why men/women cheat?

I often encounter stories about this, but before this happens, they would say that they were so in love during the early stage of their relationship, its like that they cant live without the other. But why all of the sudden wind change and either the man or the woman have a change of heart, and either of them are eyeing or seeing someone else while in their current relationship? I just cant get the logic of this situation. One is keeping their current partner but longing for someone else.

In a relationship when it's fresh meaning at the beginning everything always go so well and you feel like you both are meant to be and are in love, lets say 6 months or a year later things start changing the change is always one of the partners fault, from my experience the guys always start acting weird a few months after the relationship its like they aren't interested anymore and you find out secrets that they have been cheating. I guess people who cheat are not really committed they just use wanting a relationship to use women.

i agree, because sometimes are into relationship because of peer pressure, they tend to prove something to their peers by getting a girls heart. So sad!

Ah, there are a lot of reasons why men and women cheat. Id say we all know that they could think of many other reasons of course. But maybe the main reason is that they are just polygamous

I asked myself this question too and I can';t find a logical explanation for it. I don't see why, when you hate spending time with the other person and you find someone that keeps you happy why do you stay wuth the first person? why don';t you simply end it and make the other relationship offical

Maybe being married with someone and staying with him is just more comfortable than breaking up with him and then being with someone else. Hmmm...it reminds me a reality series called "cheaters" . I couldn't believe how many lies and cheating people can do to cheat their partners. There are many reasons for cheating , some of them are because of the cheated partner , some ofthem are because of the cheating partner. No matter what the partner do , staying with the cheating partner is the worst thing to do : The cheated partner can develope hate and anger , taking it out often for tiny reasons. The best thing to do is to try and figure out why the partner cheats and solve the problem with him , privately without involving the kids.

I do think people can fall out of love, and it's usually because of the neglect of either one. There are a multitude of reasons, such as not having as much time together, a change in appearance or character, or simply just finding someone better. Everyone knows the right thing to do is to break up, but I guess with cheating you give yourself a false sense of security in a way that you can always go back to your partner, and there's also the thrill of it I suppose.

Men and woman cheat for a lot of reasons! Revenge, a lovless marriage, a sexless marriage, they want the ckae and eat it too! A person just doesn't care. They think they can get away from with it. Getting the other person's attention does happen,too. I know there are more reason's why what I listed are just some of them!

I think it's machismo in men. men who are already in a steady relationship cheat to show their virility. I've heard of men who cheat saying it's not their fault they are so attractive to other women. I don't know why but there are women who seem to like flirting with men in relationships. As for women who cheat, I guess they think the grass is greener on the other side. When problems in relationships arise, they tend to find an escape.

They cheat because they are not contented.People don't contented,and that is natural to them.
