human beings crave attention. if their spouse is not showing it to them, they look elsewhere and end up in a bad spot sometimes. ive done that once. i cheated and felt so horrible that i had to tell him. he was upset of course. but when i told him why, he appologized and started to pay me more attention. well that didnt last long cuz we are getting divorced. LOL!!

I think it depends on the person and the situaton. Its hard to generalize for everyone. If a spouse if feeling neglected and unloved because their husband - or wife - doesn't want to have s*x or be affectionate and they are caught up in work or online gaming and never has anything to say - even the most confident person who normally is happy and feels good about themselves might find themselves wanting to stray.
Sometimes a person wants to end it and this is how they choose to do it. Cowardly perhaps.
Yes, in some situations its something in the person, but more often, it speaks of an unhappy relationship.
I feel, if one is unhappy, they should voice it - perhaps more then once - in a calm manner and if the other has no interest in making a change in the relationships they should leave before cheating. Because to me cheating is being dishonest to vows which is unfair to your current spouse, yourself and any future relationships you may have.

Relationship is based on committment and responsibility ... there is no reason to get bored ... if someone feels that they are bored and use it as a escuse then they are actually findng something to blame.
there is a solution for bore ... you should try to make an afford to recreate the romance ... start having fun with the one you already have
there is no reason to end any relationship for too boring or insecurity..
cheers

I think it is because they so unhappy with the relationship but are not sure how to get out of it maybe because they lack the confidence I'm not really sure. But I think it sometimes gives people the needed strength to get out of bad relationships!
