Tripping

A few days ago I was listening to a radio show set in St. Louis, MO and the topic was "What would make you cheat?"  Now I was very intrigued to hear the responses to this question because a lot of people have different definitions of cheating.  One person said they would cheat if their significant other wasn't paying them any attention and another person said that they would cheat if they weren't getting sex when they wanted it.  In my mind I was thinking that these people would never manage if they were married.  I was 23 years old when I got married and I'm 24 years old now so I have been married for a little over a year.  Between taking care of our son and our different schedules, finding time where my husband and I can just be by ourselves is extremely hard.  In any relationship there will come a time when you will see something that you truly do not like about your significant other.  You can either accept this "flaw" or you can move on.  However, if you move on this cycle will just continue.  By this I mean that there is always going to be something you won't like about a person, but its really up to you to judge if this flaw is a deal breaker or not.  Now this doesn't mean break up with someone because they may be a little inconsiderate, or they don't want to spend ALL of their time with you.  I feel a lot of people especially in my age group are just breaking off relationships for frivolous reasons.  It it to be expected that your relationship will not be the same as it was in the beginning 5 years later.  Being in a relationship is hard work and even though you may love a person, sometimes that may not be enough.  You have to want the relationship to work and give it all you've got.  Ultimately, I turned off the radio show because it was getting on my nerves a bit because I just got the feeling that people really didn't understand want it means to be in a relationship. 

Now a little side note, I need to find ways to advertise my blog so I can get some readers!  Today maybe I will get back on social networking sites and post the link to my blog.  I want to hear from people and see what people would like for me to write about. 

What do you consider cheating?
