I Have a Question

Why do some people get married, but then continue to sleep and flirt with other people? It doesn't make sense. Why go through all the effort to get married, only to continue acting single? If you want to go around sleeping with anyone and everyone, just stay single. It's not even a religious thing, just marriage should be based on one of two things: mutual love and respect, and forming an alliance with another nation in time of war.

They love their significant other,but sometimes people don't get certain needs from within the marriage. Even if they try so hard. So they find in someone else by mistake, though it sometimes just happens, and I don't mean it's all about the sex. It depends on the situation and the person every person is different. Also it could be they have kids, and they stay in a unhappy marriage for the sake of the kids, but on the other hand, they have something on the side. So they can have the strength to deal with the situation at home.. It can be all kinds of reasons.

It all starts after the honeymoon is over, and then the reality kicks in. However, that's why they say make sure that person you marry is definitely the right one. Some marriages are very happy with both faithful to their relationship. Like I said in depends on the individuals..

Scientists are studying this at the moment and I think we will have better understanding in the new future...
