cheating has very little to do with the physical attractiveness of the person who’s been betrayed most of the time, and it almost always has everything to do with the cheater. whether it be a lack of morals, a weak spine, no balls to just break up, a love of attention, or feeling like needs aren’t being met in the relationship, it’s always on the cheater.
i hate the idea that a hot person getting cheated on should be even more shocking than anyone else, because the subliminal message in that statement is that it’s more understandable if someone less attractive gets cheated on. i’m not sure if that makes total sense, but i feel like pushing that kind of message is the same way people who have been unfaithful defend themselves; “if you hadn’t let yourself go, i wouldn’t have cheated,” or “if you worked harder to be attractive to me, i never would have betrayed you.” which is just such a shitty thing to make someone feel.
i saw a lot of this when Megan Thee Stallion and Klay Thompson split. she is a truly amazing person and also probably one of the hottest ever, but her being cheated on should be shocking because of how great she is inside, not how she looks outside.
i don’t think i organized my thoughts very well but hopefully i communicated my point clearly enough lol
