Look at it like this - the whole cheating relationship depends ENTIRELY/100% on the girl receiving the advances. So how can ANYONE but her be to blame?
Why's this so hard to understand?
It's only technically "cheating", if she does something with a guy other than her "current" BF, and then goes back to him, and never officially broke it off. However, it's entirely possible that she's essentially broken up with her current BF in her mind (so from her POV it's not cheating at all), she just hasn't informed him of that fact yet, because she's been holding off on doing so until she can manage to line up another "steady" in the meantime. Immature of her? Sure. But it happens all of the time, I've seen it. Will the (now prior) BF consider it "cheating", and take issue with the current guy? Likely, since he was kept out of the loop.
But I've seen women, that actually
want the "new guy" to have a forcible confrontation with their "ex", to "claim" them from that ex. And if the new guy refuses to take a stand/avoid the confrontation, then she decides that the new guy isn't worth it, so she goes back to her ex, even if he is abusive or treats her poorly, because the new guy is "weak" and at least her ex is "strong", even if he is an abusive a-ho. (IMHO, she doesn't see the new guy as "honorable" at all, in holding off until she breaks it off with the ex herself. In fact, she completely lies to herself, feeling that it should be the man's place to "claim" her from her ex, and not her place to break it off with her ex.) Sorry if that offends anyone's theoretical geek view of the world, but all of these guys that say to stay away until she breaks it off - no wonder some geeks don't get women - they spend their time in a theoretical world, ignoring the real one. I know that I've done that all too much myself, and speaking as one that attempted (foolishly!) to be "honorable" - that's complete bull, and I apparently missed out on a wealth of potential opportunities because of that stance. The truth is, that's just a figment of the male mind, women don't care. All they care about, is if you give them what they want, or not. If you do, they want you. If you don't, they dont. That's the bottom line, really. Everything else on the subject is philisophical bull.
