Redditors who have been cheated on, what was their (dumb,unbelievable, "I'm sorry,what?") reason for having cheated on you?

1. "His dick was huge and I wanted to see what it felt like"
   — Needs-More-Hands


2. "It was a guy I used to have a crush on." Cool. Thanks. That totally fixes my broken heart.

3. Her: "I was high as fuck on cocaine and you were at work, what was I supposed to do?!" Me: "Wait, what's this about cocaine?"

4. She worked with him. When I found out (by looking into why we exceeded our text messaging limits on our bill by $80, seeing it was all him, which prompted me to investigate further and start putting 2 & 2 together of other things that seemed “off”)...I confronted her and her excuse was “ you told me to ask him for workout advice, and one thing led to another”. My bad, I guess.

5. "You gave me the self confidence to ask him out!" (on valentines day no less)

6. She claimed that the "i can't wait to fuck you." "me too, baby" texts were lines from a movie they were quoting to each other.

7. My girlfriend was semi-long distance (close enough to drive to on weekends, but not during the week). When we got together, her best friend was a female FWB. She was very upfront about it before we got together, and I said "alright, that's cool". She decided, without asking me, to start hooking up with her FWB's boyfriend to "practice for me since we only saw each other on the weekends".

8. "Everyone in my family cheated and their SO forgave them because they loved him/her." Implying that I didn't love him enough to forgive him for cheating on me. When I found out he gave me chlamydia he told me he had it worse because he had it longer then me..... EDIT: He got chlamydia from screwing a stripper and knocking her up. He thought it was a good idea to fuck her without a condom and cum in her. She got pregnant, decided to keep it and promised him she wouldn't sue him for child support. Surprise surprise she did sue him for child support. His entire family knew and decided not to tell me to go to the doctors.

9. "My birth control pills messed up my head and it made me crazy!"
   — Trigger93






10. never got a reason. she ghosted me after 2 years. i guess it was easier for her than saying "i'm pregnant, it's not yours."

11. She told me I reminded her of her Grandpa. Wtf we were only 21 at the time. She never fully explained that one

12. I was a freshman, he was a senior. After 8 months he cheated on me with a girl who had just moved to town. His reason: "A higher power told me so." Mm, okay. 10 years later we are both in the Marine Corps and stationed on the same base. (note, I haven't seen him since we broke up in high school) I was new to the unit and he felt the need to tell literally everyone I worked with that "We are meant to be together, it was fate that put us together. I'll divorce my wife for her." Needless to say, I told my superiors and they kept his crazy-ass away from me.

13. He didn’t give a reason. He tried to still say “it’s not what it looks like, I would never do that to you,” after I saw a video of him clearly cheating on me with his “cousin.”

14. "It didn't count. We didn't have sex. I wasn't doing it to have a relationship with her, I was doing it to fool her and make her feel like an idiot." Yeah buddy that just makes you a sociopath in addition to being a cheater.

15. She was a part of a 3 some. “He didn’t fuck me, they only fingered me.”

16. "I did it out of spite, to hurt you." Less "haha what the fuck?" More "What. The. Fuck." :(
