Actually DonJuanna makes some EXCELLENT points. To the impulsive foolish man, sure...it would be easy to leave and cut your losses, but the smarter advice would be to learn why she is doing doing what she is doing so you have a superior understanding of who you are dealing with and their rationale.
Except DonJuanna's point was to stay with her and try to stick it out. Not what you're suggesting (which is eliciting value for future relationships.)
BESIDES that, trying to get truth from a woman when she does such things is not needed (and considering she hasn't admitted to doing anything and WON'T unless caught red handed fvcking someone - asking her "why she cheats" is just going to elicit anger instead of value.) Here's how the discussion would go if instead he asked "why do you talk to other guys when we're in a relationship?"
Him: Why do you talk to other guys while when we are in a relationship?
Slvt: They're just friends. You need to stop being so insecure.
Him: Yeah, but i read when you said [insert one of the things he read] that sounded like more than friends!
Slvt: Well if you trusted me - you wouldn't be going through my phone. You have the problems.... not me... (by the end of the discussion - she'd have HIM apologizing for going through her phone)
This is the kind of manipulative chick logic you're going to run into trying to "discuss" things with a girl who's fvcked in the head (as 90% of them are).
At best, he could get a real answer a few years after.
The truth is she DOES DO this sh!t to some degree because of him.
- He obviously didn't set strong frame early in the relationship on what is acceptable to him.
- Even when he did do that later in the relationship - she just ignored them and showed no fear of loss for this guy.
- He shows jealousy in other guys (which makes her more likely to fvck those other guys).
- He chose a woman who has a history of cheating.
- Instead of throwing her out on the first red flag he chose to take your feminine approach and "talk" to her about things (which allowed her to manipulate him).
- He's allowing this woman to push/pull him without doing anything in return.
But she also does it because she's a freak and should have never been made into a LTR anyway.
Talking things out is the feminine Dr. Phil garbage. I understand in your case - you're not telling him to talk it out to fix things; but MOST women are not capable of explaining why they do things in a truthful manner.... MOST won't even know themselves why they do things. Which is going to get you whatever answer they could find that "sounds" like the truth. It's also going to give them a chance to do what they do best - - - manipulate. Or if they have really low self-esteem. They'll just sit there and listen to you and agree with everything you say so that they can hate themselves more.

p.s. Didnt the OP say he did the same things with other girls in the past ?? all this rah rah crap about being a man and having self respect is hypocritical when he himself treated people the same way. Funny how everyone is so quick to negatively judge the girl and claim that she has all these issues and is so wrong.... but what about the OP !!!! He's been doing this same stuff to good people for years
I don't know if he said that or not.... i know he said that she has a history of cheating...
But...
This is irrelevant to if he should stay with her or not! If HE was cheating on her or doing the things that she's doing to him - then yes, it would be a little more relevant. But he seems like he's doing the "nice" boyfriend role pretty well.... which is ultimately THE #1 problem.
Besides that - a lot of guys on here come and post stories like this with some background on what is taught here. So, a lot of guys like to say "i've been with this girl and feel like she's the one" and they know they're going to get hell for that so they'll throw in this backstory that makes it appear like they've been some kind of ultimate player. Like, "I've been with so many women and just hump and dump them; but i found THIS ONE that is soooooo different from the rest"..... Honestly, i ignore people's back stories when i look at their current situation.... Because most of them are just made up to appear more experienced.... I just deal with the current relationship and ignore all claims of being a former super stud.
