How can a man make such passionate love to a woman and then go and cheat?

Most men love women, and thank God, most men are loyal and stick with one woman. It's obvious men don't think like women. Women are more prone to be faithful and truly in love, while men can be fickle and enjoy the attention of other women. He thinks he's a great lover and has something to prove to himself by cheating several times. Men (and some women) like to be "stroked" and complimented and while most of us mature and get over this some don't. I'd kick this guy to the curb. He's old leather .... send his spurs flying out the door after him and let's hope they stick where the sun don't shine! Marcy It's about stroking a man's ego...and the more strokes he gets, the bigger he his (no pun intended). It's been a year and a half since my fiance now husband cheated and I constantly ask him this same question. He can never quite give me an answer other than he said he was weak. I believe women are stronger than mean when it comes to cheating. Women say no, men say more.... Answer Simply put, many men separate passionate sex and committed love.

Do you think getting engaged at 23 is appropriate?

Yes, usually it's just fine, but these are things you must think of.

Are you continuing your education (going to College)

Do you have a good job or are you planning to go to college in order to get a better job.

Are you willing to take the responsibilities of looking after a mate (that means man/woman).

Are you willing to give up going out with your friends all the time and staying home a little more often to save money towards a house and also think of possibly having children in the future.

Are you willing to spend the rest of your life with this person for better or worse.

If you can't say yes to most of these questions you are not ready to get married. Some people mature very quickly, while others may never mature anytime in their lives.

To be honest, more young people are waiting until they are in their late 20's to early 30's to get married. By then they have completed their education, have a good job and are ready for a relationship.

You know the person you are in love with and you know yourself, so only you can be honest enough to decide if this is what you want.

How do you get your ex-boyfriend back if he said he didn't want a steady relationship with you even though he loves you but said perhaps someday you will get back together?

He's made up his mind and he must have reasons he doesn't want to share and it may not have anything to do with you. The best thing you can do is start going out with friends and getting back into the dating circuit. This way if he realizes you aren't sitting around moping over him he may just have second thoughts and come back. If he does tell him you don't like playing games. Be your own person and NEVER lose your dignity over something like this. Love hurts, but, if you play it cool there is a possibility he could well come back. If he doesn't while you are dating you may just find that special someone that you'll fall in love with. Here's a better question: Why in the world would you want him back in the first place?! Honestly this guy is toying with your emotions! he doesn't love you at all. All he's doing is stringing you along and you're letting him. Let me tell you I've been there and done that too many times. I've learned the hard way that if a man treats you like that, he really doesn't love you at all. He's more considered about having that little piece on the side then what you are really feeling.My advice to you is, please move on from him. He's not worth the heartache. Don't let him string you along like a puppy. Be strong! Love and commitment go hand in hand. Prime example: I love my best friend. He is my world. I am committed to making sure that he's okay and that he always has someone to talk to. So its a bunch of BS what this guy is feeding you. Don't fall for his crap and find yourself someone better. Cuz while you're dwelling about this, he's probably out having a grand ol' time with different girls; not thinking twice about you. Be wise. Be strong. You deserve better.

Why do men give woman rings?
