RomanceRe: Do Men Really Forgive & Forget? by Ridiculed: 5:45pm On Sep 01, 2012
Well, in Brasil a man who's wife or girlfriend has cheated on him is called a Corno. Corno in portuguese is "horns", horns of the bull. You see, a cattle Bull doesn't care if other Bulls screw any of the cows he screws.
If other people know your girlfriend/wife cheated on you then they call you a Corno. It basically is like calling you a fool. Other men would dump their woman out of pride for their manhood if she cheated. Those same men will not respect you if you stay with a girl after she has cheated. It means that you must be desperate and can't get another woman. So rather than originally your woman, the woman you love, being your pride and joy, now she is your shame and misery. By continuing to stay with her she now symbolises your inability to get another girl whereas before she cheated on you she symbolized what you CHOSE to be with not what you can get and in this case you chose your girl to be her. Now it looks like you were lucky to get her and you are so desperate to stay with her because you can't replace her with a girl who is faithful.
Its a total mess. What I am saying here is that its not so much men as it is society. Even Braislian women would think you are a corno because thats the culture. And other men are always trying to hit on an attractive woman, regardless of whether she is attached to someone else.
If someone cheats on you with infidelity, I know its hard, really hard if you truly loved them, but you have to kick them to the curb.
