I have felt like cheating and that's when I know there's a problem with the relationship. When I'm totally into someone, even Sean Bean couldn't tempt me away (well, maybe..). No one else can compare to my partner at that time.
A couple of my friends cheat and they feel no real guilt about it. I posted a topic about one of these, as his gf doesn't like sex, but he still cares for her so stays with her, even though he does cheat from time to time out of sexual frustration. I don't think I could cheat without a great deal of guilt and that would take the fun out of the cheating, so they'd be no point doing it in the first place! But I don't think it necessarily makes you a bad person if you do cheat.
Personally I think there are different types of cheaters; ones who do it because they can, and I don't think they really change all that much, and those that are in bad relatonships and end up cheating out of frustration. I think these people don't necessarily carry on cheating in subsequent relationships, but they lack the backbone to leave the bad relationship in the first place. But we're human, make mistakes and can hurt other people unfortunately and all lessons in life help us grow.

I've never cheated, but I've also never had a relationship to last as long as three months. I once felt the urge to cheat on my boyfriend so bad that I just broke up with him and told him that I "just want to be friends". I know, the whole "lets just be friends" schtick is pretty lame. But it turned out that things with the Virgo that I left him for didn't even turn out as I had hoped...and the cycle continues. =P
Okay so now can I ask what is your perception of cheating???
My perception of cheating:
When a relationship has been fully established and both partners are fully aware of their boundaries and the guidelines that have been set regarding what they can or cannot do in a relationship. Therefore if any partner crosses those lines or boundaries, they are considered to be cheating.
This doesn't refer to just friends(or friends with benefits), or someone you consistently hang out and have a good time with. A relationship MUST be established and BOTH parties involved must be aware of their boundaries and consequences involved.
