Why Men Cheat: One Mans Opinion

Having seen and heard ,over the past year, many men being caught at or confessing to "transgressions", here is one mans opinion.

                                                       Why Men Cheat: One Mans Opinion.

  The pictures are all over the web. Comedians are making lewd jokes. Wives are crying and mistresses are being revealed. Wow! Famous named husbands cheating! It is no longer the sleazy Motel 0 parking lot Lizard that is getting caught in the action.

 So why? Why can the men that are bonded to someone not keep faithful? Is it the excitement? The sex? Better looking? Money? Age?  Well, we could answer yes to all or no, but if we really want to keep on track of the reason let us examine some truths.

  Most partners that find out their significant other is having an affair already know way before it is revealed. They just display disbelieve and shock at the true revelation of their suspicion is finally there. Now , with that can of worms opened up , let us see what it is that made or  motivated the “cheater”.

  Find what brought the two of you together. Now , when was the last time that you two did this together?

It can be talking, really talking. Not text, cell phone messages or a nod in the hallway, really talk. Sex verses lovemaking. What , there is a difference? Why yes Virginia there is! Money. Oh the root of all  evil! Better looks. When was the last time you really dressed up for her or you for him? When was the last time you took time out to surprise her/ him?

 To wrap up what can be a long drawnout finger pointing session, this man will conclude. Most men and I will opinionated here, cheat” because there is something missing in their relationship. Most men are happy in a secure relationship. They like knowing that someone loves them, wants them needs them. This is what drives them to work long hours, avoid flirts and temptation and stay true. Once the basics of his motivation are taken away he becomes a “man”. Open to all assaults that are thrown at him and trust me he will fall.

    Good article friend. I do agree with you on all the points you brought up that there is something missing in a marriage when he/she cheats. I personally think that communication is one of the best assets of a marriage that seems to get overlooked by both parties. Taking the time to discuss concerns and needs of each other is vital to a successful relationship, and not just having a full blown out fight once something has already happened. Couples who address the concerns they have in their relationship long before the problem grows, will go a long way in correcting the problem before it has gone too far. Well done friend.

    Thank you for the comments. I was a little leary about the article but I felt it was time to give a “mans” side.
