What is your opinion on this? Or what do you think are some main things in a relationship that may cause someone to cheat, even if they are in love with the person they are currently with?

Been the person to be cheated on and also a person who has cheated on someone. To be honest, I think the root of it all is due to one's selfishness. They put their own need before the needs of others and immediate gratification seems more important. I mean there is a world of reasons beyond this like someone getting revenge on a cheating spouse, someone just being drunk (and everyone says this is no excuse and I don't think its justified but people's inhibitions are lowered to an extent), not getting what they need physically or emotionally from the current relationship and once again seeking immediate gratification to boost their own selfesteem rather then just work on the relationship or leave, and then there are others who are just complete idiots. When push comes to shove it is the cheater thinking solely of themselves and being selfish and immature. Cheating is never justified in the extent of finding instant gratification or outside fullfillment at the expense of severely damaging others feelings and most likely causing a great amount of baggage ranging from trust issues to low self-esteem. I think in our society, with things like the media and such cheating has become more excusable and as much as I hate to say it quite frequent (unless past generations were just better at hiding it to meet the social stigmas of the time). I don't know but like I said being on both sides of this horrible and disgusting continuum, I have learned my lesson and I hope that if there are others who are doing this to someone, that they also get whats coming to them and eventually learn their lesson.

I believe it is a lack of communication that ends up happening in relationships. A slow down in the romance department & the longer we are with our partners the more they & we tend to take eachother for granted. We forget the I love you's, the compliments. We forget to do all the little things that made us so happy in the beginning. Therefore we go out looking for what we lack at home.

The feeling of unappreciation. You know that song by Cherish, Unappreciated? Explains everything. A person feeling like that will do anything for a little attention.

Men its mainly just to have more sex, its in our nature, usually is just for a momentary pleasure

Women on the other hand usually cheat because they feel somehting is missing in their relationships, they do it on a more sentimental level.

Me, I am just one horny SOB

They may love the person that they are with but they do not love themselves.
