Lest I sound like it is only the women who stray;(and believe me, I KNOW men do too);

I know of a man, who has been married several times. He is now in his mid-50's, and is currently shacking up with a woman, who just underwent cancer surgery. She makes decent money (80k+, annualy), and has a lot of stock with P and G. Around her, he ACTS like he cares about her, BUT would think nothing of going out and having a fling. Recently, he has been working many miles away from home, and talks to other guys, of "the women he meets in bars, in those areas." He has already cheated on her, several times, apparently, and in his previous marriages, he apparently did so, with good, loving women, who genuinely cared about him, only to have him walk all over them, until they could not take any more. He makes fun of me, for only desiring one woman, and a real relationship, saying, "he needs more than one woman". Several days ago, him and his new coworker, or should I say, "drinking buddy", were trying to get me to allow them to "find me a woman. I refused, as they just want to get me drunk, and in a bar with them to be the prey of some whore.

SO-- I don't know why some men and women cheat, and use people-- to me, it is sick, and causes hurt to the other party. It comes down to immaturity, and selfishness, IMHO.
