I need to know whats the point? Why do guys and girls do it? Does it make them feel powerful? Or do their mates think they are cool? Personally, i have never cheated, and proud about that. But every single relationship i've been in, i've been cheated on - and i dont see the point, yet it happens so much!

Also, 70% of my friends have been cheated on (or cheated but thats beside the point..) and still want to go back to their boyfriend or girlfriend. I know i've done this once, but dont know why i wanted them so bad - and i need another answer then just plain old inlove!

I don't know why people cheat. I think they don't want to face their feelings or what might be wrong so they take a sneaky way.

Cheating is a selfish pathology.

You will never understand the psychosis surrounding people who cheat just as you will never understand why people commit crime (pedophilia, robbery, murder, etc) or live an amoral life.

Cheating is a hole within someone that is usually never filled. Cheaters rarely offer a viable reason. It falls in one of two categories: they are too weak to break up or divorce their partner if things are not right in their relationship (selfish and immature) or they are outwardly selfish and believe that can have both.

Serial cheaters should never get in a committed relationship.

People cheat for some of these reasons: Not satisfied with their relationship; not getting enough attention; finding other qualities they like in another woman/man that are not in their partner; doesn't want to be with just one person or is not a "relationship" sort of person...and so on. Being cheated on is really not cool. It just boils down to finding someone that is ready for a committed relationship...someone that accepts all of their partner and not look for satisfaction elsewhere. It's life. It happens. It sucks. But happiness will come.

Because cheaters are dumb@sses

because weman are ivil

This is completed and I don't have a short answer for you. Let's just say that it's largely part of our genetic make up and that both men and women have mating strategies that have evolution has programed into us in order to give the next generation the best odds at surviving. If you really want the whole story shoot me an email.

Awwwwwwwwwwwwww the question there is no right answer for for some it is just because they can who knows...........

All I know is anyone who cheats is a piece of schit & it's one of the worst things that you can do someone that claims to love you!

I have learned that men cheat for different..it doesn't matter how honest,pretty,nice,sweet,caring,faithful,
hard working etc etc etc their current girlfriend or wife is..there are millions of women who aren't them soooooooooo..they cheat.

I might just wear a Patriot's jersey because of that comment! Can I wear my Viking thong at the same time?

every time she gets up I switch scrabble pieces

she is smarter than me and its the only way I can ever win

You two are simply delicioius!

I am sorry, normally I agree withwhat yo uhave to say, but not for one second do I, nor CAN I, agree with the basis that mankind (man AND woman) is nothing other than an immoral and unthinking animal.
Yes, thchnically we are animals, but we are far removed from, and much more moralistically developed than even our closest competitors, the apes. We KNOW, what is right and wrong. Putting aside religious dogma fr the moment, in regards to one husband one wife, we KNOW that humans expect to be in a one on one relationship, not one on two or two on three, etc. We also know that when someone finds out they are NOT in such a relationship then this person is very very seriously hurt and crushed.

So no, it has nothing at all to do with our "genetic makeup". We still have the power to say no. The problem lies in society as a rule. when society started accepting into it the thoughts of divorce being allowable, it allowed all other kinds of relationship troubles to enter in as well.
Society also teaches the youth that it is ok to not work towards bettering what you alread have, but to go looking for something that comes already better.

it boils down to one word.


MORALS!!!

As the saying go's..once a cheat always a cheat..ask lots of questions, usually you can find signs way before...I run like heck.Usually people cheat because they can't communicate to there other, somethings missing, needs fixing, etc etc

because they are selfish...and they have no shame or remorse. that is one class of people that i have no respect for.

It is a learned behavior. One or both parents cheat and set the example that it is just something people do which is baloney because a lot of people do not cheat.

Cheating and having and affair is easier and more exciteing than making and existing relationship vibrant.

Someone to cheat with is always available.

Some people want a public spouse that possibly is socially acceptable or at least what the family wants and then one they are attracted too.

Often there are hidden drug and alcohol problems.

Immaturity from the feeling that they have to be the center of the universe like they often feel at the beginning of an affair.

Many think that they are only hurting the spouse and don't care that they are hurt. Some actually see the kids as on one side or the other.

They have cheated in the past so they are expected to cheat again so little motivation to stop.

The feeling that the person they are with does not really love them and they are a screw up overall so why worry about cheating.

Bottom line it is messed up thinking that hurts everyone.

greed/lack of communication (tellin the other what you really need/like).they come back to their partners because they are the old "reliable" and a certain comfort level for them...most of the time because they know you'll take them back...far as im concerned they are all a§§holes...
