Why do men cheat? Because we freaking let them! Hmmmm……………..I don't buy that! That would be like saying the reason women don't want to be sexually active in a relationship is because men freaking let them! I don't believe in cheating and I don't believe in quitting and I certainly don't believe in rape. So where does that leave those of us who have a partner who is just not interested in sex? Even if we had a law on the books saying one partner can't force another partner to be celebate, that doesn't do anything to increase interest……..and the only thing worst than no sex is having sex with a person who just lays there looking at the ceiling telling you it needs to be painted! The last time my other half was willing to have sex was the last Friday in Feb of 2002…………and that was a "hurry up and get it over with" event. I'm a nice guy and I try hard, and I feel like I'm being used. I haven't cheated but I'm at the point where I'd like to if for no other reason than my own mental health…………..but I keep hearing my father's voice saying, "I expect you to be a straight arrow." I think it's time to go see the "ist"……the "ist" won't be able to help the problem on the home-front, my other half tells me to get over it, but perhaps I'll be able to find out how I hooked up with the wrong person. To my father I say, "Dad, I have gone above and beyond the call of duty."

Well, even Allen Ginsburg said that the idea of monogamy terrified him. But for monogamous couples I think articulation is important. But even if a man escapes the seven year itch…he still has to deal with the reality of "eating ashes" when he reaches his early thirties and experiences "eating ashes" and/or "hero death". This is a time when he begins to look at his life and what he is becoming as if time is passing him by and he is longing for the earlier days in his pristine life of his "stomping grounds" when he may or may not have had casual sexual encounters. He may think that picking someone up for casual sex will somehow rejuvenate him and prove to him, that inspite of maturing through hero death years, there still is hope that his youth and best physical attributes are not wasting away. He in fact, in lue of "hero death" seeks to save himself by becoming his own hero.

when you're married and heavily invested in that marriage, for reasons other than "love": financial, house, kids, shared social circles, it is not easy to just wake up one day and say lets end it. Lives can be ruined. And if you're trapped in a sexless marriage, it is hard to see a way out. Cheating provides a way out, although by US standards it's pretty sleazy, but in the long view, it certainly can be a "pressure valve" that allows the marriage to continue, along with all the positive aspects it entails. The US is so puritan in its sexual mores. The Europeans are way ahead of us in this regard, and view mistresses and affairs as just a trivial part of life. whereas the US views this as a national scandal – Monica Lewinsky anyone?

Look at how painful the McCartney divorce was.

Men and women cheat for all kinds of reasons. The only thing you really need to know is whether someone has cheated on you. If so, boot them out of your life. No second chances, no kidding.

Obviously, you haven't been in a long term relationship — may factors and variables exist to be together — friends, family, expectations, the bliss of a new person, etc.

I divorced, and it was the best thing…after 8 years together, we didn't compliment eachother, had different goals by that time, grew apart, etc.

I didn't cheat, we just woke up one morning, had breaksfast, and I said, "Are you up for the big D?"

That was that — now I can go to concerts (VIP style), play pool for money, Sundays are my Fantasy Football time, drink on a Friday AND Saturday, meet lots of lovely ladies, go swimming at 3am, make my meals, ride my ride, hike ANYTIME I want, smoke a cigar! Drink WHOLE milk, get up when I want, have the WHOLE bed to myself, my own alarm clock, get out of the house, with out having to excuse myself, eat out where and what I like, go to a baseball game — OMG my life is sweet!

Of course, in the future, when I find someone to compliment my oddities and lifestyle then — BOOM, I'll call her girl friend…but for now — It's my time

I have always thought that cheating was definitely a symptom of a problem, and not just the problem itself, but honestly? I don't buy this "unappreciated" crap… If you feel there's a problem, you use your words.

Here was me thinking that women cheated more than men….. XD

Shouldn't we be asking why anyone cheats, not just "them!"….? maybe? no?
