Can't communicate with their partner.
Incapable of being loyal in that sense.
Too selfish and self centered to care about the feeling of someone they have taken vows with or made other commitments with.
Boredom.
Fear of losing 'it'-one's looks or charm.
Conquests.
Can't help themselves (nymphs).
Other addictions.
And the list goes on.
This was fun- Thanks! |

They just aren't getting what they want out of their marriage/relationship. Sadly too many want more than they deserve. |

Availability and Convenience.
When men and women make themselves available to one another it's open season for cheating.
And when it's convenient, when you know you can get it, it's a ego thing. oh goodness and don't let it be good, then you're going back to get it again. |

If a person can't or descides they don't want to take care of the persons needs that they are with.... then at some point and time, either someone will come along that will or the person will start looking for someone that will..... If a persons needs are being "really" taken care of... they have no reason to look or want it somewhere else.... Ya don't take care of what you got,,,and it leaves.... blame it all on them.... yea, right |

Some couples cheat because they get bored with each other. They think the grass is greener on the other side and most times it's not. |

People change and their needs change too. So when couples can't adapt to those changes they usually seek out someone who may be more their type. Think about what couples go thru during a lifetime. When one partner, or both, cannot give the other room to grow as time goes on, the marriage gets stale. You each need to be a self sufficient and have the ability to adapt to the other. Everyone needs a little space as well as time together. It's all about balance. |

The excitement of the unknown. Most of these relationships don't last, but another one is just around the corner. For most, it is the attention that is received which makes it alluring. As with many relationships, that allure does not last forever. |

I've known both men and women who cheat, and each was a little different. I think if there was any one reason, I'd write a book and be rich. |

selfishness. Men and women tend to be selfish |

Giving up on making their marriage work accompanied by selfishness and blame shifting leads to (in that person's mind) being justified in cheating. |

This question is #1 on this site......it has been posted by so many people... I really don't think there is a reason.....I don't think there should be one....I have been there and cheated and my reason was I did not love her and I wanted more out of life....Sometimes we think what we have is going to last forever but sometimes they turn out not being the person you marry... My advice is wait until you are older and more mature so you don't wonder your eyes away from the one you married... Another reason is the person you married changes as soon as you say I do...So if you plan on getting married make sure you are who you say you are... Don't change on them be honest and be the person you are and don't pretend to be who they want you to be....Honesty is the best policy |

I think this was covered in The Chappelle Show in Ask a Black Dude already. I believe that's referred as Bigome or Bigger then me, but people want too much, and STDs are no joke, need to be cautious, sense lucky you be in nothing shows, then again do you know really that your clean? |
