Well, if I have a friend that steals from my cheating spouse that would be awesome.
-
A friend that steals. I can understand how people who live together can not love or respect each other anymore, but I don't see how friends can lose so much respect for you that they would steal from you.
-
someone cheating on me. i can stop inviting that friend over but a broken heart is harder to mend
-
A cheating spouse is much harder to get rid of than a stealing friend. I would say the spouse that cheats would be worst. You have agreed to spend the rest of your life with him, while friends come and go.
-
Both would be really terrible - but i wouldnt want to know either of them again ever, if they did!
-
Obviously the cheating spouse. Thats your life partner, going back on their promise. Whats worse than that?
-
The ultimate devastation would be my spouse cheating on me with my friend who's always stealing from me....which would be..... my GIRL!!!!!!!!!!!
-
To me these would be one and the same. A cheating spouse is stealing your dignity from you. A stealing friend is taking material possessions. In both cases though, they are taking something from you with no intention of giving it back.
-
If it was one of my four best friends, that would be brutal, they're like brothers I'd have to be with a woman quite a while for it to equal that level of disappointment

Tough one. At least I got a whole lot of alimony out of the cheating spouse and not even an apology from the friend that stole from me. I'll go with cheating spouse though.
-
I would rather have a friend who stole from me...cheating would hurt a lot deeper.
-
friend who steals your spouse.
-
Well, a friend is someone who's been there for you emotionally in the past, while a partner is someone you've had a physical and emotional relationship with- therefore, a cheating spouse betrays you in two ways, which I would think is more devastating.
-
depends to be honest - why the friend steals and if my spouse and i were in difficulty. the one that comes more of a shock at the time would hurt the most. if you and your spouse had been having difficulties for years its expected, and if your friend is a drug addict its expected - if you get what i mean.
-
Both acts are deceitful yet a cheating spouse is more personal because they are your life partner. When two people marry they become one. We can never become one with a friend.
-
a spouse that steals from you
-
The spouse that cheats would affect your life the most but there may be many reasons behind it that need internal reflection. Don't blame yourself without reason, but there it's often a two way street. Kids may naturally steal from each other before they know the consequences. As an adult you learn to trust your instincts but they may be way off. It's difficult to trust again if you've been in either situation.
-
I would say "What's the difference?" Your spouse is supposed to be your friend, companion, and someone you can trust. If they cheat, it is stealing your dignity, your sanity,your belief that all is good with this person.
-
My spouse cheating on me.
-
a spouse that cheats on you because your spouse swore till death do use part and all that other stuff in your vows. I take my vows to heart and am grateful that my spouse does as well.
-
Altho heart breaking, who can you confide in if you can't call your stealing friend.
-
A spouse that cheats would be worst. All that emotional time and the enrgy would be wasted. And what about the good memories? Knowing that the spouse doesn't care about you anymore and going to someone else hurts the most. A friend who steals from me: I wouldn't really care much about it. It just depends on how much he/she stole from me.
-
THE SPOUSE ONE.
-
I probably would not go to jail for kicking my "friend's" ass, but I doubt I'd fare so well were I to "open up" on my wife (in the melee dps sense). I've had both happen to me, and the spouse thing is by far more devastating.
-
Infidelity would be worse, for you aren't married to your other friends. Also, it also depends on whether your spouse could have infected you with a std or even aids.
-
A cheater is far worse.
