No Fancy title for this one ;-) It is what it is LOL
My homie thought temptation would be a good topic to discuss. Specifically when doing a lot of traveling in a relationship. Is it hard to be faithful when youre always on the road encountering attractive people that your partner would probably never ever come across in life? Does traveling often without your partner leave room for some some serious #NOS #BOS action?? (in PC terms: a boy or girl on the side) How strong does a relationship have to be to withstand temptation while away from home?
I personally dont believe traveling has anything to do with being tempted and possibly cheating or just doing something you flat out have no business doing in a relationship. If youre tempted to cheat while on a trip, youre probably tempted to cheat right in your city and are probably already cheating ;-) lol Cheating is cheating is cheating and it dont matter where someone is, their will power dont just turnoff when they leave the state. It was already off! Might not have been acting on it, but they wanted to. The trip just gave them an excuse to act a fool. So this blog aint for ya'll! lol
For those who are actually faithful and tend to take a lot of trips away from their boo, temptation can be a huge issue. Especially if there is no trust. People cheat for many different reasons. Some of those being they think the other is cheating, their partner nags them and drives them to someone else, or they just dont have the balls to end their relationship. Some just cant get that thing they need from the one they love and they know exactly where to get it from without causing any friction in their relationship. Bim, Bam, thank you ma'am! But, for my good partners who want their relationship to work, they might just need to decipher if this is what they really want or not.
I learned a long time ago, just because you love someone doesnt mean you have to be together and just because you love someone doesnt mean you like them. A relationship cant work if you arent fully committed. And how can you be fully committed if youre always thinking of someone else or your mate is not satisfying you accordingly? It becomes a problem for both. You cant take your mate everywhere you go. So if youre taking a lot of trips you need to make sure the time you spend together is the best! Its up to the one always left at home to make sure their mate is happy. Make sure your mate is not wanting for anything so when theyre faced with temptation, unless theyre just an ass, there will be no need to deviate. If you really make an effort to communicate what's lacking and really make an effort to provide it, there really shouldnt be any problems.
If someone is always tempted and they have a really hard time not acting on it, they are just not in the relationship they should be in. It is very possible to be satisfied with one person, and if you cant, you arent relationship material. And there is nothing wrong with that! Just dont promise someone something you cant deliver. And if you have a mate thats always traveling, check your trust issues at the door. Dont accuse them of everything under the sun and they wont feel the need to do it. If youre gonna receive an attitude when you get home, you might as well have a good reason for it! ;-)
I havent seen one relationship with two faithful people in ages. I felt your topic today! Cheating definitely needed to be addressed!lol The women to men ratio in Atl has the game messed up!
ReplyDeleteI'll disagree with the anonymous comment. There is such thing as a faithful relationship. I believe that you don't hear about it because most people are so intrigued by drama and negative attitudes. It's something about about two people being in love and being faithful that bores the crap out of people so there's not much broadcasting. Don't give up people...monogamy does still exist!
