Would you still cheat if there was a 0% chance of your SO finding out?

Still? If someone would otherwise, I assume they also would if there was no chance of getting caught.

no ring means fair game dude.

Whaatttt!!?.....If you people can't be faithful to one person why bother having a gf or bf much less getting married? You should have declared a non-exclusive dating agreement before hand. Such dishonesty reflects poorly on your character.

Rings don't plug holes dude.

Well, this sort of question requires details about who this other person would be. Because if you feel like you kinda just ended up in the relationship by default and suddenly along comes someone who you click with unbelievably well, loves everything you love, finds you ridiculously interesting, looks ultra cute, but simultaneously is ridiculously interesting and intelligent themselves, well...I guess I wouldn't actually cheat even then, but only because I'd probably break up with my SO before making my true love the official new SO.

Of course, I'm probably a lot freer to say this than most of you are since most of you probably HAVE SO's and wouldn't care for them to see your post saying anything sketchy.

Aside from this rare circumstance of finding yourself in a relationship in which you aren't really in love and finding your true love one day, no I would never ever ever cheat, no matter how hot the girl is. Not even Anna Kournikova, and not even Jessica Alba.

Wait...did I just say that? Hmm does it count as cheating if you call your girlfriend up and tell her that Jessica Alba wants to sleep with you, and then BEG her to let you? LOL
Cuz I mean...if your girlfriend is cool that might fly lol.

You may love someone else enough to make love to them instead of your wife/gf. That simply means it's time to move on. What's wrong with that? It's human nature IMHO and should have no right or wrong.

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA Grow up.

No. Anybody could do it with a near 0% chance if they weren't stupid, but it's not very nice.

of course not.

i wouldn't have married her if i wanted to be with other women.

it has nothing to do with the chances of her finding out.

No, never. And if she didn't feel the same way, I wouldn't have married the wonderful woman I did. :)
