Because if we were always content with where we are at the moment, we would never even get out of bed. People always strive for something they perceive to be "better". "Good" is often just not good enough.

It is the nature of some to want that which they don't have. For others it's not that they think it's greener it just provides some variety. In some cases through lack of effort by one or both the grass on their side begins to die out.

well, i guess sometimes it is? once you get some of that better grass on the other side, you are spoiled. so you keep crossing fences until you mess up and get some bad grass. you go back or stay with your good thing. guess you could say you mature and learn to stick with a good thing. quit crossing over and stick at some point is what the wise cow does.

Because some people would rather lie to themselves than to face reality. They usually discover that the grass only looked greener.
They discover this after they hurt everyone else.

If you are doing terrible in life, but you try harder to make it better, then your life will probably get better, hence -- the grass is greener on the other side!

It is human nature to explore and want to know what the other side has to offer. We get complacent in our relationships and when someone else walks onto the plank - we want to explore their life also. That is one reason that it is so important that people date and have fun before they make decisions to settle down. Sometimes the grass just might have more "fertilizer' on it - (s.....)

I guess because some people long for a different life...With all of the celebrity stories, all the troops out there that had families, and the sadness we experience as humans, people think that other lives would be better.

Perhaps they hate it on their side of the fence...
