““A mature man chooses to not cheat. He’s disciplined with his desires. Most men don’t have the courage to be in a relationship and be open about their desires, especially their sexual desires, because it takes a very mature woman to be open to hearing that the man she’s with has desire for other women. That, suddenly, because a man is in a relationship, he’s supposed to just let go of his built in “attraction mechanism.” The same goes for women. When they enter into a relationship, they don’t stop being attracted to other men, but a mature woman doesn’t act on her desires.””
