Relationships and Cheating – Is This Normal
Have you had more than one relationship where your partner cheated on you? Does this seem normal to you? Do you accept cheating as a part of your relationship, both now and in the past? Unfortunately, many people are conditioned to think that being unfaithful is typical of every relationship. Guess what? Relationships and cheating do not go together like peanut butter and jelly! You have a warped view of how a couple should act.
Now why would you or someone else consider cheating an accepted part of any relationship? Many experts feel it is the result of your past experiences. Somewhere along the line you have learned to “attract” partners who don’t respect you and are prone to cheating. If you continue to become involved in bad relationships, you need to take an honest look at yourself. Are you repeating the same bad habits and behavior so you settle for someone who can’t commit to you by being faithful?
This is WRONG!
Infidelity should NEVER be an accepted part of a relationship – EVER
You deserve better and a good therapist can help you see the causes of yourself destructive behavior. You will need courage and commitment to find the root of your problem. But, with effort and your councilor’s support, you’ll discover that you don’t have to settle for an abusive relationship. You should be able to trust and count on your lover. And it should be a given for you to be respected and loved – period.
Examining a good relationship from your past could help you understand that you deserve better. Learn to expect the qualities of that partner who respected and treated you well. Perhaps, you might want to get your ex back and share a new relationship together. Or you could discover someone with the same qualities.
Don’t limit yourself. Your possibilities are endless.
So it doesn’t matter who you are or how many abusive and cheating partners you’ve had. Your cycle of relationships and cheating can be broken. You can enjoy a fantastic, loving relationship built on trust and respect. After all, YOU deserve it!
