous partners - but they were unfaithful first lol

no i don't think so. don't think it's in our nature! but apparently, well in my experience, it is harder for men than women lol.

I've been faithful to my partner for all the time we've known each other (14 years - married for 13 of them).

And I 100% believe that he has been faithful to me too.

Guess when it's true love, being faithful comes easy!

We're into our 42nd year. 41 married, 6 weeks 'courting' I've never concidered anyone else and hopefully he aint either! I have two brothers, one 44 years and the other 46 years.

It's been 11 years of marriage so far, and neither of us's strayed. No need to if you love and respect someone.

I have cheated previously in relationships, which I'm not proud of, but I think the relationships I was in then weren't right or fulfilling. I should have just ended these bad relationships, rather than cheat, but I was weak.

I am very happy with my current partner, who I've been with for 18 months and have no desire to stray. I would hope if things don't feel right or I'm no longer happy, I would discuss this with my partner and not go behind his back.

I did not find cheating satisfying and it's so very wrong to deceive your partner, it's best to come clean and walk away from the relationship, before embarking on another.

Being faithful is a relative hypothesis.
Taking tea with someone at lunchtime and not disclosing such may be seen as an act of unfaithfulness.
Going to a strip club when your beautiful wife is awaitning you at home.
Kissing all the opposite sex staff at a Christmas party...........a slow and very close dance...........sending a joke Valentine card.........the list goes on.

[Ice.Maiden]

Correct me if I'm wrong, but I think the post was meant to describe unfaithfulness in terms of sexual activity with another person - not just giving someone a Christmas kiss, etc.
The things you've given as examples could be classed as annoying to some folk, but hardly stuff that you'd divorce someone for. Going to a strip club isn't particularly offensive. Most sensible wives & gfs'd laugh about it. Not disclosing a teatime meeting could be suspicious - if only for the fact that if it was all above-board, you'd tell your partner about it, and why. The slow dance & Valentine cards are nothing either, providing you do it openly or tell your partner what you're going to do. It's all about trust, but if you have a sexual fling with another person, you're breaking that trust by doing something that should be saved for the one you love, since it's such an intimate act.
