Why are Women Foolish Enough to Fight over a Cheating Man???

Why do women jump on the other woman instead of jumping on the man's case? I can see giving a women a piece of your mind if she was a friend, relative, or someone else who KNEW that he was in a relationship, but if the other women REALLY DIDN'T KNOW, why jump on her? This does absolutely nothing but make the woman look stupid and is basically telling the man that, "Oh baby, I don't care that you cheated but I have no problem fighting a bytch for messing with you." I NEVER understood this!!!

How do you feel about this???

 

I'm with you........I've never understood either.
I personally have never had a girl-friend who was like that though.....
But you are right....I've seen it alot and I definatley don't get it.

 

I don't know at all. The idea is quite rediculous when you think about it. Maybe it's denial. You find out your boyfriend/ husband whom you loved and trusted is sleeping with someone else, it's easy to want to blame a stranger first. And the natural territorial feeling people have over loved ones, I think our animal instincts kick in.

 

Two of my exes cheated on me and I never ever got mad at the girl, well wait,thats a lie, I never said anything nasty to her. Even though she was saying shit to me, I just told her that she should be lucky that I dont give two shits about her. It was my exes fault, he was the one commited to me, not her. Of course he got a swift kick in the ass and then never saw them again..
Yeah, but i dont understand why women do that either, its pointless.. Be mad at your man, hes the one that you have the relationship with...

 

Right if im gonna get angry enough to hit someone its gonna be the man that hurt me... not the chick

 

I think its because they don't want to be left behind. They want the last laugh and to get to go, "ha bitch, hes mine...he picked me over you now so "
thats why I think that happens... or at least thats what I used to think. No longer do though, I grew up and figured out the mans not worth it and neither is the ho!

 

good point Earthy Mama. We don't want to be second in our man's life.

Another reason I thought of is if you have a child and your man cheats on you. Girls feel like they are tied down and the other woman is not and get's all the fun

 

EM's right. I've never been that way. I've done some mean things to their current gals, but nothing that wasn't beneficial info they needed to know. As I told one girl, "Good luck with Sissy Panty Humiliation Boy! You guys will have a LOT of adventures in the bedroom!" They're not together now.

 

I think men are just as bad. I'm sure if a woman went and cheated with another man and her husban found out, he wouldn't care if she told the man she was single, he'd probably still go and beat him up or something. I think a lot of it comes down to the fact that if they blame their partner, then they most likely end up alone, wheras if they make the other person the scapegoat they can hide behind it to save the relationship. Rationally, its better to dump the cheating partner, put up with being single for a bit, and find someone new and better, but love blinds doesn't it. Also I think that once someone has been cheated on they would find it difficult to trust any partner, so perhaps "better the devil you know" comes into it, as well as the fact that they "wern't cheated on, it was the other persons fault".

 

hahahahaa this thread reminded me of the Jerry Springer show for some reason...
and as far as I'm concerned, i wouldnt give two shits about a cheating bastard nor his new little squeeze. I bet that would make anyone a bit mad.
