Question of the Week#8 · 2:52am May 11th, 2021
Hello and welcome back to Question of the Week. I truly don't know how many of you actually read these, but I hope that those of you who do actually read and comment on these blogs enjoy them. Please feel free to comment (if you haven't already) your feedback is greatly appreciated.
So onto the question of the week.
Well, this actually took me a while to think of, but here goes.
Out of all the lovely pony waifu's in the show, who do you think would cheat on you if the two of you were in a relationship? Feel free to explain your reasoning.
Well, that's the question of the week. I hope you all enjoyed it and I hope you have a good day.

What a rough discussion topic.
5516519 It is, yet despite that, I kind of hope people will give it a try.

Sorry, sorry. I was trying to avoid thinking about it too seriously.
It would have to be my darling Rarity.
Maybe it’s the clop I’ve read but she’s the only one I can see getting off on a transgression like that.
I think 4 of the 6 would be capable of it.
Exclusions being the elements of loyalty and honesty.
I'd just have an explicitly open relationship with Pinkie Pie because she's too much for any one pony.

5516626 I should probably specify that when I say Waifu, I'm not talking inclusively of the main six, merely any of the mares in the show that you might think of as a waifu. If that makes sense.
Vinyl Scratch.
She does not strike me as someone who will let life pass her by because of an existing relationship.
My general point still applies: if you marry somepony you expect to cheat on you, make it an explicitly open relationship so that it's not cheating anymore.
Dang, this hard to think about. In my mind it would be easier to give reasons to why they wouldn't.
I personally don't think any of the Main Six would cheat if they had significant others.
Twilight is known to follow rules to the letter with an almost fanaticism, I don't think she would willingly break the implied promise that comes with a serious relationship. And if she did she would probably go through an existential crisis. It's somewhat the same with Applejack and Rainbow Dash.
Applejack is the honest southern belle. I don't see her being capable of commiting to such a big lie, to her friends, family traditions, and the one she loves. The guilt would crush her if she did.
In all honesty I would have pegged Rainbow as someone who would do it. With her need to be constantly going fast and doing something entertaining, she may get bored with whoever she is with.
However,
Her Element is that of Loyalty, and intimate relationships are built on trust and loyalty. Rainbow would only cheat on you as form of payback.
Fluttershy and Pinkie Pie are in their own spectrums. Fluttershy is too kind and caring to cause the broken heart that would follow in the wake of cheating. And just like Applejack she would be crushed under her own guilt if she somehow did.
Pinkie might be someone who could cheat, what with her partying way of life, but on the other hand she embodies the Element of Laughter and thus tries to put a smile on everyone's faces and make them laugh happily. All the hateful and bitter feelings that come out of an affair would not make someone happy.
And now we get to Rarity. My first reaction is to say: Yes, she is capable of cheating on someone. She may get someone she loves, but when someone else comes along that catches her interest more, she may indulge herself.
However,
Rarity is a lady, and one who wants things to go perfect. While cheating would stir up the drama she loves, it would also betray her image of something a lady would do.
And thus my reasoning on the Main Six. I don't really know much about the other "waifu's" well enough to say with the same conviction. Maybe Aloe and Lotus could do it, since they could be tempted all the time at the spa.
I know this wasn't very helpful, since you asked of us who would do it. But even the best people have made mistakes, accidents, and slip ups. All it takes is a bad day and the right time to do something you'll regret.
