Can a man really love his wife, if he cheats?

Good morning ladies, I need advice ! So this guy I know is married, & he praises his wife . I mean he literally puts her on a pedestal. But he’s constantly trying to get in my panties. I read in this book, that a man can still be in love with the woman he’s with, but still want a little side chick on the side. But my question is, how can you love someone,& still cheat on them . And don’t worry ladies I haven’t slept with him .

He's using his praise for his wife as bait to catch some insecure women and take advantage of it. Women can be competitive and petty, if they see a woman of high value with a man it automatically makes the man more attractive. He knows it and wants to get some side tail from those women who want validation from him

In my opinion this has nothing to do with love but morality and ethics. He doesnt have a strong moral code so even if he may deeply love his wife, it won't impact his decisions to sleep around.

I think the answer is yes, he can love her, but if they are in a monogamous relationship then he clearly doesn’t respect her. I think you can love and/or desire many people at once, but your actions determine whether you’re a decent human or not.

Can someone love you and hurt/harm you? No. There's a difference in wanting ethical boundaries and the ability to have other partners and cheating.

To love and to respect are different. I think people love and also cheat. Does that mean you should deal with it? 🥴 depends on you. Keep in mind some things are also a facade. You may think he praises his wife because of how they act in front of others and on social media but you have no idea what goes on behind closed doors. Some of the most on paper perfect couples I know, are actually the worst for the each other. Not always though!

Men like this make me think that they just love how their wives love them, not that they love their wives.

@Denise I was waiting for this comment right here . And you hit it right on the nail sista ! He actually had the nerve to say, I’m not splitting my assets with her . I’m not giving her half at all . So her & I are together for life . He’ll cheat on her , but he’ll never divorce her . I swea some men are azzholes ! He’s definitely one of them
