Search Results: surprising your man

According to a recent study, a married man is about as likely to cheat on his wife as he is to experience a flight delay.

Really?

I'll admit I was a bit surprised, seeing as my flights seem to get delayed 50% of the time. Am I just unlucky? Doesn't that sound like an unbelievably high number of males who cheat in a relationship?

And what about women? Based on studies I've read in the past, it seems like women are around half as likely to cheat as men. (Or maybe the ladies are just more sneaky about it...)

I'm sure if I Googled (which I automatically do with anything I'm curious about) I could find plenty of studies, but I don't want to turn this into a scientific debate. Of course, I'm curious about other factors, such as age range, age difference between a couple, how long a couple has been together, sexual preference, maybe even career choices... I know for sure that finance influences the likelihood of cheating. There are tons of studies about that one.

I am curious to know, within this online community, how many of you have cheated (which is why I'm including a poll! Yay!) To make it more accurate, I'm choosing to include anonymous users (because some people might not want to admit it even if their personal information isn't in their profile).

I do want to be clear — this isn't a judgy thing. Obviously, cheating isn't the best thing in the world, but it's also not the worst. People make mistakes. That means keep it clean in the comments! Be honest, of course, but let's not resort to name-calling or anything like that. (I mean, we're all mature, right? Sort of. I don't know. Maybe.)
