If someone told you that your SO was cheating on you, what would you do?

I'd ask her if it is true. ("confront" sounds so, well, confrontational.)

I would not believe them.

Depends. Who's "someone"?

My first thought would be the ulterior motive scenario, followed by mistaken identity, exaggeration of something innocent...I'd go through all the possibilities. If it was true, I'd do the same as if I'd walked in on them: Get drunk and wallow in self-pity with a C&W soundtrack.

I'd tell them that I already knew and that it wasn't cheating.

Oh, right; that didn't even occur to me.

I would be devastated, and not know who to believe. It may depend on who told me. If my best friend said that, I would be more likely to believe than if someone who didn't like me said that. But I would still be crushed, and I would cry and cry and cry and cry and cry until I couldn't cry anymore. Then I don't know what I would do.

I'd confront her with the rumour. Her body language will tell me the truth.

I would talk with my husband (I don't like the idea of "confronting" him).

I don't have a SO.

I would laugh in their face.

Other.

How is it not cheating?

Cheating suggests breaking some rule. In the context here, if someone came to me and told me my SO was cheating, what they'd really be saying is that my SO was having sex with someone other than me. Since that's not against our rules, it's not cheating.

It's not against the rules in your relationship with your SO? Or are you saying that cheating should be fine for everyone?

...assuming I talked to my SO about it, I would believe my SO. If she were the type of person to lie, I wouldn't be with that person in the first place.

I was answering the question of what I'd do if someone told me my SO was cheating on me.

I'd be very suspicious of the person telling me first of all. I'd certainly question their possible motives. My next step would, of course, be to question my husband about it to see how he reacted to the information. Most likely this would assure me the person was just trying to cause problems.

Do my SO in the ass hard till I go the truth!!!! >

I think I'd try to find out whether it was true. Odd that the survey didn't include an option for that. It seems like a really obvious course of action. I checked ``question his motives,'' ``question whether he's telling the truth,'' and ``other.'' I didn't check ``confront my S.O. about it'' because I'd only do that if I thought the story was plausible.

This would never happen. My husband is extremely faithful.

I'd depend on the reliability of my source - is it a close friend or a casual acquaintance? I'd also talk to my SO about it. She gets the last word.

I think we all know what I would do if it were true. lol
I would question the other persons motives, if this person was a good friend and a reliable source I would put more thought into it.

In other words you trust your SO, but that doesn't mean he's not fudging someone else!!!

I would discuss it with my SO and believe his response. I trust him completely. Without trust, there is no basis for a relationship.

ANONYMOUS just because you are an unfaithful whore does not mean every other man is grow some balls and comment un-anonymously!!!!

Being realistic is what life is all about.

I wonder why ASEXYBABE gets so much abuse from anonymous? lol

I would venture to say its because she's such a dog.

Well, I like her!!

ASB: Ignore the anonymous jerks!

Actually, I think she's lightened up the last while!

Depends on WHO it was that was telling me so...
If it was my best-friend that I've know sense I was 3, I know she's telling the truth & has no reason to hurt me therefore I'd dump my SO. If it were someone I didn't know really well, I'd have to look at the situation & discuss it with my SO.

I don't pay any attention to those anonymous butt-holes They are just jealous that they are not me

I'd be happy I wasn't the only one who cheated!

Really, this has happened before to me, and i have reacted in so many different ways, so i checked off a whole bunch!

I would say "Yes, and?"

i would cut off his manhood and fry it in a pan. Excuse the grossness, but it's just unacceptable

Chop his cock off.

I would ask her why she didn't trust me. Truth is all that counts.

I don't have a SO.....

I agree with my wife. You are a coward. I would never cheat on my wife. It would seem that life is all about fudging to you. Maybe you should be realistic with your miserable self. Life is all about love and happiness. Having someone to share that with is a wonderful thing.

It would depend on a) the SO and b) the person telling me. If the source was credible and had my best interest at heart, I'd investigate. I'm a pretty good detective. If the SO were? He'd be single. If it looked like bull, I'd believe the SO.

I would consider who it was giving me this information, and ask them why they felt the need to tell me. Then, I would talk to my SO about it, and go from there.

I would ask if she were doing it for 20 Billion dollars

Yeah me too!!!! lol
Does anyone wanna pay my husband 20 billion dollars to sleep with them? For 20 billion I will make him do it!! I am the boss!!! lol

I'll give you....*looks around* ....an exercise machine!

I already have one too many of those in my living room.

My husband is hot and good in bed any takers?

I have this cool stamp collection?

Is it worth anything.

I dunno....I paid a buttload of money for all those stamps...I have no idea how much they are worth
*laughs*

I would believe my SO. We have a completely open, trusting relationship, and he wouldn't do anything to hurt me. It's true--women do hit on him a lot, because he's absolutely gorgeous...but he once told me that only I could keep him completely satisfied.

I have no SO.

I would laugh it off and tell hubby what the person said, then we'd probably go make the persons life miserable for a while. I wouldn't believe the person who said it. I would also question motives for telling me that.

I'd love to have a threesome with my S.O.!
