Sure, you all are familiar with the very popular trending topic “Why men cheat?” and the different opinions like “Men are monogamous in nature and would cheat even though they are in a happy relationship ” , “Men cheat because they are bored”, and so on and so forth.. However, I wonder why the question asking “Why women cheat “ is not so popular.
I have read some articles about it and the reasons why women cheat are very similar to why men cheat, except that women are not polygamous in nature… Or are they?
In my opinion, I think women cheat because they seek:
1. Emotional Connection 2. Financial Support 3. Revenge (On a cheating hubby) 4. Adventure
Rutgers University biological anthropologist Helen Fisher, author ofWhy Him? Why Her? andWhy We Love, says men are more likely to cite sexual motivations for infidelity and are less likely to fall in love with an extramarital partner. Women, she says, tend to have an emotional connection with their lover and are more likely to have an affair because of loneliness.
"Women tend to be more unhappy with the relationship they are in," Fisher says, "while men can be a lot happier in their primary relationship and also cheat. Women are more interested in supplementing their marriage or jumping ship than men are -- for men, it is a secondary strategy as opposed to an alternate.”
Dr Mike Murdock summed it all nicely in the photo below and it applies to both men and women…..
