Do you think this is true?
Men cheat to stay in the marriage while women cheat to leave the marriage. Agree?
Do you think this is true?
This is very true... I've never been faithful.. and I've been cheated on too... I am in a committed relationship now, and I cheat bc i want to find a more suitable mate, and I've been with men who cheat on their wives not bc they want to leave her, but bc she isn't putting out or bc the sex life is now boring. . some cheat for validation... their Mates don't make them feel desirable so, they cheat bc they're being made to feel better and important and attractive by someone else. I whole heartedly believe you can push someone to cheat. The reality is, we fall in love with people for who they are and how they treat you, if that person decides to start treating you different and becomes a different person then why is it that you're the one to blame when you go seeking those traits you once saw in your mate from someone else. Fact, cheating isn't black and white... people change, thus making monogamy difficult
No. Men cheat because they're selfish and women cheat because they're selfish. It's so annoying when people try to justify it or find excuses. Like no, man or woman, nobody who loves or respects you will cheat. People who love somebody or even just have any respect for them usually tend to try to not hurt that person, and some even make conscious effort to avoid doing things that can me misinterpreted and hurt the other.
Lack of love, lack of respect, lack of morals, selfishness, horrible personality, those are the real reasons somebody cheats.
People with morals, or people who respects the other, they'll either walk away from the relationship or they'll talk to their partner and try to work it out together.
This should have been picked as "best answer" all the way
I like how u connected moral and horrible personality to it
Only cheat because deep down they are unhappy and seeking happiness elsewhere... rather than being adult and talking things through as what an adult would do they seek the cowards way of getting comfort elsewhere and that is for both men and women...
A truly happy and loved up person would not seek sex elsewhere...
@0112358 Fed up of hesting excuse there is nothing that can excuse cheating ever, set the other person free if cheats want to cheat
@0112358 Set them free to be happy to find someone who won't cheat on them, if the kids were a concern to the cheater he wouldn't be out shagging God knows who but rather at home helping kids with homework, again nothing excuses cheating but lies and greed. Ok
So you meant 'leave your kids if you ever want intimacy in your life again'. Okay. The rest of your comments make no sense. You're basically saying 'anyone who cares about their kids will never have sex again, because that would take away time from being with their child'. It's a wonder anyone has more than one child. I guess they must be shitty parents.
Where did I type that? U one to justify cheating on your wife? Fuck off you crank
Cut it out both of you. This is stupid.
There are lots of factors to take into consideration... bottom line is that people who cheat don't love or respect their partner. If ur unhappy then leave don't play mind games or string people along and get their hopes up for nothing... it's as simple as that - it goes a long way to be honest and open
Also at the end of the day the kids suffer and get affected by seeing their parents in pain and the kids end up paying the price later on inlife when one or both parents does something stupid or selfish, so if u have kids please consider them as well - their feeling and how it's gonna affect them in the future. It's not fair to cheat anyone and the future generation ends up suffering big time
Both genders cheats for one reason: insecurity, however when a woman cheats it´s more likely that she ends the relationship and keeps with her lover, why? Womens tend to be more emotional and they´re not gonna be having something with two guys at the same time (less likely 3 and more), if they feel more emotionally attached to one over the other sooner than later a break up will happen. Not the case for us, male cheaters rather don´t créate any emional bond with their lovers, and they cheat till the end, till they get caught, however I gave a general example, they are always exceptions.
I think there's a lot of truth to that. If men in a sexless marriage simply wanted out, they could get divorce. But many of them choose to cheat precisely because they don't want out of the marriage. But they need sex. Women often do not understand that it is a need.
@aboomya You will be one of those women...

People cheat because they don't respect their partner, they don't feel obligated to honor their commitments, and they are concerned only about their genital pleasure. Everything else is just a rationalization.
Men cheat because often fucking the same pussy forever gets old. It's like eating your favorite pizza. Sure you love it but eventually the luster wears off and you want to try something else.
Women cheat because they ARE HYPERGAMOUS. A woman's loyalty is only there as long as a man is her best option. If another male she "perceives" as better is serious about dating her then she will start shifting her attention towards him and will most likely cheat to get commitment from him.
I will agree that most men who cheat doesn't want out of their marriages. They are in a sexless marriage and they just want the sex that they aren't getting. I tell my friends who aren't interested in sex anymore... that there husband's could cheat if they dont have it with their husbands. They dont believe me...
Yes.
Men can love a woman completely and be happy 100% with her as a partner. But if she does not give sex, then he will go elsewhere to get it, not because he doesn't love her or isn't happy with her but because sex is a need for a male that has to be filled. We can have sex without emotional attachment and it is basically just a pleasurable activity which reduced stress, so we go back to our partner without the animosity or pressure for them to give sex. And we are happy being with our partner for all the other stuff.
Women attach emotion to sex and if she is in a sexless marriage she feels undesired and needs to find a male who makes her feel "loved", she will start to lose interest in wanting to stay with her partner and will "test the waters" outside of the relationship. If she has sex and it makes her feel it's safe to leave, she will. If she feels guilt or like it wasn't worth it, she will stay and "realize" she wants to work on the relationship.
@Reach500 We need it so much because genetically it is programmed in our brain. It's an evolutionary drive to spread our seed.
Women can't understand this because you are not programmed the same way.
Just like as a male I can not understand how the majority of women like a male to dominate them, tug on their hair, etc. I don't understand it because I am not a female... But instinctively as an animal you are biologically programmed to respond to this. Like when a male cat bites the back of a female cats neck.
People cheat cause it's awesome. There's no other reason really. Have you ever cheated before? No? Then you don't know how awesome it is. You should cheat yourself and find out. If you have cheated before, don't you remember how awesome it was? It was like having superpowers.
I see the video from www.girlsaskguys.com/.../q2183461-why-don-t-women-place-as-much-importance-on-sex-in-a-relationship
is starting to go viral now on GaG ! :)
Also I think they both cheat to keep things working or they would leave instead.
If it is a sexless marriage, then I would think whoever is denying sex to their partner should expect them to go elsewhere for sex or just break up.
They need to offer it at least once a week (unless they are sick or something, that is an exception).
@Miyumi Why be married only to ignore the other person?
And I never said that was for women only. The guy needs to offer sex to his woman just the same. If you weren't selfish and sexist, you would see that.
You need to understand that sometimes sex, even once a week is impossible. You know that "in sickness and in health" it's sort of a metaphor. It means in good times and bad. If you're going to cheat just because your husband or wife won't fuck you, then you got married for no reason.
Or the wrong reasons.
@QueenBeeJay If someone refuses to be intimate, then they are just housemates. Marriage is more than living in the same house. It is for companionship too.
Anyone that is healthy and just refuses to be intimate with their partner is messed up and deserves what they get in return. People not caring about their partner feeling unloved cause many marriages to fail. I will never get married again anyways. I'm not going to put up with anyone's BS. If they don't show love and affection (among other necessities in a relationship) then I'm gone.
Ignoring the other person and saying: you need to offer at least once a weak or I'm gonna cheat. are two complete different things. The only one ignoring the other person is then the person that cheats. 'Cause if she doesn't give you some, then you ignore her idea's and/or feelings.
You say marriage is companionship? Then you'd leave your companion 'cause they don't always give you everything you want how you want and when you want it? Then you're not a good companion either. And deserve what they get in return? Bro they never cheated on you, you did how is that doing what they did in return?
@Miyumi I've never cheated on anyone in my life. I just end the relationship when the other person only cares about themselves and not me. If they won't give me attention and make me feel like I am cared about, then there is no point in being with her.
There are ways to be intimate without sex. But whatever. No use arguing with someone who's so dead set in their shitty beliefs.
@QueenBeeJay Good point. I'm tired of your shitty beliefs. :)
I think you're just fucking with people. The 'or sick or something' proves you wouldn't really mind even if there wasn't once a week!
@SovereignessofVamps I need physical intimacy to continue to feel close emotionally. Otherwise I feel like the other person doesn't really care about me anymore.
From the way you come off I srsly think you would care... I think some sexless marriages can still have lots of affection.
@SovereignessofVamps I need affection (hugs, holding hands, kissing, cuddling all night while sleeping) almost every day (Again, unless one of us is sick, then I don't want people touching me) I need the sex or making love once a week, but I need the affectionate stuff a lot more often.
makes sense for a 'sexless marriage,' but if the wife is making an effort to be fulfilling and the husband cheats anyway, it's not for the purpose of keeping the marriage together - it's because he simply isn't cut out for monogamy.
It's called being selfish or cake eating. Leaving an unhappy unfulfilled marriage is better than inflicting emotional pain of betraying some one. You just don't cheat on your spouse but you kids and in laws.
@Rissyanne It's hard to define withholding sex though don't you think? If she doesn't want to have sex, or even he doesn't, people have the right to their bods. I'd only say it was withholding if they were just messing with their partner.
I think sexless should be replaced with extremely unhappy. I read that lots of sexless couples are faithful... they say thry are anyway. But otherwise I agree with this.
Men separate sex from feeling. I can easily have sex with a woman that I don't have feelings for at all. Starving a man of sex in a marriage and asking that he remain faithful is a recipe for frustration and anger. I almost cheated because of this. I felt it was my right. If she can't get up for full on sex she should give HJs and BJs to give relief to the guy. If you are too lazy or self centered to not do that then you risk his going elsewhere.
If a guy is dating a girl for 3 months that he loves... and his ex starts messaging him up again even though she has a boyfriend. And he gets confused and tells her he loves her also...
Is this cheating?
Yes.
Yes. Telling another person that he loves her is cheating. Emotional cheating.
Anyone who cheats is just a selfish scum bag ass hole. There's no reason for cheating, it's just to rationalize their bad behavior so they don't have to accept they're a piece of crap person.
It's possible... perhaps cause if there's a divorce the woman is the one that wins XD
Nah. Both genders cheat cuz they're a piece of shit. 🙃😂
Damn straight.
I would agree with this. Men cheat to avoid the cost of a divorce while attempting to make life livable withing their current prison.
Women cheat to find a new man they think will provide them a better life.
The fact of the matter is people all cheat for different reasons, everyone is saying oh your just a selfish piece of shit if you cheat. While I don't agree with cheating you have to understand a lot of times the spouse that cheats was pushed into doing so by the other spouse
Cheating is bullshit. If you made a commitment, stick to it. Otherwise get the fuck out of a relationship. Justifications have no place in lack of integrity.
Cheating really comes down to selfishness. Who became selfish first. Their is not more or less of who does it more than the other sex or reason.
I can't ever imagine being in a sexless marriage, I think women and men who cheat are immature and don't know how to properly communicate between each other
