Cheating on the soaps and chatting on the talk shows mirror each other so closely these days that sometimes we're hard-pressed to tell the difference. Guess which of these quotes came from soaps and which are all talk. -B.J. Sigesmund 1a. ''Now, let me get this straight....You told Jack you were pregnant so that you wouldn't lose him to Stefanie?'' 1b. ''I think of this as manipulation .A woman cannot get pregnant to get a man to marry her anymore.''

2a. ''I want him and I love him. And I know he and I belong together.'' 2b. ''I still wear his ring around my neck. I'm still ever hopeful. Because I love him.''

3a. ''He gave me some very important information about your childhood .Your mother mistreated you.'' 3b. ''(My father) dragged me into the bedroom and disrobed me, put me over his knee, and beat me.''

4a. ''I don't mess with married men, but if they're engaged or living with someone, that's fair game.'' 4b. ''I slept with her husband.''

5a. ''Hold me. Love me. Care for me.'' 5b. ''C'mon...let me make love to you.''

6a. ''Damn that man! He was alive all this time! How dare he play with people's lives like this?'' 6b. ''My parents thought I was dead for at least a year, and it was one of the greatest regrets.''
