My answer isn't intended to be horrible (And I'm sure you have heard worse), but I'd have to be desperate or the kind of guy to just sleep with anyone, to give a woman that cheated on me the satisfaction of seeing my number pop up on her phone screen again.

Why do they call you? Why do you cheat? Why did they cheat? I'm sure life in this circle has become abnormal but this the path all of you chose. We all have choices to be made in life, they made theirs and you made yours. No one was forced to cheat.
I suppose it is a trap you've set. Based on what you said, it would sound like some of these men had to work hard in order to be with you. I feel like by the time they've realized what they really wanted, it turns into them cheating on you. You've come to their level as well by cheating. So I think with all the time invested it becomes a "hey let's hook up because we are on the same level". Whether that means sex or a mental level isn't for me to say. Everyone has their own agenda.
I guess you had bad luck with men but you did do some cheating as well. Accepting the past is important to moving on. The choices we have made and and continue to make define who we are in life. It doesn't matter if they call you or not. It matters what you choose to do. I would say, try to make some right choices this time.

 I lost sight of your questions with all my blathering.
What do these men see in you and why do they come back for more? A bitter woman who is naive enough to believe she has the power and is punishing them by using them for sex. They keep coming back because they believe you'll keep giving them what they want.
Have you heard that old joke about the young boy who tricks a young girl into showing him her underwear by paying her to do cartwheels? Her mother warns her what the boy is really up to and the next day the girl comes home and proudly tells her mother how she foiled him? 'I tricked him, mommy. Today I wasn't wearing any underwear!'
That's kind of what you're doing with the sex and these men.

I understand you resent being perceived as an easy lay, but you did ask for our opinions. Without trying to be judgmental your screen name and your 'proud' history of dealing with men 'financially, sexually and mentally' does leave one with certain impressions.
The grammar in this post is very poor, which makes it a bit confusing, but I'll do my best.
First, when you say you cheated and were cheated on, do you mean you retaliated against the men who cheated on you by cheating on them? Or that you punished future lovers for the sins of past lovers?
In a way you're like a wounded animal whose blood trail is being picked up by every predator in the area. Rough childhood? If you had been cheated on once, I would say it was him. Being cheated on several times suggests the root of the problem is you. Specifically the men you seem to attract and be drawn to.
You've been hurt and you tried to secure your safety by ingratiating yourself with or emulating the only 'powerful' role models you had - predators. You're trying to rent other people's power (using sex as a currency) instead of creating your own that you can use free of charge.
Self respect must be earned by you, just as respect for others must be earned by them. If you want to think highly of yourself then you must behave in a way that you can be proud of. Not allowing others to mistreat you (you cannot control what they do, but you can control what you'll tolerate), being honest and direct about what you do and don't want, delaying short term gratification for long term reward and treating others the way you WANT to be treated (not how you fear you'll be treated) are some of the ways in which you can earn your self respect.
Think of someone you truly respect and admire (an aunt, a grandmother, anyone). Then do the things they do that have earned your respect and admiration.
Maybe once you reach this level of recovery, you'll gain new insight into why you made the choices you made.

 They don't care if you're a cheater. And no, it is not love that they're feeling. To them you are an easy lay . You are the side girl who will put out because you don't have any respect for yourself. They miss you because they miss the sex.
