because they are built on selfishness and lies and that is a poor foundation to build a relationship. Also, it is exciting to do something you shouldn't be doing. The thrill of wondering whether you not you will get caught that eventually disappears often takes the thrill of the romance along with it. A third reason is that when people get caught up in these affairs, they are concentrating on what is NOT working with their spouse. When they end up with the other person or divorce their spouse, they remember all the things that DID work. This causes them to look at what's not working with the one they are having an affair with and realize that they are not all that great.

Because it's a "you always want what you can't have" theory. Once you end up with that person you cheated with, the relationship will soon lose it's appeal because you finally have them and the drudgery of real life will soon set in. Sooner or later they are going to be wanting that same "thrill" again and will go out looking for someone else. That's why they say the grass looks greener on the other side but once you're there, you find out it's the same kind of grass on your yard.

Extra marital affairs are the products of unhappy marriages. They might be a distraction or fulfill an unmet need, but ultimately they don't solve the problem.

Take it from me: not all relationships that start that way turn out bad. I spent 6 years in a bad relationship with a controlling, emotionally unstable man. Once I finally decided I had had enough, it took 6 more months to extract myself from him. In the meantime, I started sleeping with a friend. Three years later, we are still together and in love like never before.
I wasnt just trying to get my rocks off, I think the cheating actually started out as a means of escape from a bad relationship.

After the "honeymoon phase" is over and reality settles in, couples don't want to have to deal with the practical day-in-day-out issues of life. Its too much work, especially when you have a husband or wife and kids at home. They were only in it for the "adrenalin rush" that comes from sneaking around, meeting in hotel rooms. blah blah blah.

At least one of the people haveing the affair is CHEATING . If they will cheat once then they will do it again. I never date a woman that is divorced because she cheated on her former husband.

1. What goes around comes around.
2. Cast your bread upon the waters and they will come back to you.
3. Do unto others as you would have them do unto you.

I think it is because they are not based on love. They are based on excitement and physical attraction. Those things will fade with time, but love gets stronger.

Maybe guilt finally comes into their conscience.
