so if you have cheated on your partner, it is fair game for them to cheat in the future?

[ILoveItWhenYouCallMeBoo]

according to my mum that is.

we were talking about the whole kevin and sally thing and how i thought kevin was way out of kine hitting tyrone when he thought sally and he had slept together after his affair with molly had come out and sally asked him to leave. so mum then says "sally has a short memory, she cheated on kevin before" i said that i don't think it matters how many affairs sally or kevin had had previously, the fact that they had gotten back together meant they both agreed to be faithful and it wasn't a tit for tat thing. mum disagreed. she didn't exactly say that kevin was 'owed' a free turn with someone else, but she kept repeating that sally had cheated aswell.

what do you think?

I agree with you. I felt the same way.

Kevin is a twat.

Well Kevin cheated first with Denise all those years ago.

So he doesn't get any free goes.

:o

You're not playing the game right.

In soaps, what happened in the past ceases to exist. It only counts if they are both cheating at the same time.

sorry

hurray!! i can now tell her she is WRONG according to MN!

The 'you cheated so I can' is a bit of a Jeremy Kyle excuse for cheating, isn't it?

yes i think it is. although my mum didn't actually say that she thinks it was ok for him to cheat, rather that she thought sally was unreasonable for being angry about it. as if sally had no right to be hurt or feel betrayed because she did it in teh past, despite the fact that they had made up since and put that all behind them. new start and all.

But I reckon Sally's still pissed off about Denise and everything that's happened in all the years since is because she's still storing up all the resentment.

They need to sort that out before they can move forward with their relationship.

Errrm, you know they are not real people, don't you?

Sally had a go with any bloke who stood still, long enough though.

Script writers have very short memories.

I actually think Kev was out of order. They both have had affairs, their (soap) marriage is a sham and he had no business hitting Tyrone as he had just had the affair with his wife.

Rank hypocrisy, can't stand it.

I'm with your mum

They are real Katie

hahaha

they are real!! how dare you!!

perfumed, my mum didn't say kev was out of order. i did. but i agree, sham marriage, affair after affair. i bet they get back again.

So you did, sorry

Sorry

Interesting watching my husband watching the Kevin and Sally storyline and calling Kevin a t### (we're 'recovery' from his affair!).

i think i might have been a bit insensitive posting this in relationships. i didn't mean to upset roisinniamh. do you think he has seen how damaging his actions were by watching it on screen?

Not at all upset!
Yes,that storyline is showing my DH how out of control these affairs can get and the devastation they cause.(he doesn't know their history either, I have been watching Corrie since Tracey Barlow was born!)
