Bending shouldn't have much impact if any at all on staying in tune. If it does, then you need to make a few changes in your guitar. Inexpensive first: change your strings. I only use DR handmade strings for both acoustic and electric, and that is all I will ever use. I've tried at least ten other namebrand and at least 30 different types and gauges, and DR seems to last longer, have a brighter sound, and stay in tune. They are not supposed to be stretched when you put new ones on, so follow the directions on the back of the box. DR strings are about $8. If you're still going out of tune after bending, you should probably inspect your tuning pegs. I love Grover tuning pegs, and I've had the best luck with them. They will run anywhere from $50 to $100 for six, depending on where you buy them. Also, if you're getting a lot of fret noise, you may need to have your truss rod adjusted, and perhaps a new bridge pin and nut put in place. A good guitar tech should only charge you about $25 for this. Good luck.
