Why does someone cheat?

Isn’t it easier to break off the relationship and then go have a thrill dating again instead of hurting someone in the process...
Not everybody desires to end the current relationship. There are many reasons to stay. Children are a big factor. Mostly I think it's the unknown.

The other person may bring out feelings that make them feel new and intoxicated. They may not have even had an issue with their current relationship until those moments occurred. Their partner probably still has many good qualities that make them want to stay. I don't think every person that cheats desires to hurt their partner. There is a strong pull that can be difficult to walk away from. That's not an excuse, though.

Despite the pain it may cause it doesn't always mean the relationship needs to end. A relationship can survive infidelity, if both want it.

Because they get seduced, or because they dont care, or because they're really stupid/evil.
That would be my choice.
