Confessions Of A Former Cheater! Signs Men Give Before They CHEAT & Women Miss-Laterras R. Whitfield

[@Choosingtoelevate]

I’m not a fan of when people say men are physical creatures. Woman are too. It’s called integrity, discipline, consideration. I don’t think it has to do with gender. I do think society gives men an excuse to indulge sexually

[@blackmadonna6024]

So true. I often find that the concept of “biological wiring” is used as a cop-out of responsibility for men

[@Sweetdreamz313]

Yes we women look for certain features as well it’s just we’re taught to have sexual control over ourselves because it’s not praised I don’t want a raggedy looking man.. even if he’s rich I do to an extent want someone I am physically attracted to.

[@eesynopsis7393]

There are nuances woven into this concept. Women can be physical, but not at the **extent** that men are (generally speaking, variations and exceptions to the rule exist). A quote I really love: "Men love with their eyes, women love with their ears" It doesn't mean women can't also appreciate the physical, it means that the way in which we experience the physical differs. That difference matters! It deserves acknowledgment, because it's going to change the dynamic of the relationship.

[@UpdatedView]

As a married man, I hate to be the bearer of bad news. Everyone isn’t cut out for marriage regardless of gender. It takes an exceptional person to get married and remain successfully married. The marriage and divorce rate numbers are accurate and it takes a special person to indefinitely pair-bond with another person. I pray for the best outcome for everyone. Honestly, there are some great people out there, but they are not great for marriage. God bless 🙏🏾

[@bee-qc3cd]

💯 agree!

[@SyvilleJosephine]

I love what you said. However I don't think it takes an exceptional person as much as it takes a willing person. Married people have to be willing to sacrifice, to honor, to submit...etc. When there is no longer a willingness that's when the door opens for just about anything to happen, especially cheating. I whole heartedly agree that marriage isn't for everyone. It especially isn't for people who feel that their perfect and won't make any horrific choices ever. Marriage is making yourself exceptionally vulnerable to 1 person on every level. That's one of the most difficult yet beautiful things that anyone can experience. I by no means condone cheating or any other behaviors that could potentially ruin a marriage.

I think his wife didn’t desire him sexually because of his poor character and lack of intimacy i.e ignoring her needs and prioritizing his own, but he got offended and resentful instead of trying to find out why she didn’t desire him and fix it so that they could have a great sex life. Seems like she gave up on him because of something he’s not telling. He wanted to hurt his wife because he felt neglected and he knew the other woman would tell her again. He knew what he was doing. It was calculated. If he wanted to divorce with grace, he should have divorced without cheating. He sounds very dependent on women for fulfillment and purpose.

Speak about your boundaries and what you are expecting. Going over to your exes home alone is never a good idea. Billy Graham wouldn't get in an elevator alone with a woman. These guys are so pampered by the women themselves and think they're prettier than the woman. They can get a great girl and still have no morals or boundaries and sleep with someone else. Then, gaslight you as if it's your fault. There are men around the world who just want a good wife. I would start educating yourself about them post haste... because the pickings are few.

I was with him until I heard his contradiction about his wife not fighting for the marriage because she never fully opened herself to him. Earlier on, he mentioned how being a husband is the head of the home so isn’t he to blame for the wife never fully opening up? How do you expect your wife to fully open up to you when you cheated on her prior to your marriage? As the husband and the head, how did he lead with vulnerability and trust that made it easier for his wife to truly be vulnerable with him? His wife was smart to never have fully open up to him. Men like him can destroy women.

100%! In my opinion, I believe he's actually continuing to harm women with this interview. The amount of people who have said thank you for his perspective is beyond crazy to me! I can understand some of his perspectives but (to me) the amount of shift blaming he does is not okay. It's like another way to manipulate women into thinking they're the problem when their man cheats. Also, it seems like another form of trying to get women to sympathize with a broken male perspective. Which, to me, may keep women stuck in a compassion-harm cycle.

This is absolutely true. The patterns are deeply engrained. Humans are usually very undisciplined and are creatures of habit. Deeply engrained good habits, habits of good character, discipline, integrity are so incredibly precious and valuable. But in a society that only values quick sexual transactions, people are not developing the right bricks for building any kind of relationship. They are only building houses of straw. The first breeze will come and blow the house down and they looking baffled as to why that happened. Upgrade your building materials. That will cost you something. Then make sure the person you want to build with, will not tear the house down. This requires a lot of slowing down in regard to intimate relationships. My opinion of course. 🙏🏽

He had a lacks of confidence and having other women flirting with him made him feel good about himself. He was very handsom and intelligent but he felt like I was more beautiful and more intelligent than he was.

I've been there but not married. Just 6 years wasted. I don't think he thought I was better looking than him because he was bodybuilding when we met and I was losing weight but still chubby. However it was like everyone I found out about has less interest in him than me and less of something else I have without having more "things". It always would be they made him feel desired with novelty, they made him feel needed with objective power disparity, they didn't pay him attention so they couldn't catch he wasn't the man he wanted to be know as. Crazy thing, he could have been happier and everything he was pretending to be but he would rather lie, cheat, stress, underachieve based on his goals not mine, etc. He used sex as a control mechanism and a litmus test for what type of woman they will be: a safe tool or a risky plaything. Neither are valuable positions but both are needed to plaster over issues he will not handle and that will continue to undermine him. Anyone like that needs therapy and alone romantically. Although my ex lied to everyone even his family but again if they paid him mind they could catch inconsistencies and also cries for help because that's what he's looking for: love and attention from them beyond the surface.

Now I always test a man by asking questions and won’t get into a relationship with him if he has this mentality.

There are many different signs. These include spending time on phone that was not spent previously, withholding sex from you, withdrawing in communication with you, agitation or anger over Petty stuff or making up situations to get angry or agitated over, lying, being secretive in any way, randomly spending more time caring for and pampering oneself such as putting on makeup or wearing cologne or coloring hair etc. Any type of changed behavior that is not aimed at pleasing or benefiting your relationship. With all of that though, follow your gut. your gut is telling you that something isn't right and it's telling you that this could or is happening, therefore listen to it. Just Free yourself from all of it! Run and don't look back. Go 100% no contact. The mental and emotional abuse is not okay at all! Do not bring anything up to her. Don't try to rationalize or have a conversation about anything. Don't let her know that you know she's in narcissist. All of that can cause a narcissistic rage. If you have not yet witnessed one of those just trust me that you don't want to! A narcissistic rage is beyond any rage I have ever seen or witnessed in my entire life. I am an army combat veteran and served front lines for a year and afghanistan. I have abuse going back from as long as I can remember, the first time in my personal memory is 2 years old. With everything I have been involved in, and my rape, other sexual abuse, their physical abuse, etc in narcissistic rage is by far the worst! If you need to contact your local police department and start a new contact order. No one can protect you like you can! free yourself from it all and move forward in your life. The minute you run and go no contact is the minute your life begins again. If need be seek out professional help. Therapy is the best thing I did for myself. The best gift I gave to me! The abuse is so deep and overwhelming that having a professional guide you through the steps of the healing process is extremely beneficial! Just remember, there is great strength in asking for help. There is great lack and strength or no strength at all in putting on a mask and hiding behind the opinions of society and pretending that you are okay! As human beings we all witness A Time In our lives where we are not okay! Those that heal, move past, and move forward, and have a brighter future are those who ask for help and do the work that is needed through the help! I'm so sorry you are going through this and I wish you the very best! Good luck! Always remember that you are stronger than you believe you are, you are worthy and deserving of better and always, and you are enough just the way you are and who you are today! Take this time for you! Get yourself again. Fix that meal that you're all time favorite, rent that movie you've been wanting to see, have a guys night out with your best friends, remodel a room in your home, go purchase that item you've been wanting to for so long, just do for yourself! Self-acceptance, self-love, and being able to forgive yourself is far more important than what anyone else can give to you! Believe in who you are! You deserve nothing less than that!

I would have no respect for a man who cheats and so love would be difficult to be had with a man like that. A man like that would be showing me he is not worthy of me, I would thank him for showing me who he is and move on. I find it baffling that some women stay with men that cheat. They are in fact teaching these men that they will settle for so little, that it makes no difference how they are treated. And as he admitted that if his wife cheated on him, he wouldn't be as understanding and yet he expected the wife to be forgiving towards him. How amazingly selfish. Great conversation Lisa.

[@teascobie6557]

42:23 "I'm glad I never fully gave myself to you because I would have been destroyed." His response to her saying this to him, tells us what she was dealing with. He blamed her for his cheating. He cheated before they were married so she never trusted him fully but still went along with the marriage knowing full well he didn't even like her...let alone love her. She was forgiving and giving him a chance. Had she cheated he would not have taken her back. She is absolutely right. Had she giving him her all she would be in an insane asylum, and he still would have divorced her because studies show when a woman gets sick most men don't stick around...

[@Regina.Clarke]

I can see how you’re saying this, and he could have been better with explaining it. I follow his podcast. The key he was saying is that they didn’t communicate about their needs. Their needs weren’t being met, so the cycle kept going. He lacked clarity and self awareness when he met her and also did hold to his needs when she showed she wasn’t that type. This is a problem many people go through even without cheating. I have been cheated on and it was a horrible experience because the narcissist blamed me for everything when I knew nothing. This example is nowhere near that energy. He has taken accountability but TOTALLY could have been better explaining it in that section which I agree with.

That marriage was doomed from the beginning because God didn't put them together. They put themselves together and sound like they married out of convenience.

@@Regina.Clarke When someone words their accountability as blaming another person for their actions, that isn't being accountable.

[@empowermentworshipcenter2132]

Yes, exactly

[@CG-wr4no]

I think the same thing however the way you worded that I'm seeing it at another vantage point. As much as i hate to say this I believe a person is not trustworthy unless they can truly love themselves (healthy self-esteem, self-acceptance, and most importantly self- worth) because if not the forward flow of energy will reverse and the energy will become "perverse" and without the self worth and self confidence in overcoming emotions and inner turmoil it will now become very dysfunctional because the person either isnt able to (doesn't know how, doesn't have enough self awareness, and lacks integrity) or isnt willing to (not worth the effort) it will create many cracks in the foundation, in the walls and the pressure will come out in all sorts of ways. Someone with low self worth will sabotage themselves and their partner. Interesting.. An important part is he went from guilt and shame and it flipped to anger and pride. That was the moment it all changed in this specific scenerio. He didn't deal with the guit and shame and how he got there in the first place (important talks to be had in the relationship) and once she didn't fulfill the story he had in his mind thinking he was going to get scolded (mother issue? Not sure) and she was understanding and considerate about the shower thing. He in an instant flipped to anger/resentment/ rightousness/pride. That IS significant. Undealt shame turns to anger. So even though he no longer had a reason to be ashamed since he didn't process it it turned to anger. And I think also he was angry because the very things he didn't talk to her about that then influenced his decision to do the ky shower he felt unheard and uncared for (similar to how woman can be when we think men should already know whats on our mind so we dont have to say it out loud.) I think he was indignant about her reaction.. as if he thought she was downgrading his inner hostility he was building up towards her that she didn't even know about because he never addressed it. This goes to show how vital being able to talk about things with fair play (there should be communication rules to talking about hot topics so its not a battle field) and self-worth and being able to successfully process uncomfortable emotions is. *Deep sigh*

[@lademoiselleketoret6958]

Of course she felt this way. He literally said after he cheated with that woman, as he left her house, he felt like his marriage TORE APART. And you know what?! It did! He divorced her as soon as he cheated with this woman AFTER MARRIAGE. When you cheat on someone that you are married to, YOU HAVE DIVORCED THEM, because you BROKE THE VOW. Not just to the other person,but you broke the vow you made to GOD. Sometimes I think the resistance of the other partner is not always from THEM. But is from GOD. Because you broke your VOW to Him. There is power in vows and oaths. The Bible says, “do not make a vow IN HASTE”. There are huge consequences in the spiritual realm when you break a vow. That includes breaking promises. So, for men to say they are only in the physical realm, mayday! You are ripe for destruction because your whole spiritual reality is full of darkness and demons when you only focus on the physical realm! You are SPIRIT and ONLY have a body that houses your SPIRIT. If you are DEAD in your spirit, mayday! Breaking vows and oaths will put a label on you in the spirit realm that you are not a person of your word, nor a person of integrity. You lose WEIGHT in the spirit realm. You cheapen yourself. Your word is NOT your bond. Then ppl wonder why ppl don’t trust them. In regard to him cheating before marriage, well his heart was DIVIDED. He talked a lot about his wife not giving him her all, but he has all these soul ties to other women so, he is the one who is really fractured as a person. He has infused his sperm into too many gardens and he is divided in his soul. He can’t give her his all because his percentages are all wrapped up in other women that he doesn’t care about. He may not care about THEM, but there is a yoke there with these other women. A cord between them. This is why just him fantasizing about this other woman “he doesn’t care about” conjured her up in his life! He was making phone calls in the spirit. She probably wasn’t even thinking about him, but he put all his focus and intention on her and then “suddenly” she shows up. Truth is, he never ended that relationship with her and his soul was still KNIT to hers. Even though he did care about her.Doesn’t matter, she has a claim on his soul. His frustration is with himself but it is easy for a man to blame. Remember Adam… all mad at God because of “the WOMAN you gave me.” Really? The woman at least comes clean immediately and says, “I was deceived(I got tricked) this damn snake… but yes, I did eat of the tree.” The man is all pissed off at God. Which is why God had asked him initially, “bruh, where are you?” Because God could see clearly, “you don’t even know what you have done or where you are at. Your moral compass is BROKEN.” If this guy had gotten delivered from the soul ties he had for all those other women, maybe he and his wife could have made it, but he had too many women in their marital bed, and a woman can feel that. She knew she wasn’t the only one in the marriage and perhaps she couldn’t give him 100 percent of herself is because there were too many other percentages in their marriage and there was only room enough for her 75 percent. These are realities.🙏🏽

This is what happens when men choose to prioritize quantity. Too many partners and lots of experiences mean nothing when it comes to quality of intimacy with one.

[@lp9716]

@jenniferbranch9047 thank you!! Plus I'm not for one moment buying the "she meant nothing to me" line. It may not have been love, but she meant something that you cheated with her even prior to marriage. I would hate being his ex wife as well as the ex side chick.

This video is so powerful in so many different aspect. When he spoke about what the word husband means thats when I felt “EVERYONE” needs to hear this before marriage after during etc. even what he says about sex as a drug, her not communicating.

I can say that as a man and married, that I've never cheated, but I've been cheated on.

[@tora6548]

Oh my goodness. I'm so sorry that it happened to you. I am woman who has also never cheated but my husband of 14yrs has. Today I found a pair of panties, last Saturday was makeup and lipstick on his jack. I really hurts so bad.

​@@tora6548I know it hurts. I'm sorry. Have you talked to him about it?

[@joanofarcxxi]

😮 If a man cheated on you, do not forgive him. If he really loved and valued you he never would betray you. Cheating is the ultimate violation of your boundaries, dignity, and self respect. Cheating is bad character. He broke your agreement and tore your heart out. Do not forgive. Do not. He made his choice. Now let him deal with the consequences. Yes, it's hard, but if you stay with him he will continue to make you suffer. You must keep your safety, dignity, honor, and value as a woman. You heard what this narcissist said. According to him, using women to satisfy his ego and entitlement meant nothing. He just cared about his own needs. Did he ever consider her needs? He had cheated before. Red flag! A guy like this is NOT a keeper.

[@glendorahorton9605]

You must forgive him if you are a Christian! You don't have to reconcile yet you must forgive.

[@joanofarcxxi]

@@glendorahorton9605 I am not God, let God forgive. You move on quickly and in time you can forgive if God puts it in your heart to do so. I have learned in my life's journey that when we immediately cut people out of our lives for abusing us, karma takes care of it and we find peace and freedom surprisingly well. It's totally natural and effective to be angry and say "you shall not pass!!!". That anger is what gives the power and the courage to stay clear from fake promises and further harm.

You crazy …!…that’s pride right there….who are you ..or any woman to feel as if if a man is weak or not perfect you gotta leave him…that’s the princess syndrome and is fuelled by narcissism …”I have to have the perfect man cos I’m so wonderful”..!!! Also I think people are way to sexualised ..especially in America…it’s a bondage

[@livingwithdrdenisej]

If you fail to forgive you give the person who wronged you tremendous power over you. If you fail to forgive, you will never heal and this will prevent you from having a successful relationship in the future with anyone else. Forgiveness is not weakness but strength.

[@Sheshe661972]

I really do appreciate this man's transparency, and I'm grateful for him doing the work to change his ways (trauma issues).

[@AffectionateSeaOtter]

In between the lines he's still blaming his wife though for not meeting 'his' needs. And then he glazes all that and dusts powdered sugar and you are ready to eat the donut. Please read in between the lines. The woman blaming still lives inside him. That is NOT true self-accountability. If a serial rap!st came and said on YT he's really sorry for all the r@pes but the victims tantalized him with their provocative clothing and made it impossible to resist and maybe he should had an open discussion with them about 'his' needs, would you eat the same donut that quickly?

[@grumpyschnauzer]

This was exactly my Ex-husband… emphasis on EX. He had no idea what intimacy and connection meant and I was scrambling to figure this all out to avoid our relationship ending… then realized he wasn’t. Exactly every single experience he mentions happened in my relationship.

[@SF-wc1wx]

I wonder how does his ex-wife feel about him sharing the things that happened during their marriage? Is that even more traumatic for her?

[@Heyu7her3]

She tells him she's okay with it, but she doesn't have a great history of being in-tune with herself...

Something was still missing here for me. I couldn’t push past him and how he showed up. My ears, which are usually open and objective just couldn’t stomach “listening” to this guy.

[@akstylez_ak5037]

She probably feels humiliated. I know I would have. Because this is very personal. Women don’t support other women in situations like this. They are the reason many woman suffer in silence because of the same and blame other women make them feel. It’s like a crab in a barrel situation.

Cheating is for people who have no self discipline, integrity and lack of discipline. I was once accused of cheating and felt so disrespected. I left him! I was very annoyed and upset but he thought was acting defensive. I would rather leave a person than to cheat.

I was accused of cheating by a man, I was shocked. 1. I would never cheat. 2. What does he think of me then? 3. Is he cheating and that’s why his mind when there?!

He likely accused you because that is what he was doing.

Excellent conversation. Appreciate his 100% honesty and transparency. Being in a relationship involves so many elements to truly have a deep connection. Being together is only the surface level. There is sooooo much deeper stuff that each person needs to be connected with the other. Trust, honesty, safety, security, respect, vulnerability, transparency, integrity, etc. are absolutely pertinent. Each person must work on their own self, their Self Love, in order to bring it to the table....so a healthy relationship can grow. Appreciate this podcast! Thank you. ❤

[@vashtikelly6837]

DEPENDS ON HOW YOU SEE IT...I AM A DANCER AND TRUST ME WHEN I SAY THE MEN SHOW THIER TRUE NATURE AND WHO THEY REALLY ARE WITH US... THE REASON HE SAID 'SAFE PLACE' IS BECUZ WE ARE ALREADY NAKED AND HE CAN PICK THE WOMAN THAT HE PHYSICALLY DESIRES WITHOUT TRYING TO GET TO KNOW THE DANCER AND SNEAK AROUND WITH HER..HE CAN JUST GO TO THE CLUB, SIT DOWN AND TALK TO HER, AND IF SHE'S A CERTAIN TYPE AND HIS MONEY IS RIGHT, THEN HE CAN SEE HER AFTERWARDS FOR PLEASURE...THEN HE GOES HOME AND HIS WIFE IS NONE THE WISER...

[@staciacrick3373]

What’s with all caps? Anyway, that is easy because it’s not a reciprocal relationship and he is in a power position because he is paying for a service, which takes away true vulnerability. Emotional intimacy is about being vulnerable along with reciprocation, and expectations, not a feeling of superiority and power.

I really like the show though it was seven months ago. Just found your station. I really enjoy your conversations. I’m at a point in my life where I’m off the roller coaster and I’m in a labyrinth/maze … as an older woman almost 70 but I get mistaken for in my 50s because of my energetic approach to life. Working on living in the moment living in trying to not get in a situation people misunderstand. I like to help people, but I find that people misunderstand my kindness as a situation to take advantage of. I’ve had to walk away from so many people in my life over the years and most recently my family on the death of my father. That’s why I’m no longer on the roller coaster. I’m in that maze and it must say it’s amazing That my life is changing but I also find it hard to fit into the patterns of life because I no longer need anything and I don’t want my wants to be misconstrued. I need people or want people know I can walk away I don’t need anything that people are offering that is negative or Abusive or someone using you for their own outcome. Very hard, though as a nurturing caretaker to walk away from a lot of situations like that trying to change the results without changing who I am the authentic person new boundaries new guidelines I think too many women are living with old tools and old strategies. There’s a need for new ways to get from .8 point B and get the results you want again thank you for yourinterview with I’m finding them extremely informational and rewarding on my current path or journey of life.

Reading these comments, let me know that people only hear what they want to hear. All the "He had me at" or "not he have the nerves to say"... He said all he said and explained why he felt like that, why he cheated. And came back and took accountability on his actions... We have to understand he was young and he did things he thought was ok.. Now, as a real man, he knows what to do differently with the next wife... Stop trying to make him look like he's still on some BS.. This man spoke well and made good sense of everything.. It'S CALLED GROWTH..
