Sorry State Of Affairs For Cheating Brits (Yahoo! News)
Almost half the British population has cheated on a partner, reveals a relationship survey. Some 47% of the 25 to 34-year-olds asked admitted to doing the dirty on their other half.And the report showed infidelity was a problem of those in long-term relationships as much as for those just embarking on one.
One fifth of those questioned said they had cheated on their current partner, with men the worst at 25% compared with 15% of women.
Of those 20%, a whopping 92% confessed to having strayed before.
Relate counsellor Paula Hall said: "I'm not surprised by the results. Within that age group, you're still deciding what you want from a relationship.
"Although you need to ask what sort of relationship are these people in? Many might be unfaithful because they're not in a committed relationship."
Pubs and clubs were cited as the most likely places for people to cheat, with 27% meeting someone else, while 26% got together with an ex-partner.
The ICM survey for BBC3 also showed that despite the cheating, 78% of women and 55% of men thought to do so was immoral.

I know most of you are below this age range but still;
Have you ever cheated on your (previous) other half?
Could you be tempted to or are you against such a thing?
Have you ever been cheated on before?
Would/Have you forgive your other half if he/she did?
I was a little suprised by this survey, I'm sure it's worst for the age range 18 to 25 but from 25 to 34 that's settling down, getting married and starting a family age (well atleast that's what I thought).
As expected Pubs and Clubs are the likliest places for cheating to happen and over 1/4 happen with an ex partner.
I personally wouldnt and haven't cheated on an ex. Well actually there was this one time with my first girlfriend, so I guess I have cheated. Though I wouldnt now. I haven't been cheated on as far as I am aware and no I don't think I would forgive her.
> Have you ever cheated on your (previous) other half?
No, not in a commited relationship. I've at times semi being with more than one person at a time, but at that point there was no exclusitivity.
> Could you be tempted to or are you against such a thing?
I am against cheating, but the reality is I am human and feasibly could be tempted.
> Have you ever been cheated on before?
Yes.
> Would/Have you forgive your other half if he/she did?
First time yes. Second time no. But it does depend on more than just if I was cheated on. There are a variety of factors that affect things. Life if I was absent for months at a time, if the relationship was breaking down etc etc.

Don't think so, bozo.

Not a hope in hell.
