What do you think is the main reason people cheat?

(1) Sex - needs not being fulfilled.
(2) Thrill - excitement.
(3) Love - fell in love
(4) Financial - money
(5) Rational - its okay its just once
(6) Other

I think it’s a combination of needs not being met ( fridgid ) , someone new , the excitement , the risks and lack of communication between couples .

My wife only cheated on me in college. She was horny and I was only able to see her once or twice a month. Upperclassmen were constantly asking her out. She couldn't handle her rum once she was out with another man. She enjoyed it. I might add that when I asked her to stop dating others, thus having sex with them, she stopped immediately.

@exexec Congrats on your long relationship!

Many times, it's neglect. Might not even be sexual. I think being accepted and respected is given short shrift when it comes to matters like this.

this is a gigantic generalization

men - don't want to be monogomous and need a little variety

women - don't cheat unless their emotional need isn't met

as with any generalization there is a lot of room for variety

Same principle as why ppl look for a new job while having one. Security and stability, so u can jump ship when it best suits you.

@zonavar68 One hint:
"Ya-HOO!"

Wrong question. They don't cheat but rebel against the subjugation or being cheated by a promise. They agree being forced by convention but later find that nothing works as agreed.

@in10RjFox breach of contract obligations lol

Toxic relationship?

The need to want to experience situations or experiences that cannot be shared or satisfied with the same person, is the desire and attachment to something different that is not easily accessible.

Loneliness and disconnect with their partner

Cheat is wrong
Emotional needs aren't being met

@AlienTheExtraterrestrial translated it means not enough sex, not enough mind reading and not enough splashing of the cash.

Emotional needs not met.

People’s lives are generally boring. Cheating for a lot of people is just about excitement.

@Zonuss unrequited love, or one partner (usually the woman) is no longer 'feeling it' and wants to 'feel it' with one of her plan-B playbook backup men.

It’s on offer. You have to resist it.

Selfishness and indifference and disrespect to others
AbbeyRhode · F
Lack of morals, and a lack of respect for themselves or their partner.
Thrill, sex, …monogamy is hard.
