Ovr,

I'm glad you have not cheated again since that previous incident, but I tend to agree with Steve and LH on this one. Of course, there are exceptions. From my personal experience there are generally two types of men: men who would never cheat and men who are habitual cheaters. I have many friends who have never cheated, and I have several friends who are habitual cheaters. I only know one person who cheated once, deeply regretted it, and has not cheated since. I'm not saying my word is truth, but it is my experience. I do think it's similar to alcoholism in the sense that once you cross that bridge, you better always be cognizant of not putting yourself in the position to cheat (or drink). One example is having a rule not to have dinner/drinks alone with a female co-worker--no matter the circumstances.
