Why do women sometimes stay with men who aren't faithful?

Answer 1

Women are insecure creatures. I am one of them. If we are not told that we are pretty or that we smell good we litterally flip. Men are sweet talkers and we buy into it, as long as they make us feel wanted we will stay right there

Answer 2

Cheating is not the end of the world. It happens...it is natures way. We are all hard wired to cheat...some overcome it and some don't want to. It is becoming more common...just look at the stats. So the real questiong is how will you deal with cheating...yours or his/hers. You can walk away, stay and fight, or figure out something that will answer both of your wants and needs. But that will be harder and take open and honest communication.

As for why do women stay with them. Have you evey heard the saying that all the good ones are either married or gay? We, then you had better stick with what you have and work on it, because there aren't many good one left.

Answer 3

Low self esteem. They think that is the best they can do. Most of these women have been made to feel they can't do any better. They need to take a leap of faith and move on. There are good faithful men in the world.

Answer 4

all i have to say is for the ppl that this has not happened to; you have no right to stereotype women when you've never been through that expierence. I talked the same crap about how if my husband ever cheated i would be gone and the women that stay with men who cheat are dumb. I'm an idiot for ever saying that because now that i've expierenced it it is a different story and feeling.... I want to clear something up right now though, i DO NOT have low self esteem i love myself and i'm very happy with the way i look!! i have been told by many ppl that know my husband and i that he is the biggest idiot they know and they can't believe he would do that to me and that they only wished they could fill his shoes.... so apparently i'm not low self esteemed.... the reason for why i stay?? well i haven't quite made up my mind yet whether i'm truely going to stay but while i'm sitting here while he's on deployment i'm weighing everything and everything i've put into this 7 yr marriage... I love him, i want to give him a chance, i know he loves me (no doubts), we have two kids that Love him very much and he is very good with, financial stablity right now is the best for my kids and i to stay... and the list goes on, but i am by no means "stupid" or have "low self-esteem" so before ppl go judging others don't talk crap about something you've never expierenced before until you do.

Answer 5

Reasons vary. Sometimes they really do love the guy and hope they'll change. Others could include fear of being alone, the kids not having a dad around, fear that she can't make it financially on her own, or guilt. Some women think if they were just a little better to their men, the guy wouldn't have gone out on her.

Answer 6

they fear the future, the unknown, they have no self worth, or pride. often times they have faith and hope that the cheating will stop. could also be for economic reasons, sometimes women blame themselves for the problem instead of laying blame where it belongs.they often fear abandonment of the familiar. also one reason is that they don't have the skills they need to confront. sometime in their childhood they were stopped by parents from having any idea's of their own, they weren't allowed to have a say about anything.

Answer 7

i have no idea my boyfriend cheated on me about m8 months ago and it broke my heart, but yet I'm still with him. i guess us woman love to believe the bad boys will change for our love. Now i may sound stupid but i trust him again, it took him a lot of work to prove he was a changed man. I know from the outside i look weak and pathetic for taking him back, but i have one thing many don't : faith and hope in him. And if you truly love someone you can learn to forgive.
Plus i saw the ***** he cheated on me with and she wasn't half i catch that im so i know it was a mistake.
