I Cheated On My Boyfriend With A Married Man - Please Advise by Aleovera: 9:19pm On May 12, 2013
Hello house,

I have been a consistent guest on this forum and decided to hop on to the next level by becoming a member.. yayy smiley

Okay so, as regards the subject, let me start by giving a brief description of myself or the sort of person I used to be. I used to think of myself as really disciplined, principled and one who would never compromise her values or standards. Also, I used to be so quick to pass judgement. I never could understand why girls dated married men and deluded themselves into thinking they were in love! Not only did I find such circumstances disgustingly annoying but also judged the ladies as silly, stupid, gullible, irresponsible, thoughtless, selfish and cruel!

I also had zero tolerance for people who cheat on their partners. I saw them as discontented and highly undisciplined individuals.

However, I have had reason to change my perspectives as a result of some recent happenings in my life!

I cheated on my partner with a married man! shocked I am totally shocked at myself! The crazy part of this is that I think I fell in love with this married man! My boo and I are tight and have been together for well over 4years and I always thought I could never be attracted to any other man. I have tried to put an end to this craziness because it just ain't worth it but its so hard.

The purpose of this thread is to:
1) Let you all who think so highly of yourself to be careful lest you fall. Never say never! Never think you are too disciplined or smart or principled to fall for certain temptations. Those who know me will never believe me if I tell them I fell for adultery (I can't even believe myself)

2)Seek counsel from people who have gone through this kind of stuff. You had an affair you knew you had to get out of but just couldn't, how did you deal with it.

What I have been doing lately is praying and deliberately not contacting this married dude. (I still find myself thinking about him)I also told my boo I needed a break!

Please let's discuss maturely as I believe there are so many people going through this kinda stuff but cant share with anyone because of the fear of condemnation and peoples hypocritical and self righteous attitude!

A friend said married men are very normal people, it is just that they are married! She said this when I once questioned how a girl would have inappropriate relations with a man, knowing he is married. We often feel we gat it under control and certain things are beneath us but alas...

[size=13pt]What I'm getting from this is that you once believed cheating was wrong, but because you're now a cheat yourself, your perspective has changed? Give me a break.

As far as I'm concerned, cheating is one of the worst forms of disrespect to a partner or spouse, and people who cheat are discontented and highly undisciplined human beings. There is such a thing as self-control. In your case, it's not that you lost control, but that you know what's right and wrong and have chosen to do wrong on more than one occasion. You are giving yourself to another woman's husband. What does marriage even mean to you, if anything at all? I'm assuming you want to get married one day. Isn't marriage a sacred union that people are supposed to hold at high regard? If you're disrespecting and desecrating another woman's union, what makes you think yours should even be average, let alone sweet?

How on earth could you even take a break with your boyfriend? If you loved him at all, you wouldn't even consider leaving him for another woman's husband. You told him you need a break as if you're the one that's being hurt. Add the word "selfish" along with discontented and highly undisciplined please.

You are not just wrong, but double wrong. If you have any ounce of morality left in you, come clean with your boyfriend and let him go. I wonder what he's done to deserve having an adulterer as a girlfriend.

And we wonder why STDs are rampant. Shey na 2013? Smh.[/size]

You know, you have a point in your 1st point, sometimes we do things we never believe we can do... So, I ll try not to Judge you.
But If you are trying to justify flaws then you are not ready to make amends.

As for you friend,
Tell her to stay away from married men, they are taken that is what make them different.

Ogugua, thank you for the welcome. Honestly babe I understand why you seem so vexed and can relate with the passion your post exudes. Reason is I have been at the very place you are. I think you kinda misunderstood the content of my post, I did not leave my boyfriend for a married man, ( I fell in love not loose my mind). The reason I took a break was not to play the victim as you also wrongly assumed, but to re-evaluate things.

I have no intention of stealing any woman's man because I do not see myself having a meaningful relationship with a man who is already taken. Like I said, this thread is to assist all(myself included) who have been entangled in wring relationships to take the bold step of getting out by discussing meaningful ways to do that.

Get rid of the judgmental attitude!

Sometimes i don't understand you women. How old are you sef that you're acting like a freaking uni teenager? Dont you know what you want? Don't you love your boyfriend? How can you fall in love with a married man? Does your love have no reason?

Okay okay. It's too bad what you did but lets leave that. Look at your plan now, you want to give your boyfriend heart trouble by calling for a break with no good reason and then you plan to come back to your boyfriend when you're ready and keep the secret from him? Is it fair? We may not judge you for your mistake but i damn well will judge you from your current action, infact from what you're doing now, were you ever whom you claimed to be? Why don't you want to do the right thing

[size=13pt]No, you truly don't understand. If you're cheating with a married man, then you don't understand. Put yourself in the man's wife shoes. If they have children, put yourself in their shoes as well. Then, consider the implications of all of them finding out.
We get it. There are men who cheat. There are married men who cheat. That's a fact of life. However, just because he wants to be stupid doesn't mean you should follow him and be stupid. If you have any self-worth, then you wouldn't stoop so low.

I didn't misunderstand you. You said you cheated on your partner with a married man and took a break from your current boyfriend. I don't think it gets any more explicit than that. What is there to reevaluate? You don't love your boyfriend if you're hiding this from him and telling yourself you've fallen in love with another woman's husband.

If you have no intention of stealing someone else's husband, then cut your ties with him and face your own partner. I know what you or anyone else will say. "It's not that simple". Of course it's not that simple. Why? For one of two reasons. Either because you don't know what you want, or because you want the two of them simultaneously.

Make your choice. The options are actually crystal clear.[/size]

Don't misunderstand me. She said that to make me understand that the fact that they are married doesn't make them less appealing. They are just as easy to like as a single dude and the title married doesn't make them abnormal but just out of bounds.

I used to think I could NEVER be found in certain situations, this kind is even unthinkable! But the fact that it did has made me more careful about a lot of things.

I really am excited reading your posts. Its a clear reflection of how much I have grown! Try to get out of yourself, I mean attempt not to respond from the basis of your values and principles, just be a bit open minded. I am telling you, that even as I type this I am in shock that this could happen to me, all because I thought so highly of myself and took things for granted and was caught unawares!

I have attempted to cut ties with him but still slip occasionally. You are currently in love I suppose, imagine he is the wrong person and you have to let go, how do you do that? That's why its not that simple.

[size=13pt]You've grown to be a married man's side piece of bum. There's growing up and then there's reversion. You can fill in the blanks.

I've made my own hard decisions and I'm grateful I did. I'm a better and happier person for it. It wasn't easy, but it was possible. It was doable.

Solving your problem is doable, except for the fact that you don't want to do anything apart from exonerate yourself from any guilt or wrongdoing. You don't want to change. Until you're ready to want a change and actually do that change, you'll be in your conundrum.[/size]

Young woman, you are simply confused, disillusioned and hallucinating.

You are like a dog chasing it's own tail going round and round in circles.

You are like some demented mouse on a thread mill.

You keep burning enrgy trying to exonerate yourself but you ain't doing that. You are simply on the same spot saying the same darned thing.

What you did cannot be defended. You fell in love with a married man and cheated on your BF cos of greed. And by greed, it is not about money, you saw in him what you don't have and you wanted it for yourself.

You saw the property of another woman and you longed for it. You did longer throat and you want to come here to defend it with the usual "It can happen to anyone" BS.

Are you the only single lady out there? Selfishness and greed. Perfect combo.

Very insightful points I must say. Actually, I know what I want, that is why I am not looking to pursue a meaningless relationship with the married dude! I am seriously working on doing the right thing hence my decision to cut of ties with him. But then it doesn't change the fact that I have feelings for him. Feelings are not switches that one can turn off at will. Also, is telling my boo about that immoral affair really the right thing to do?

@OP
- do you think that what you did is "now" something RIGHT to do, simply because you made that mistake?
- are you saying that being attracted to another man is ALL what it takes to justify cheating on your partner?
- have you confessed to your partner that you cheated on him, the person that gave you trust etc?!
- how exactly do you intend to RIGHT the WRONG you did, and help future people that may be in your predicament?
- if you now believe that it is ok to cheat (for whatever flimsy reason) then the only reason you didnt do that before was NOT because you were a GOOD partner, but simply because you had not met the proper person to cheat on your partner with.

Your assumption is wrong.

@ Myndd: You seem so angry, why? you can actually make your point in a civil manner you know.

Now let me make this clear, there is no intention to justify any wrong here, I am not looking to keep the relationship, rather I want out hence my calling on all who have been in similar situation to share how they handled it.

Simple. Greed and selfishness.

And oh before we forget, the man too has some blame in this. It am blaming the OP not cos she cheated with a married man but because she cheated.

The fault of a married man cheating is on the man himself. The OP has no business with the wife as she did not swear in front of God and man to her, he did
