if you can't be responsible in a relationship with one person let them break up with you, or be in a three-person relationship besides that, this ain't grade school so get a life
I prefer the idea of promise breaking. Right now, for as long as we continue to bind people together legally and religously, essentially, what you're doing is creating a contract. One that, unless otherwise specified, requires two people to only have intimacy with each other. So, when you "cheat", you are braking the contract. Or, if you don't want to think of it so coldly, you are making a promise to someone to do just that, and to do anything else would break tha that promise.
so, if you're going to put yourself in a position where you have made a promise to someone, who has their life and emotions tied to you, but you cannot keep those promises, just break it one time. Get divorced, break up with the person you are supposed to be with and move on. There's no reason to toy with someone's emotions. Better still, just don't get married if you are real with yourself.
Having terrible things in your life doesn’t give you the right to purposely do terrible things to someone else. (And there’s no such thing as accidentally cheating.)

Not the only reasons, but they all apply.
The title is 5 Reasons not all reasons ever.

I believe it all comes down to number one. Without real live there in no commitment and without commitment comes betrayal.
The term "cheat" is erroneous and stupid, and we all should stop using it.

At least, that's how I see. it.
Yes. Anybody who cheats on a person by having time with others is a wuss.
Note that reasons aren’t always good ones. There’s no justifiable reason to cheat. 😕
Commitment issues, childhood issues, abuse, etc.

Saying purposely sounds malicious. Not many people purposely cheat on someone to make them feel like shit. It's love vs lust.
Excuse me for my vocabulary not being top grade. You know what I mean, right?
No, sir. Not even in that response.
Never mind. I don’t know how else to explain it.
You're 29 and still don't know how to elaborate?
Or maybe you’re just too stupid to understand me. This could go on forever, so I’m done talking about it.
Too stupid to understand you? You're not hot sh*t.
They aren’t getting what they want physically in the relationship.
That isn't an excuse, though. If your unhappy with the physical aspects of your relationship be a grown-up an break-up with them.
@coralee some people try to get the best of both worlds. I’m not saying it’s right but it obviously happens.
Let's not forget that we live and learn. Something that may have occurred during the time may have seemed Okay, but later on you'll know.
this feels bias towards men. but you're probably right
I think if it's getting stale stray as long nobody knows knowone gets hurt
Cheaters are not capable of love.
Men cheat because their woman got fat or annoying.
Your opinion.
@BarbieSoFetch
There's a lot of truth to it, actually.
Cheaters are tests. No excuses
True
People cheat because they are stupid, and don't understand how it will make others feel.
Thought there would be interesting points. Nope.
This is so good! The points are pretty good!
It's become part of the culture.
number 5 sums up the rest
Very interesting mytake.
Reasons are only excuses. The ONLY reason is #5
Very contradicting.
I only agree with 1,2,3
