1) Complete sociopathic scumbags. These guys don’t make up excuses or justification for their crap they just do it. They feel little remorse for their actions. They might get caught (they never confess) and get called every name in the book but they don’t care. They rarely feel regret.
2.) Otherwise decent guys who cave to temptation. When they get caught they are guilt-stricken and make zero excuses for what they did. They often confess out of guilt.
These guys are usually have one or two lifetime screw ups (unless they are sex addicts but those are more #1). They might be sexually frustrated with their wives/gfs. They might be losing physical attraction. However they almost never seek out other women. Usually some scandalous (yet attractive) home wrecker comes along and puts it right in front of him. The disgusting irony is she probably wouldn’t even hook up with him if he was single (she likes the drama). But still he makes no excuses for what he did.
However more often then not I notice that women usually make up excuses and want to be considered “justified” for their cheating bs.
Her boyfriend/husband might not be giving her attention or treating her poorly (no proof he’s cheating though). She gets “upset” with him and considers cheating getting even. These women do mental gymnastics to make themselves feel better. They want someone to tell them that her decision was “okay”. She has to protect her ego by demonizing her boyfriend/husbands. She doesn’t want people to label her a cheating whore but that is exactly what she is unless she OWNS up to being completely wrong. However she still clings to excuses to protect her ego and considers herself a “victim”.
If you’re a cheater there are two options: own up to your crap & make zero excuses for your bs OR just admit your scumbag & you don’t care. No 3rd door.
