how does a pisces justify cheating on their SO?

This topic was created in the Pisces forum by Diora_Capri on Saturday, February 22, 2014 and has 20 replies.

An older pisces man approached me awhile back and after dating for about a month, it came into passing that hes already married. The information was prompted by me one day, it was not volunteered when we first met.
As soon as I knew, I wanted out. He persisted and insisted on it being okay. I kept asking him how can it be okay? He justified it by reasoning that his wife is not around for half the time. He wanted (and still does want) to have an exclusive relationship with me; he showed me off to his friends when we met up with them sometimes and got jealous when we got a bit too friendly with each other.
After all that, I had to shut him off completely- no texts, calls, dates. went cold turkey. extremely difficult, what with my venus in aquarius and him pestering me.
I guess Im still unsatisfied by the recent events and I need to learn to let him go mentally, emotionally, like I have physically. As a pisces or individual, how would you justify cheating, if you would? I dont get this guy and Im mad at myself for falling for someone unattainable by moral standards.
Sorry for going on a bit of a rant there..smile

.... which means, you have NOT let him go mentally and emotionally.
So, how do Capricorns justify emotionally and mentally cheating with a married man?

P, I dont because I disagree with cheating, which is why as soon as I knew, I stopped the relationship and everything that comes with it. THe process of letting him go mentally and emotionally, Im sure you know, wont be easy and quick but its my weight to bear, I am doing it, I want to do it.
the point of this thread is to understand as in, I just cant understand why hed think its okay and after reading about some pisces's tendency to cheat (I am not saying all of them or just pisces or just men but this is specific to my context), I thought Id ask for your opinions, is all. Dont need to get snappy..

I don't know, if I'm being honest I have seen my best friend - a Pisces - use the same out of sight, out of mind reasoning too. I never quite knew what arrangements he had with his girlfriends of the time though. I just know when he found out one of them had cheated on him, he was devastated.


the double standards thing...sneaky fishes!smile

I'm sorry this happened to you. It's amazing how many men out there are just like this one. It's not related to astrology. It's related to selfishness and poor character.
In my experience, married/attached men who cheat are MORE prone to jealousy of an unattached partner (or even someone they covet as a potential partner). Why? Because they know to some extent they can't "secure" the unattached partner (via marriage or other similar committment). If they're cheaters themselves, they also assume others cheat.

Leave the bass-ackwards shaming aspect out of it. The shame really belongs to married people (men or women) who don't honor their committments. Like any other relationship ending, it takes time to get used to not being someone's partner/friend.
shit happens, especially in rio de janeiro I presume
You need an explanation?

Me, no, I cant imagine why I would. For one, before I knew he was married, I thought the chemistry was just awesome and I enjoyed being in his company, whether with friends or alone. For another, because generally in dating, I like to focus my energy on my partner, its practical and convenient. I can imagine it must not feel very good, what with the juggling and the lying, the betrayal of trust and further its like the bigger they come, the harder they fall kinda thing, youd think you had it all figured out and then all hell breaks loose haha!
Where do you stand on that? Would you personally feel okay with cheating?
I guess this pisces man and I are just not meant to be.
Thanks for all the positive support you guys!

Yes, I agree..and perhaps poor judgement of character from me at the beginning too..didnt occur to me to look for a wedding ring earlier on, u know?smile Thanks for the advice about attached men being prone to jealousy - I will keep this in mind in the future. It was ridiculous because he would accuse me of not wanting to spend time with him, wanting to spend more time with my friends (whom he automatically assumed were guys) than with him etc..now that I think about it..what a roller coaster ride of emotions!
..and I had him pegged as the one! I can now see the good side of this happening to me. All thanks to you guys!!

This has nothing to do with his being a Pisces, and everything to do with his being a cad.


as a frequent visitor on this site, I have always liked your straightforwardness and no-nonsense response, no matter how hurtful. Thank you!

Are attached men really prone to jealousy?
That seems like very bad new for all the people who love their partners to be "possessive" and fly off the handle at the drop of a hat.


I said attached men who cheat are more prone to jealousy (of the unattached partner).
I once dated a man. We were exclusive, but not married. He cheated with a mutual friend. Lovely drama *sarcastic smile*. After a heated breakup, we reconciled briefly. I was younger and not "ready" to give up on him.
It was sheer hell. He NEVER trusted me and CONSTANTLY suspected me of infidelity. To "get back" at him, I guess. Then he started really pushing for us to get married. Clearly he felt that marriage would soothe his insecurities about ME related to HIS behavior.
Cheaters assume everybody else cheats, too.

can one really love their partners when they act possessive? I remember a Sag ex who behaved like that when he thought my guy friends would come on to me or just to show people that we were an item. Got tired of that act real quick and I left after 3 months..that was back in high school lol! none of that jazz for this cap! Having said that, I always appreciated it when they showed a bit of jealousy though, by telling me in a calm way how they felt and what they expected from now on, which can be so sexy - turns me to butter..but act superpossessive when you dont even think about putting a ring on this finger, you can kiss my backside Winking

You can believe he wasn't exactly displaying it blatantly for your perusal. Winking

Oh yeah. A married man who pursued me went to ridiculous lengths to try and isolate me and separate me from other people and opportunities to meet other people. If you're getting to know a guy and he is unreasonably jealous of your personal life, look out. Something's not legitimate with the relationship.

This shit again. I'm going to start counting these threads to get the trend of the Pisces and cheating phenomenon. This is getting tiresome. Nothing against you OP, but if I had a dildo for every thread that get created about cheating I'd need to drill new holes in my body to accommodate them.


Lol, none taken MissFisk, but do send some of those dildos my way, will ya?Winking

Wow...I would've given anything to hear the thoughts of the friends who got to meet the side piece.
Any woman who dates a guy and screws him within a month without checking him out first, OR EVEN ASKING if the guy is with another woman makes me scratch my head. I just don't get it. I also do not sympathize at all.

Like I said...I don't understand and cannot fathom how some women can jump in before asking or doing their homework. Guys like this know there are women who don't ask and I guess get away with it.

You "guess"? Confused
Instead of focusing your energy on ANYONE, check them out next time. No guess work ever when you do that.
