Despite being treated like a joke, many men admit they rationalize being cheated on and refuse to pull the plug on the relationship.

Letting Past Trauma Affect Their Current Relationship Even if you got hurt in the past, it’s unfair to your current partner to burden them with your pain. After all, one relationship has nothing to do with the other. “100% this,” confesses one man.
