Why do a lot of people get upset when they're "cheated" on?

Because when you have unprotected (including with pill, implant etc.) sex with somebody, you are trusting them with your health.

If they're sleeping around, they're risking your health.

Whether you are married or not.

Are you serious?

Why do most people get upset when their boyfriend/girlfriend cheats on them when they were never in a relationship in the first place?

There are no relationships outside of marriage. Boyfriend/girlfriend is just a fancy word for friends with benefits. When a guy asks a girl out on a "date" and pays for the food and the girl gives him sex that's called prostitution. When a guy asks the girl to be his girlfriend (vice versa) what they're really saying is can we be friends with benefits. Everyone outside of marriage is single.

What total *******s. I've been with my GF for over 5 years, we live together, have joint financial obligations and have moved cities with one another. Neither of us is anyway single. How can you possibly sustain such nonsense? What an incoherent point you fail to make.
