Ethics?

avoiding the harming/betrayal of others who have done no harm to them.

Hang on. So, since when do AS people in general think it's a good thing to cheat on a partner? Most will think that it's wrong.

Who said Aspies think it's good to cheat on a partner?

I'm with a partner, and I would never cheat on him. I'd feel guilty to even think about it.

Plenty of NTs cheat and don't think about the consequences nor considerate feelings of others.

Personally I'm very against cheating, would never do it and would leave my husband if he did.

It must be a provocation.

How will an aspie even able to cheat if getting close enough with someone is very hard for us and a lot of us have no experience with any kind of romantic relationship.

We can't even get one person to start a relationship with. How possible is it to get another to cheat with? And what is the point? Risk losing a relationship that took a lot of energy to establish for what, a little bit of sex? It is not worth it.

I think the OP found out about cheating recently, thought he saw Aspies talking about it like it's good, then got upset about it.

I don't think he's being provocative.

Where is this coming from? Have you been lurking on ASPartners?

The grammar of the original post is absolutely horrid, but if I'm reading it right, the OP thinks that people with Aspergers think that cheating is good and wonders why they think that way. Most people do not think cheating is a good thing. I think people with AS are more monogamous and less likely to cheat in relationships. Having a relationship is emotionally exhausting for an aspie, and having multiple partners would make it worse to a point I could not handle at all, so I can't imagine myself cheating at all. Also, things like deception, lies, and cheating don't come naturally to an aspie. I'm sure there are some people with AS who cheat in relationships, but it's likely very rare. I wonder what gave you the idea that people with AS think cheating is good.

I knew someone online who said he was an aspie, he cheated on his wife all because she wasn't able to have sex due to a medical condition. I told him why couldn't he just divorce her than cheat? He did get a gf during his marriage and then they broke up because his obsession and high need for sex was too much for her and eventually he and his wife got a divorce. I don't know if she ever found out though. But yeah this would be a red flag if I were dating and the guy was still married and his wife didn't know about him meeting other women from online.

according to author Thomas Sheridan [author of "puzzling people- the labyrinth of the psychopath"], sociopathic types are the most likely to cheat because 1]they congenitally have an excess of testosterone, both males and females] and 2]they have no moral limits - the author calls such types "skin jobs" because they only superficially resemble humans, but they lack consciences and live only to take advantage of people. some NT folks who think they see a similar variant of emotional coldness in aspies, mistakenly ascribe the same evils to them. but those folks making those assumptions ["presumptions"? ] are WRONG.
