Why is it that people cheat on thier partners?

Question

i know of so many people who have either cheated or been cheated on. but i dont understand it. can anyone really explain why people do it?

Answer 1

Most people are dumb, stupid animals.

I've been cheated on, and it sucked. (She never loved me; I was just a dildo with a pulse.)

Answer 2

Being cheated on or doing the cheating could mean many reasons. One that beats them all is if they cheated then they really didn't care about that other person.
If you're in a relationship why would you want to cheat if you truely loved that other person. Cheating is selfish.

Answer 3

There are hundreds of reasons but none would make any sense. I really believe that once a person cheats then it's over. There's nothing to talk about or work out. The trust is gone and there's nothing left.

Answer 4

There are several answers to these...the main one being lack or bad communication. Sometimes we think that we know our partners but in real sense we don't. See........sometimes we interpret conversations/actions the wrong way or the right way but there is a misunderstanding which leads to arguments, fights and in turn no peace in the relationship and finally cheating. I can go on and on and give you plenty of examples but In short....it all start with COMMUNICATION.

Answer 5

I personally have never been nor will I cheat.
Some use the whole men are like animals and need to roam theory but its crap. Men and Women cheat because they are not totally satisfied with their partners and do not have high morals or any at all and will sleep with the first person who pays attention to them.

Answer 6

They aren't ready for a monogamous relationship, they like the hunt or excitement of someone new, they feel dissatisfied with their current relationship...other than that, I don't know.
