Once a cheater, always a cheater. True, or false?

First, in the sense of games (Monopoly, Skip Bo, Scrabble, etc) and life and taking shortcuts.
Second, in relationships.

Discuss.

Not necessarily. Cheating is a sign of some deeper problem that the person (the cheater) has. Most often the cheating has nothing to do with the persons partner, if relational, or winning, if gamming. So if you have been cheated on, try your best not to take it as a personal hit. Cheaters usually have feelings of low self asteem, low self worth and shame. They are usually hiding a feeling, want, need or even a fantasy that they are afraid to tell due to fear of the responce they think they will get.
In any relationship honesty between two people, there has to be a feeling that it is the safest place on earth to be honest and vulnerable. Anything should be able to be shared and discussed with love and respect.
Even if just cheated on, if the cheater gets the proper counsilling, and is serious about digging deep down to the real reason why they feel the need to hide and keep a secrte life, then they will not have to cheat anymore.
Just my 2 cents

whoever decided shortcuts were cheating? its easy to say somebody cheats when you cant achieve the way they do... let go of your outdated ideas about right and wrong, there is only room for winner and loser now. Checkmate.
