This is really so funny Bridget. At the same time it is thought provoking as well.But cutting is too much, I can' agree with that though. I wish you be careful not to cut yourself.

I have to say I somewhat agree with Bridget. I think if the other person has made it clear they don't want to be with you, you should part ways. However, you should confront the other person about it first and try to establish why they were cheating (i.e., was it for their ego, or was it because you have become distant toward them?) Either way, the responsibility for their actions is, obviously, still entirely theirs, and it's their responsibility to make the effort to right their wrongs. If you're married, seek out a marriage counselor together. If your spouse won't do that, ta-ta!

Personally, I thought the violent answer was the best advice, but it does have consequences. So, I _guess_ the second answer is acceptable. :P Like someone else mentioned though, if you have kids, it gets messy. There are times when I think staying together "for the kids' sake" is the best course of action. But then again, if all you guys do is fight, that's no environment to raise kids. In that case, I believe separation is the only answer.

I got to agree with Bridget on this one. I am so used to hearing people say that you should just go to couples therapy and work it all out....it's good to hear someone be so straight forward!

i think that cheating is not a good thing but i believe that its brings fun and humor in our lifes.

i must say that to some extent cheating must b eallowed,it brings fun and joy in the life.

I agree with Bridget, if your significant other is cheating LEAVE them. I realize it may be difficult, but that is only because you have become habitually attached to that person. Why on earth would you stay with someone who looks for pleasure else where? unless you have an OPEN relationship and are loving and communicate with each other, cheating will NEVER work.

Once a cheater, always a cheater. Not one of the funniest episodes, but good spin on the subject.

I agree. Cut them loose. Life is too short!

Haha. I love the beginning lines. You should leave the cheating relationship, but I know alot of people that just can't do it. I don't know why.

I think this is good advice... don't result to violence and just leave them. What goes around comes around, plus you want to maintain your values. Good advice.

That would be kind of funny actually...

I think what Bridgett is saying is we tend to overthink the issue of cheating. Don't ask for an explanation. Cheaters have long lists of explanations about why it wasn't their fault. If your partner is cheating accept what happened, pull yourself together, and move on. If you don't, you'll start feeling like a victim, then a loser. Once you're in that thinking mode, everything you do is effected.

Cheating is absolutely wrong and I would never tolerate that in any of my relationships! Cheating is a disgrace to the person that is suffering from their partner cheating. I would never cheat on my spouse or boyfriend, it is completely wrong. But maybe a slip of exlax into some brownies couldn't hurt.

Well I agree that leaving your partner is a good idea IF and ONLY if, you've already confronted them about it, have tried to work through it and restore what is worth restoring. Now, if they decide they don't want to put any effort into keeping your relationship and ending the other one, then you're left with one choice. Sadly, this is something I hear too often.

I voted no for both choices . I didn’t find it either funny or relevant in any way , almost pointless .

It is a thought provoking question 'what would you do if your spouse cheat on you?' many women and men areliving with this question and fear.She is pretty frank in sharing her views.She is right that some men are having open illegal relationships.

Sometimes the answer is plain as day, and I thought it was funny that Bridget picked this question - but while she answered the way I think how most people would respond, I was reminded of her openmindedness when she did mention that some people are in open relationships.

Oh I definately agree with Bridget. Great advice, so true.

Cheating is rough. You should totally leave them, especially if it's a repeated offense!

Finally, someone with some practical advice. Relationships are based on trust. No trust, no relationship. End of story.

Agreed. I will add another step though. Leave them but tell them exactly why are you leaving them!

I completely agree and thanks for the not so typical try to work it out crap. It is better to just leave and stay away from them if they are cheating.

Believe me from past experience it is way better to spend 1 week being sad or whatever about that person than to spend a couple of months in jail and or a restraining order because of that person. Just walk away plenty of people out there.

You really will get caught if you resort to violence. You will spend time in jail and you will have to go to classes to talk about your violent urges. It's not fun. Leave them! Leave them fast because they will ruin your life if you don't! You will have no self esteem and be going to domestic violence classes for a really long time trying to tell other chicks in the same situation all about how you have no self esteem and you actively subconsciously seek out these losers!

Hahaha, while I may have been tempted to set fire to my spouse's car, your advice is correct. Resorting to violence will almost always end up biting you back in the rear end during the divorce proceeding.

I adore this blog so much. I agree with the relationship advice in this blog. No one should ever resort to violence. Why fight for something that obviously isn't healthy or good for either one of you? I never understood the whole point of cheating, but people still do it. If your significant other is cheating on you, let them go. Be the bigger person and walk away, because they obviously don't deserve you. Don't hesitate to give them the finger, because they at least deserve that.

Short, to the point... but not always so easy to implement in real life!!

I love your advice on if your spouse is cheating on you.Especially if what you shoudl do I think you were right when you mention kick them to the curb as if they do it once they will do it again.

A great piece of advice Bridget. The cut them advice part was pretty funny but leave 'em also holds true too!!

I honestly don't know what I would do if my boyfriend cheated on me, I have often thought about this question. Kicking them to the curb is good advice and most likely what I'd do.

I have personally been through this situation and I think if you don't put too much emphasis on the situation then you are better able to deal with it.

Get the hell out. You can't trust someone who has lied to you about something so significant. The only exception is if they come clean to you before you even suspect. Then, since they are being honest and apologetic, it may warrant giving the a (one) second chance. Beyond that they will lose respect for you and you're lost anyhow. Save yourself the agony and move on.

Yeah no mercy!!! lol just kidding

I LOVE 'Bridget's Not So Professional Advice.' Cut them? Yeah, that would be my first instinct. Lol.

This was my favorite episode of The Jam.I only wish it was longer so I could hear more of her advice/opinions.

I don't think there's one right answer for everyone, because there's (sometimes) a lot of factors involved. Personally, though, I'd have to hurt someone.

I agree with you. If that person is cheating on you, they don't really care enough about you to remain faithful. In a marriage, it can have long-lasting consequences. I'm the result of the extra-marital affair of my mother, and it's not fun having brothers and sisters who are not really full-bloods - you don't belong anywhere and you're different and no one understands why because it's a big secret.

After reading the topic, I really was cruious about what advice she'd give. "Jerry! Jerry!" lol. You are so very funny! This is one of those situations that are pretty simple if you are the person outside looking in. I've heard of many people who have the hardest time breaking up with someone even though they were cheated. Sometimes, very few times, the cheater apologized and now they have a great marriage. Hmm... I honestly don't really know where I stand on this one. I think it depends on the situation.

Get rid of them! Sounds easy enough...oh, wait..what if you have kids? That is more complicated.

Cut them? hahaha! That is great! I have to agree for myself personally, but I also feel that some relationships are stronger than adultery. Cheating is never a good thing. My wife's mother cheated on her father and it caused divorce, alcoholism, and food addiction to name a few things. Its always better to be honest and talk BEFORE you cheat. But I realize this is an idealistic view.

HAHAHA...."If you cheat on me, I'll kill you"

Me and my husband say that to each other all the time. I think we're both half-serious.

Of course, the whole "leave-em" strategy only works if you're still young - once you have kids, it's a whole different ballgame.

The content of this episode is good enough for me. I think that Bridget takes each joke too far to be funny in my opinion. She uses the same joke too often that it quickly gets old for me.

That was great advice, who wants to be stuck in a relationship with a partner who obviously isn't happy? I too would opt for the poison, just kidding, but that's a funny way to say... Get rid of them!

hell yes.

Great advice and I agree, if they cheat then they need to beat feet.

Sound advice, girlfriend.

I love the advice to just leave them. The cut them advice part was pretty funny but no one wants to be in jail over someone so glad you suggested not doing that but it was hilarious. Thanks for all the good videos.

You go girl!!!! I might go the poison route though. lol just kidding. Remember Mrs. Bobbit? Just kidding again or am I....ha

I totally agree!!! That is just a deal breaker!!! Goes far beyond for better or for worse.
