His father cheats in ME2 and if you romance Jacob then Jacob cheats on you in ME3. Its not that hard to notice that.
Ronald Taylor doesn't cheat on anyone, because he is not in a monogamous relationship with anyone. He is a ****ing rapist, though.

I see that you're not interested in the facts.
I gave you no such indication. I pointed out to you that you are using terrible logic. The fact that Jacob is a two-timer in ME3 is exactly what is contentious. It's not evidence--it's the core of the argument. If your defense of this happening is "This is not out of character for Jacob, he was always a cheater," then YOUR job is to prove that he was always a cheater, ie., find something similar in Jacob's past (it would have to be either his appearance/ revealed backstory in ME2 or in Galaxy). Of course, such evidence doesn't exist, but for argument's sake it's the only thing that will prove your premise. All we have right now is you creating an assocation fallacy that says just because Ronald Taylor was a dick, Jacob has to be, too.
As Legion would say, "An analogy:"
Bob and Fred go to Jane's house. Bob uses Jane's bathroom. Bobs sprays noxious diarrhea all over Jane's shower curtains, even writing "Death to Pigs" and "Helter Skelter" all over the bathrooms walls with the aid of his fetid liquid poo. Bob then runs out of Jane's house and disappears. Jane and Fred discover the horrible mess in Jane's bathroom. Jane says to Fred, "Wtf. We've known Bob for years, I would never have expected this from him. What would compel this seemingly nice guy to spray foul poop-water all over my wonderful shower curtains with the cute tropical beach theme and also write crazy Manson Family jargon all over my splendid vintage paisley wallpaper? This does not seem like him based on empiricial past experience." Fred responds, "What are you talking about, this is so totally Bob." Jane is confused. "What do you mean, Fred? When has he ever done anything like this?" Fred replies to Jane, "He did it right now. Ergo, he has always been this way QED, beeyatch!" Jane now thinks Fred is an even sillier person than Bob. Suddenly, Frank Zappa rises out of the floor and plays a harmonica through his nose. The End.
So, Bob is Jacob. Bob's vile waste explosion and odious behavior = Jacob cheating. Jane = us. Fred = you. Fred's justification = your justification. Frank Zappa appearing out of nowhere and playing the nose harmonica = the existential horror of an indifferent universe.
See? So the only thing you have to do is show us an example of this kind of behavior in Jacob before the incident itself. Not cite the incident itself as the example.
BlueP, you are going to eventually be able to follow a line of reasoning that goes from A to B to C. You will. You will, dammit.
