I've always said, if you're gonna cheat, then please just break up.

Having sex with other people is not the problem... lying is.

If you're cheating, you're lying.

There is no excuse, it's just selfish behavior.

But people sure can get creative with their reasons.

So this should be good...


Redditor Shinfekta wanted to break down all the reasons people may have to step out on a partner.

So they asked:

"What’s the worst excuse for cheating?"

I mean... go ahead... try and explain. This should be as good as the dog ate my homework.

"A bit late to recognize that huh? What an ass, sorry you had to go through that."

Oh Lord...

"I’ll never forget my first semester in college I met a girl in psychology 101 that shared with the whole class that her boyfriend cheated on her. She said she was going to forgive him because his reason for cheating was because he had never slept with a black girl before and wanted to know what it was like."

Nasty

"Came home early from work to my last EX in bed with another gu 'I wasn’t trying to hurt you I didn’t think you would find out I came home early because I spilled a frier on my leg and she ignored my call for a ride because she was busy being f**ked. I’m still mad when I think about it."

"'She's your twin... does it really count as cheating?'"

"I dated a girl with an identical twin. One night I came up behind her, wrapped my arms around her, and planted a gentle kiss on her neck. Normally she liked that a lot, but this time she said, 'What the f**k are you doing?' It was her twin. So embarrassed lol. Luckily they both saw the funny side because it's happened before."

Ouch

"I deserved to have sex with a hot guy. It was tough to hear. I didn't think I looked that bad. But it messed with my self-image pretty badly. I had problems with body dysmorphia before I even met her. But between that and a few other comments she made, it came back pretty hard. Most days I do pretty well now though."

Phil it UP!

"One that I heard from a former marriage counselor was a woman who claimed her husband was so affectionate, hard-working, and considerate, she developed an inferiority complex and dealt with it by cheating."

Oldspice0493

"I saw something like that on Dr Phil. This woman was saying how her partner doted on her, did all the dishes, did everything for her. It was disgusting to her how much he loved her, so she felt the need to cheat on him."

Trump Slammed After Seemingly Believing Patently False Post From Satirical Website About Obama

President Donald Trump was called out after he shared an article headline about former President Barack Obama—without realizing it came from a satirical news site published nearly nine months earlier.

The post came from the Dunning-Kruger Times, a satirical website, claiming that Obama is making millions in "royalties" from Affordable Care Act (ACA) subsidies. The piece from the site makes the specific false claim that the advisory Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) had stopped paying Obama $2.6 million a year in "royalties associated with Obamacare."

Maya Hawke Just Revealed Mom Uma Thurman's Shady 'Advice' About Working With Quentin Tarantino

When it comes to Hollywood’s weirdest recurring obsessions, Quentin Tarantino’s foot fetish might be the one thing more predictable than his love of blood splatter and trunk shots.

For decades, the director has been on a cinematic crusade to make sure America never forgets what women’s feet look like—preferably dirty, dangling out of a car window, or wriggling in 70mm glory.

Trump's Bonkers Response To MAGA Voter Begging Him To Lower Grocery Prices Is Peak Trump

President Donald Trump was criticized for dismissing the concerns of a MAGA voter who begged him to fulfill his campaign promise to lower the price of groceries, instead giving an incoherent response that stings all the more as Americans continue to grapple with the affordability crisis.

Trump sat down for an interview with Fox News anchor Bret Baier, who shared a message from Regina Foley, a retired North Carolina Trump supporter who "voted for you three different times, but she is not happy about how her prices have not come down, that she sees."
