I suppose I'd have to date to get cheated on though right?

(I don't mean the silly little crushes lots of people get during life-long relationships though, I mean serious consideration)

Thanks for the advice, but I don't think it would work in my case. I had a much longer reply prepared. It was stuffed with personal details. For a moment I forgot this was a public forum where all my crap would be seen by who knows how many strangers.
I'll just vaguely state my past and the emotional issues entwined in it, are deeply rooted and more complicated than my prior posts in this thread suggest. I've had a long time to mull over these issues with and without outside assistance, and feel fairly confident in knowing where my limitations lay.
I do understand - not the detail I have no idea, but the general thrust of what you're saying would fit me as well, and I certainly wasn't ready to approach things the way I describe until well into my adult life, when I was happy and had met somebody stable and trustworthy to spend my life with.
Prior to that I was lucky enough to be cheated on by (someone I thought was) the be-all end-all love of my life - and it was done in a way that was particularly harsh given what the person knew about my earlier life. At the time I took it very badly, although subsequently I realised that you just can't take a deeply weak and immoral person's actions, personally.
Now I am completely over that person, they are a whole life/family away in the past and I have a happy life, lovely spouse, beautiful children, crazy snowphobic dog and so on, but I would still hate to dwell on the darkness of that experience, and the places it took me to - if there was one thing I could choose to shout down the "Time Trumpet" at my younger self it would be "there's light at the end of the tunnel, all of this despair and misery ends up being completely insignificant compared to what comes later".
</sorryrandomemotionfart>
I have never cheated myself, and fingers crossed I never would, although I seem to have been presented with the opportunity more often than my moderate looks and irritating personality warrant. I think that's just life being sadistic more than anything.

I've always been of the school of thought that if you seriously consider putting the moves on somebody else, you should end the current relationship if you can. I have done this once.
(I don't mean the silly little crushes lots of people get during life-long relationships though, I mean serious consideration)
So true on this, you are always going to be tempted, just so long as you remember that feeling attraction is natural and you don't beat yourself up over being attracted all is good.
My wife and I are pretty open about this. She laughs when she catches me looking or when I say, "Oh, hello there *gawks*," and I thoroughly laugh when she says that some guy gets her motor running or that he can park his boots under her bed any time.
Its all in good fun, you have to be alive to be in love. Just don't touch.

You outlined nothing. Yes, social engineering has had an impact on marriage and traditional relationships, feminism being the primary culprit but the basic urge of man is to seek VAGINA, i.e. procreation. In earlier times this was accomplished through marriage, these days with marriage being an almost sure loss for any man, there is little incentive for a man to marry or enter into any serious relationship. The female dynamic, however, has changed little.
I'm not speaking in terms of "science", as you are. I'm speaking in terms of human thoughts and emotions, which traditionally haven't been dictated by the cold logic of science. We see more in others than just another member of the species with whom we may procreate. We see people, with thoughts and emotions of their own. And with those we are attracted to, we seek an emotional connection as well as a physical one.
Or so it used to be. That's changing rapidly so that people think more like you. And if one wishes to view the world and those within it as creatures rather than people, then that is their choice. I myself would rather see people as people, and I wish others would continue doing the same.
EDIT: Actually, I take that back. We're not seeing each other as "creatures." Most animals form tight-knit family units and remain with partners for long periods of time, as mankind has done for thousands of years.
Now we're becoming less human and less animal. We're becoming something else entirely, more like machines than man. It doesn't sit well with me, and this could only be accomplished through social engineering as I stated earlier.

Ah well that was years ago and let's just say karma came back to my ex when it came to dating others post-relationship. Since then I haven't been in any relationships (dated yes but haven't found the right one).

Blame feminism.
