I have no idea what he means. Unless your boyfriend is having an existential crisis, questioning the very nature of life, society, and... death.
He has come to understand that, truly, the cradle rocks on the precipice of the grave. Death's cold hand rests upon all of our shoulders, at all times. From the moment we can walk, we are slowly truding towards oblivion.
And what if there is no afterlife? No heaven? What if, instead of cosmic judgement, there is merely... nothing. If we're all just meant to be worm food, then what is the purpose of existence?
Is life meaningless? Why not cheat? Why not bang whoever we want? WHAT DOES IT MATTER!
Man, your boyfriend is deep. Either that, or he's a self-absorbed Momma's boy with entitlement and impulse control issues. Probably that. You shouldn't forgive him. Not because he cheated, but because he tried to sell you a line a stone goth kid couldn't deliver without snickering.
I could be wrong, of course. "What if there's nothing after this" could mean... actually I have no f*!#king idea what he's talking about. Ask him to further define this statement, then get back to me.
The more I think about, the less inclined to think this was a statement addressing mortality and the reasons human beings need to behave according to basic rules of behavior regardless of what comes next, be it a void or a cloud full of bird people in togas.
I think that maybe he said that because he's thinking "what if there's no more nooky if we get too serious together?" Which is totally lame of course. Or maybe he's thinking how he doesn't want to stop getting it on with whoever he wants when he wants. If the last one, it won't matter how much he's forgiven, because he'll just keep doing what he wants.
Yeah he was totally thinking that he wasn't gonna get any after you guys got serious. Ugh. Dump this man. HARD. He doesn't deserve you. He doesn't think that you're ENOUGH which is lame. Plus, if he's cheated once, he'll cheat again. Dont trust this man.
I think what that translates to is, "I'm afraid of being with one vagina forever".
I dated a guy, I was the 2nd girl he ever dated, he essentially said the same freggin thing. I guess thats why its important for them to get all that misguided energy out.....
Forgiving him is up to you.... Would I forgive that? Fuck no
I think hes saying, what if you forgive me but theres nothing left of our relationship after this? Maybe hes afraid hes ruined it. or knows hes gonna cheat again.
Who cares what he meant by that? Dump him, forgiving him just shows him he can get away with it. This/He is simply not worth the effort.
I keeled over laughing, this is too hilarious for mere chuckles. Since the beginning of this website I have been debating whether or not to get an account. Now I officially must. "What if there's nothing after this" could mean... actually I have no f*!#king idea what he's talking about." haha! DeVore's answer is spot on with this answer!
DUMP him. Taking back cheaters just teaches them that its ok and they can get away with it. I wish people would just make a big pact that they would never accept a cheater back and then the cheaters would be left to date each other. Ahh, what a utopia.
I agree with the other women on what he meant by this. Move on, because he's a jerk. At least he didnt say he cheated because of something you did or are like... but whatever. Dump him.... and also get tested.
I believe this is a Pascal's wager situation - it is better to believe and be wrong than to not believe and be wrong. Men are creatures of habit, and if you take him back after he cheats, he will likely think that he can get away with it again. I'm not saying that my fellow guys can't or won't change, the "Reformed Player" is proof that we can, but until he has a big enough reason to change, he won't. If you take him back, you're clearly not a big enough reason for him to change his ways.
I think I agree with a previous comment that he meant "what if I'll never be with another girl after you?" Which you can take a number of ways. I've been with guys before that would start talking about the future and about us living together and it would make me think, "wait... 'forever' means I'll never be with anyone else ever again." And it would make our relationship wither and die because, at the time, I was too young to fathom being with only one person for the rest of my life. So maybe that's the case, but he's too lame to do the right thing and break up with you before finding out if there's something better. Though, maybe John's right and he's a creepy jerk. In either case, he's a jerk and isn't worth it.
Bail.
This was my question. We are still together. Somehow taking a weekend trip away really helped me to figure out what was going on in his head. I did ask for him to clarify the statement. It is related to the what if you and I end up together? What if I put all my trust and faith in 2 this and you hurt me? I do believe that it all stems from fear. As for just leaving him....a little more difficult than that. Ive known him since we were kids. One of those childhood crushes that grew in 2 a romance kinda deal. I was crushed but I have to 4give even if at some point I choose not to be with him. For all the good hes done I can look past one bad event. I wont do it again! But hes the star to my burst; we balance each other. John Idk if you agree with anything that Im saying and Id love another perspective. I believe its possible to change and I think that love can be enough. I know when he lies to me. And hes not lying when he explains to me how much I mean to him and how sorry he is. Its possible hes learned his lesson. Agree?
-Thanx for your response

i believe once a cheater always a cheater.. apparently hes not attracted to you anymore (physically or mentally), why linger on and wonder what he means. He does not deserve you and to have cheat on you, and giving you such a bs answer clearly he could do it again or already has few times. If he felt there was nothing he should have ended it before cheating on you!
What a lovely day for a 1442984! SCK was here

Undeniably believe that which you said. Your favorite reason appeared to be on the web the simplest thing to be aware of. I say to you, I certainly get annoyed while people think about worries that they plainly do not know about. You managed to hit the nail upon the top as well as defined out the whole thing without having side effect , people could take a signal. Will probably be back to get more. Thanks

nice one, I thoroughly enjoyed scaning your story. I really appreciate your wonderful know-how and the time you put into educating the rest of us.
Good story and a pleasant summation of the problem. My only problem with the analysis is given that much of the population joined the chorus of deregulatory mythology, given vested interest is inclined toward perpetuation of the current system and given a lack of a popular cheerleader for your arguments, I'm not seeing much in the way of change.
Good work, It’s posts like this that keep me coming back and checking this weblog regularly, thanks for the info!
I dugg some connected with you post as I thought they were very helpful very useful whenever I observed this internet site I went on reddit to share a number of the love with them.
