Why Women Cheat…According to Men
What’s good for the gander is good for the goose, right? That is what people say, and I suppose people can say that in regards to relationships and cheating. Usually there is much discussion about why men cheat and what women can do to prevent this, but when the shoe is on the other foot things can be a bit interesting. Well at least according to what some men think. Below you will find some comments from a survey conducted, and I am sure you will find them…interesting:
1) Women cheat because they are missing out on other people treating them better.
2) Some women cheat because they like variety. ”Variety is the spice of life”.
3) Women cheat because they don’t see the value in the men they have at home, but they like the fact that they still have someone around.
4) Some women cheat in order to feel appreciated or get the attention they need.
5) Often when a woman cheats it is because she doesn’t feel sexually desired.
6) Some women cheat because they are unhappy and want to break up, but they don’t want to break up because they don’t want to be the “bad guy”.
7) Women cheat because they think they are getting more of a man then what they are actually getting. For example, a woman is courted a certain way but after a while that stops and things change, she feels played and so she cheats.
8) Women cheat because they are not honest with themselves about whether or not they are settling or whether or not they believe this will be their last chance at a “good thing”.
9) Women cheat because they are under no obligation to the person since they are not married.
10) Some cheat because they are either bored or they want to beat their guys to the punch since they are convinced their guys are secretly plotting to cheat
11) Women really don't have any obligation to be faithful to someone that they’re not married to at that point
12) One brother had a bit to say, and I think he provides some added insight: I believe that a lack of intimacy/attention, and being taken for granted are the reasons why women cheat. We men often feel that intimacy is when we have sex with a woman, but it goes deeper than that. We ignore her to the point that sometimes we give her no other choice but to turn to someone else or leave because we have not fulfilled that need that a man should have been able to fulfill.
Now, obviously this list does not represent the thoughts of all men everywhere, but it is apparent that some men have given thought to why women actually cheat. In addition, it seems that they have thought past the superficial answers of she’s a “*&^*#!” or some other condescending term. The reasons listed above seem to have some reasonable answer to why this happens although they provide no justification. Perhaps it simply gives us something to think about.

I think women cheat just as much as men, because who are the men cheating with, women.Men get the bad rep but it takes two to tango.
ReplyDeleteHey Anonymous,
DeleteI am not sure if you read the blog article but the is actually speaking about women who cheat. This has nothing to do with men cheating. In fact, it is a tally taken from the perspective of men. Let me know if I can clarify further. Peace...peace.
