Many years ago, I dated a poet. He was a very nice boy who was only into me and wouldn’t dream of cheating. Unfortunately, not all of them are like that. There are a lot of assholes out there. My advice? Don’t waste your time being angry, take revenge instead. 🙂
I think it’s not limited to “poets” … but more broadly to the male gender of the species in general … I think you’ll find just as many cheating plumbers and you will poets.
Men in general seem to be just fine with knocking around without commitment … the problem comes when they’re not honest about their intentions. It becomes up to each person to identify the character of a person to determine if they are trustworthy, honest and loyal. If they have demonstrated in the past that they cannot be trusted then it’s up to the woman to make the smart/safe decision to not trust this person and thus not give in to temptation unless they are prepared for the possibility of a wandering partner.
On revenge – it’s a waste of time and energy for the payoff … it still doesn’t change that you were wronged or hurt, at the end of the day, you’ve only taken some action that you likely normally would be repulsed by … better to walk away and be happy to be free of the low character influence in your life. Chalk it up to a learning experience and go forward instead of staying mired in the past. You can’t create positive healthy relationships with new people while you’re busy trying to “resolve” old toxic hurtful ones.

I couldn;t tell ya Brucey boy… What makes you say that…?
There are a lot of poets on here but I think two women might be unrealistic. They usually set their sight a lot lower.

Revenge…yup, would love that. Some say revenge just eats away at you and you regret the action you take…but I dunno, it’s really tempting.
