Choice,a choice that destroys ppl and families. And changes the way a person looks at love. If you truly love someone dont do it,cause then it will be the biggest mistake of your life and if the person, gives you another chance, it will still be in the back of their mind.you might forgive but you don’t forget. If your not happy,just leave. It hurts much less

Definitely a choice!! If you really love someone, it’s not easy for you to cheat!! I know, I have been with my husband for 9 years and NEVER slept or kissed another man!!

It’s a choice. All actions are choices. You always have a choice in everything you do. Whether or not it was a good choice, it’s still something you choose to do.

It depends on the situation, really. Hell, some can mind control and manipulate people so well it seems like a choice, but it’s just a mistake. Others consciously do it, often for selfish reasons.

It shouldn’t even need to be a choice , if you want to cheat on someone your better off single and leach onto other single people , you don’t deserve to be happy you don’t deserve to be in a relationship with anybody. If you want to sneak behind someone’s back , start from the most littlest of things , it will smack you in the face in the end . As they say ONCE a cheat always a CHEAT. I’ve been cheated on in my past relationships , it messes with your head and rips out your heart ,… Read more »

Choice. No one is holding you at gun point and telling you to sleep with someone else. You’re consenting to lay down with someone who isn’t your significant other

Both once you make the choice you realize it was a mistake never cheat on the people who love you! Once a cheater always a cheater

Choice. Plain and simple. Instead of having the courage to face your partner and either let them go or try and work on things you made the choice to break the trust and be with someone else. I think it’s cowardly to hold on to one and lying while playing with others and definitely disrespectful.

a choice. Someone calling it a mistake is someone who is making excuses….which means it will happen again.

It’s a choice, it only becomes a ‘mistake’ when you get caught or confess!! There is NO excuse for cheating, if you are unhappy in a relationship end it, don’t disrespect your partner!!

Def a choice … you don’t just run into a persons genitals on accident … cheating is calculated. And I believe that there are two kinds of people in this world… those who cheat , and those who never have and never will. I’m in the never have category ??

Unless you are brain dead it is always a choice. No excuses. Pathetic people who cannot take responsibility for their actions play the “mistake” card. No morals.

when you decide to cheat, that is a choice that you made. when you realized it truly hurt someone and you feel bad, you realize it was a mistake.

Choice and then later on you figure out it was a mistake

Omg? let me just say this : cheating isn’t always kissing, touching, flirting. If you gotta delete text messages so your partner won’t see them, you’re already there.

And yes, cheating is a choice.

A mistake is getting an answer wrong on a test that you thought you had right……so yes it’s clearly a choice. Calling it a mistake is an excuse and insulting to the person who was cheated on.

Its a choice. Nobody accidentally has sex with somebody . Its a decision, you choose to do it or you choose to be faithful. Take responsibility.

It’s both. Definitely a mistake because its “misguided” and “wrong” by definition. And definitely a choice. You could have said no, but you didn’t.

You all are assuming cheating is defined by having a relationship with someone other than your significant other. There are many ways to cheat. You cheat your partner out of love by putting other things (hobbies, work) or people before them. You cheat your partner out of love by withholding affection, truth, etc…

Always always a choice. Nobody is forcing you to cheat.

They only say it was a mistake if they get caught.

Absolutely a choice, a conscious decision! You don’t accidently cheat! “Oh whoops, sorry. Didn’t realise I was cheating”. Cheating isn’t always physical either. If you’re having text or phone conversations you don’t want your partner to see because they’d “misunderstand”, that’s cheating. If you have to sneak to do it, lie to cover it up or delete it to avoid it being seen, you’re cheating….and not by mistake!
It’s one of the most soul destroying things to ever have happen to you.

A choice. We all know what we are doing when we decide to start chasing someone else behind our partners back. Starts off with innocent texting, then changes to flirting then sexting and swapping photos, secret phonecalls and then the sneaky meet-up and then the kissing and next minute your sleeping together while your poor partner doesn’t have a clue and never deserved any of this. How bout making the choice first to end your current relationship then go and have your fun and games, now that’s a thought!!

Obviously a choice because you know it’s wrong and you know exactly what you’re about to do. You’re making the decision to hurt your partner.. That’s not right by any means.

Definitely a choice. I have never understood why people cheat. You will always get caught. It’s stupid and pointless. If you are that unhappy in your relationship, then simply leave. It will cause a lot less hurt to your significant other in the long run.

It’s a choice definitely. You consciously look to replace what you’re not getting your current relationship & it’s selfish.
