The Psychology of Cheating: Why Men Cheat And How To Help Them.

Men are somewhat very different from women when it comes to marriage or relationship infidelity and a lot of that difference comes from the fact that men tend to define infidelity rather loosely.

Don’t forget this famous statement: “I did not have sexual relations with that woman.” More generally, most men would say that utilizing porn as a sexual outlet while in a primary, committed relationship is not cheating. (Many women will never agree to this assertion; for proof, heterosexual male readers could just ask their wife or girlfriend what she thinks.)

If you feel that viewing porn or hiding to view Play Boy magazine is bad then I would say that all men are cheats. What about sexting? What if the person you’re sexting is not living anywhere near you and there’s no certainty that you will ever meet the person? How about video chat? While you’re video chatting, I like to ask if you really care if the other person’s cloth is off? How about if you are complaining to this other person about your current relationship? Etc.

I am just wondering why men don’t even feel that doing all the above-mentioned scenes are not part of cheating. But it was not like this during the pre-internet days because then men would only cheat with ladies they have seen and not with abstract individuals.

There are few facts I want to point out today when this topic is concerned and I know some people will attest to this facts. Do you know?
• Almost all Men hate themselves after affairs?.
• Most men don’t just cheat for lack of emotional satisfaction in their marriages?
• Cheaters often get friskier with their wives when affairs begin.
• Over 50% of men that cheat only do that with women they know?
• Most men cheat just to save their marriages?
• Most men are still in love with their wives when they cheat.
The last point sounds like an irony because one may ask; if these cheating men have the happiness in their home then they should not be going outside to meet other women.

Contrary to what many women believe, the reason why men cheat is beyond just having sex with another woman. In fact, it is a mystery but I will list some of the reasons that push most men outside.

1. The first thing that causes a man to cheat is IMMATURITY

2. The feeling of inadequacy, Most men needs words of affirmation but may never say it so some try to cheat and see if their woman will be jealous

3. Some men end up becoming cheats because friends bet some money for a girl

4. Most men love their wife but still tend to cheat when they continuously get sexual frustration from their partner

5. When a man no longer sees those magical sparks from his wife, this is mostly seen when kids start coming in a relationship.

6. Some men cheat because they just want to have a test of another woman. Though this is very rare.

7. Some men cheat because they no longer get the attention and affection from their wife

8. Influence of cheating friends.

The above lists are not exhaustive because there are some underlying influences like; culture and religion etc.
Conclusively, I like you to know that it is possible to stay faithful in your relationship and not cheat but this is only possible when you are determined enough to have a better home.
