| As a married man, have you cheated? |
| That means just as many women cheat. |

"Studies say"? Citations, please, and from actually reputable sources, with valid statistical methods, or you're just making up "studies" to stir up s**t. This is like the posts where people here make huge, universal claims about how "most men" or "most women" do or think...anything, really. Meaningless. If you have some real stats, you'd have cited them already. Go do something more useful with your time, OP. |
| That 60% likely = married men that cheat -> divorce, remarry -> cheat some more |
|
I doubt it. Especially as you're not going to actually point to one of these "Studies"! |
| I think an accurate statistic for this is just impossibly hard to capture. It's a behavior that is extremely frowned upon in our culture and I think even men reporting anonymously may fail to admit to it. It is like asking about homosexuality in the 40s or something. |
| Woman here.Tossing around stats like that is such BS and is done to rile up all the DCum women who hate their husbands. Most people on this are women so why not ask women if they have cheated, ideally using valid data if it exists. FWIW I’ve never cheated and I’ve never had the desire or the need to. |
| No |
| It doesn't matter how many other men cheat, it only matters if the one you have cheats. Tendencies may be interesting to know but they don't excuse bad decisions. |
| Divorce statistics, cheating statistics, yada yada. All I can do is influence my own marriage. If we are happy emotionally, physically, financially etc we won’t be a statistic and so far so good. |
Huh? If a married man cheats with a single woman, only one of them is cheating. |
It seems like there are a lot of screwed up people in the world whose spouses are caught off guard by their indiscretions because things seemed happy and healthy. I think the best advice is to not make your marriage or any other one thing your entire life or reason for living, especially your marriage, career, or children. Life changes on a dime and you can lose anything and everything. You need to have a higher purpose. |
| I've had sex with women other than my wife but she was always there |
Some guys have all the luck. |
| Yes, numerous times. Most of them were women from work. None of them knew that I was sleeping with the other women. A few close calls, but never was caught. |
