Why do men cheat?

Question

I've gone through this a few times in my 24 years of being alive...men constantly cheat on me! Why is that? I do everything right...I'm very attractive...and i'm not one of those jealous girls that constantly stalks her man. So what am I or have I been doing wrong?

I've never cheated on a mate by the way...

I've never cheated on a mate and I don't go looking for men that cheat on me...nor have I gone into a relationship EXPECTING to be cheated on!

Answer 1

I'd say you might be picking the wrong guys. Take a close look at the guys you've been close to, and see what they have in common, and try dating outside your "type."

Answer 2

They say about 60% of men, and 40% of women cheat.

With numbers like these, I suspect that many are not really hardwired for monogamy. That said, society does have culturally enforced notions that you can only be with one person at a time.

I am not monogamous. I've never been. I can't stand the idea of running around or lying, so I'm up front and honest about this in me. I also have no problem with anyone I'm dating sleeping or having relationships with others.

My wife, of thirty years, has always had my permission to be with anyone she wishes or have as many relationships as she desires, as long as she's up front about it. The same goes with me, though she does have veto power, which gives her some piece of mind. This is called polyamory.

I've had people who I knew cheated on their spouse claim that what I was doing was worse, because I was open and honest about it. I've lost friends whom I came out to about it.

All men aren't the same. You shouldn't go in a relationship expecting to get the same results in each one. Some men may like his girl to care a lot, and others don't. Maybe you should see how the next guy feels about your relationship with him before making an assumption of what he wants and expects.

Answer 4

I think an interesting question is:
Why do guys you date keep cheating on you?

Ever notice that most people who have been cheated on have been cheated on several times. The rest of us never. Why? Maybe there is something in common to people who will cheat that you find attractive?
I bet you only date "cool" guys. Those same cool guys are also arrogant jerks who only care about themselves. For some reason, women love these guys.
Same for men who seem to find cheating women over and over. I don't know why it happens, but it does.

Answer 5

Men cheat because they can. Their problem is they constantly get caught. And just because you're attractive and faithful does not mean he will not cheat. You're not doing anything wrong. You just keep meeting guys that aren't ready to committ. You gotta do a better job of weeding them out!

Answer 6

Some men are just dumb that way. Find yourself another man. If you want people to be good and loyal to you, you should be loyal and good back to them. What goes around comes around. Do unto others as you would like to do unto you.

Answer 7

the way i've always felt is y be exclusive to one person if you don't see your self marrying them. Life is too short to just be with one person if you don't love them.
(i've found that girl now and we've been together for over a year)

Answer 8

It's difficult to find good people. Hold on to them if you get them, whether it is a friend, boyfriend/husband, ... and remain good yourself. Don't compromise your integrity, even though others have against you.

Answer 9

why do women cheat the same reason men cheat.

Answer 10

looks like you are attracted to the wrong people...try dating someone you woulnd't normally be your type!
