Condemn isn't the word I'd use. Cheating on a partner isn't something I just excuse as "heck, it's nature". It can happen... yeah, you can be attracted to other people, but you don't act on it, in the same way I wouldn't just go over to another girl and ask her out if I found her attractive, if I was going out with someone.
If people want to act like that and cheat, people will look down on them. I wouldn't want to be cheated on and I'm sure you wouldn't. As others have said, the right thing to do would have been to wait until she got out of the house and then ending it with her boyfriend first, before hopping into bed with another guy.
I have the feeling, that's not really Stephs problem though. She's so needy, she has to have someone loving her all the time. If her bf is absent, she finds someone else. Had she stuck it out, I get the feeling she'd have just gone straight back to her boyfriend. In this case, I don't actually think it's because Jeremy is better, it's just because he's
there. She has a total lack of self control.
