Why do married women think their husband will never cheat?

Sully	yeah i decided not to get married... but i want kids so i'm getting artificially inseminated. wat do you need a guy for? some men NEVER do cheat but they ARE going to look whether they like it or not. i think a woman is stupid when she takes him back

MONEY72	honey who says married women think that there husbands don't cheat?? deep down in the gut of every women married or not they will always think there significant other is cheating.... EDIT: i don't understand why people give thumbs down for MY OPINION, if you are going to criticize, then don't participate..haters!!

Violet Pearl	Eh. Mine would never cheat. His need are more than taken care of at home, he's loved, respected, admired, and treated like gold. He's a good man with morals character and self respect. That combination- treating a man with morals like a king- means he'd never stray. Besides, he likes himself too much to lower himself to a lying cheater. He's better than that.

Nita R	because not all married men are like that. some of them actually have some self respect and respect for their wives and children. you should probably find a new hangout spot.

Notfallin	there are many slimeballs out there for sure but not all men cheat.....I think that if you are married your man should not be in bars for one that would stop a lot of cheating! many people just have no morals it is sad

*â™¥Beauty is painâ™¥*	You've just run into the bad ones. There is the exception to every rule, my husband is the exception...including a whole buncha others I'm sure.

TMB	If you are not a cheater than you feel that your souse isn't one either. If you are being cheated on a good sign is if the spouse is always accusing the other of cheating because of his/her guilty conscience.

pura_rosa	Not all are, I am not, I know that people (not only men) are prone toc heating however there are a few that are faithful, the problem is finding the good ones and THAT ladies is the hard part!

Ari	because we are in denial and we want to think that we married the perfect guy for us, and becasue they got married to us, so we like to believe that they wont cheat.

6@5^&%	they are stupid because I have been married for 3 years and I don't put nothing pass a man . . .as for as my husband I don't trust nobody but myself . . everybody cheat one way or another.

momof8	It is not being naive, it is called trust. I know that my husband would never cheat on me with anyone. I don't care if she was the most beautiful woman in the world and throwing herself at him; he would walk away.

jude	they are in denial, they get into a false sense of security especially if their husband of many years has never given them reason to believe it could happen to them. anyone is capable of cheating at any time.

â™¦â™£â™£!	I THINK FOR MY SITAUTION ITS THE OPPOSITE...MY SISTER AND I ARE THE ONLY ONE THAT KNOWS MY MOM IS CHEATING ON MY DAD! I FEEL SAD WHEN MY DAD KISSES HER KNOWING THAT MY MOM WAS SLEEPING WITH ANOTHER MAN! MY LIFE HAS BEEN SOO HARD MY MOM IS JUST A MEAN MOTHER AND I DONT KNOW WHY I ACT LIKE I DONT KNOW WHAT SHE'S DOING! SORRY FOR THE LONG ANSWER I JUST HAD TO TAKE IT OUT OF MY SYSTEM!

kidfree	Those men are not happily married if they are hitting on you. I KNOW that my husband will never cheat on me because he gets everything (and I mean everything) he needs at home without the possibility of getting an STD. The only person he flirts with is ME.

Yvette	Not married. But if I were to get married I would hope to go into it with a postive attitude. I wouldn't marry someone I had even the slightest doubts about. I would marry a decent and mature man. Not all man are perverted little brats that have affairs.

Erik N	have you looked at the type of guys that are married and hitting on you. they most likely are @$$holes. there are other guys out there that wouldnt even think about cheating, so please... stop stereotyping and grouping everyone together when only a few are bad apples.

Brouhaha	I don't think, I KNOW my husband would never cheat. How would you know that these men are so "happily" married...nobody looking in can see what really happens in a marriage..even if the husband or wife tells you that they are super happy. Oh, and good job...that is quite the accomplishment.

Ro	For the same reason that many married me think their wives won't cheat. Ever hear the expression, "blinded by love"? If you go into marriage expecting your spouse to cheat, you wouldn't get married or be in that relationship.

lanisha G	married women are so caught up with the thought that there spouse will never cheat because they fell as though the ring on their finger entitles them to their man. but the truth is that men will be men and it's almost impossible to keep him completely under your roof. it's not that they are naive it's just that they want to know that they have love to come home to no matter what life comes. not all men cheat so you shouldn't take on that mind frame

ChocolateCupcake	There are men out there who wuld never cheat. My father was one, and I hope my husband is another. I say I hope, because I don't think it's ever good to get overly confident about it. When you do, you end up relaxing too much and letting yourself and other things go. I think it's important to trust your mate, but at the same time, you don't want to be too naive.

JadeyOz	Because living in a fantasy world is how they married in the 1st place Cinderella , Sleeping Beauty , Snow White , Fiona all got their prince Charming (ok so Shrek aint exactly prince charming but come on who would you choose the ogre or the gay overly spoilt brat of a flying wombat?) . If you believe the fairy tale wedding will happen and you'll get your magical castle , the perfect kids and money and everything that comes with the fairy tale you'll believe anything. It doesnt matter how many times you say come on girl remove the rose coloured glasses something aint right here they will still continue to believe it could never happen to them and when it does well yeah the evil step mother's mirror shattered into more then a thousand shards in the end.

Curious	I'm split on this. I believe my husband wouldn't go out looking for it. We do everything together and have a blast. We have 3 kids and he's little league coach and neither one of us want to wreck our family. Now for the reason I'm split. We went out last weekend with a group and were at a bar and grill. We sat guys with guys and girls with girls. He was approached by a single women who was PERSISTENT. He told her he was married. Even after that She sent a drink to him while I was there. Women are aggressive. We laugh about it here but truthfully if your husband is a bar goer (which thankfully mine is not) there is temptation there that they may not even be looking for and it comes on STRONG!

Jenny R	I don't think that women are naive, and just because a man hits on your doesn't mean he is going to sleep with you. There is never any guarantee that someone wont cheat man or woman we just have faith in those that we choose to spend our lives with. I think you have a fear of marriage so you are letting this get to you. You need to look deep into your heart and think about what is really scaring you marriage. There is no guarantees in life we just have to live and what comes will come.

Sara	Women are trusting to their partners and assume they wouldnt cheat on them. Every woman out there that thing that... WRONG!!! Remember, we the females are more mature than the oppisite gender! Men are animals! We the females WILL rule the world! Go females! MUHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!! â™¥â™¥â™¥â™¥â™¥â™¥â™¥â™¥â™¥â™¥â™¥â™¥â™¥â™¥â™¥â™¥â™¥â™¥â™¥ ~:{Skittles-Taste the Rainbow}:~

sapphire	Im NOT naive i just know my husband...We have been happily married 17 yrs and i know he would never cheat cause he is a good decent man,a great husband,is devoted to me and our marriage,loves me more then anything and would never do anything to hurt me or our marriage plus i know his views on cheating...We have been thru a lot together in 17 yrs and i know he would never do anything to ruin what we have together..

Stacey I	I hear ya all the way. I've bar tended for about 6 years and so many married men would hit on me or other women in the bar. It's ashame though because the next night, the man would be in my bar with his wife. The wife would sit there and think she has the best man and he would never cheat. I think it's the old saying "It will never happen to me". I also think a lot of women are caddy, especially around other women. They try to have a competition or something as to who has the best husband/relationship. I call those women "Camera Girls". They try to act like every things perfect while around friends or out in public. All men aren't that way though. I see a lot of cheating wives, too and their men think their wife would never cheat.

lotus_elise_81	It's not naivety, it's trust. If you don't trust your partner, then you can't have a relationship with them. the mistrust and constant wondering and jealousy would eat you up from the inside and destroy the relationship anyway. Ergo, it is a prerequisite to a happy marriage that you believe your partner WON'T cheat. Would you marry someone in the first place if you thought he would cheat on you? I should note that it works the other way, too - married men believe their partners won't cheat on them, either, and women are just as guilty. Apparently something like 60% of people cheat, and that is comprised of men and women. The other reason people believe their spouse won't cheat is because they promised they wouldn't - that's what marriage is, the union of two people to the exclusion of all others. The better question is, not why are women so naive, but why are so many people so immoral, heartless and cruel to someone they supposedly love so much that they would put that person through this humilating, agonising and traumatic experience?

Tired and Cranky	It's not that women are naive it's just that when you take a vow and enter into marriage you do it because your trust in your husband and your life together... I don't think my husband would ever cheat and it doesn't make me naive it makes me confident in my marriage....... besides I know A LOT of married people who have never cheated you can't always assume that everyone is going to cheat because not everyone is deceitful.
