Is weight gain justification for cheating?

Options
My boyfriend cheated on me awhile back and he never mentioned my weight gain as reason for cheating, but at one point I talked to his brother about it and he said that was a largely contributing factor? Is cheating justified if their partner doesn't have the same body after awhile?

    It's understandable, but maybe not justified. If he wasn't happy, he should have just left.

    There is absolutely NO justification for cheating, under ANY circumstances.

    If someone is no longer attracted to you to the point of wanting to stray, they no longer genuinely love you & therefore should end your relationship instead of being unfaithful.

    Any other excuses are just selfish & wrong.

    Cheating is something that can never be justified, no matter the circumstances. If you're not happy,just pack up and leave...smh

    Hell no. He sounds like a little boy to me. If he was a man, he would have talked to you about it bothering him, before dipping his shlong somewhere else. I hope you didn't put up with that petty crap because you deserve much more than that B.S...

    Is this a serious question? Tell him to get lost, lose the weight, then post hot pics of yourself on Facebook. I do think in relationships you should take of yourself and stay in shape, but gaining weight isnt a reason to stray. Don't stay with someone like that, it's not love.

    This happened a few months ago and I'm past it, now its purely a matter of curiosity. I just want to know if there is any weight ( pun totally intended) to that side of the equasion?

    Probably some very shallow, sad people will say yes, it is okay if someone gains a ton of weight to cheat on them... but that doesn't make it right.

    Nope, your boyfriend is a childish *kitten*. If he wasn't happy he could have talked it out with you like a grown up instead of betraying your trust. I really hope you DTMFA.

    NO. Cheating is NEVER justifiable, especially for appearances.
    If the weight gain was seriously a problem in his eyes he could have brought it up to you, or just have ended the relationship in a serious and slightly mature manner (I say slightly, just because the reasoning alone I consider to be childish.)

    I am 45, married 21 yrs. I was 104 lbs when we got married. At my highest I was 167. My husband still tells me I am sexy and he loves me. That's part of growing old together. I agree with the others he's a douche

    It is justification...for a douche bag *kitten* hole....A sensible person would sit down tell them they're not attracted to them anymore and work out a solution to resolve it. If the person does not feel like resolving it and prefers to stay that way, then they should leave....far before cheating becomes a factor...I think there are unfortunate circumstances but for the most part I find there's a type of person who cheats...as described in the first part of my post.

    As a follow up to your boyfriend being a douche, his brother is also a HUGE douche for trying to make you believe it's your fault.
