What percentage of men cheat?

[Anonymous]

What percentage of men do you think cheat in relationships and marriages? I’ve been cheated on by multiple men. Wondering if my picker is off or cheating is common.

It's said around 95% of people "cheat" at least once in their life, either physically, or emotionally. Much of that is when they are under 25.

No one I know has cheated, but I'm in a circle of middle class and middle-aged nerdy and calm intellectuals with jobs in scientific research and the like. I know it happens, and maybe some people are very successful at keeping it quiet... but to be honest, I don't think it's very frequent with those profiles.

It may be that you are attracted to the same sort of man every time.

All of the cheaters I have known in my life were "nerdy and calm intellectuals."

Everyone has a mask, but some people have a mask that truly hides what they are.

It is SO easy to cheat right now. You could get on reddit, give your general location and what you are looking for, and find a partner in no time. You could use telegram or whatever app to communicate and your spouse would never know. If you are determined, you could hide it indefinitely. There is no way to know how many people have cheated.

Define cheating?

If you mean sex with someone else while married it is about 20%.

There aren’t good stats on cheating in relationships.

If you are being cheated on in every relationship then yes, your picking is off.

Why cheat when you could just go to a hooker or an AMP?

50%

My general opinion is that men are as faithful as their options. If you are married to an attractive, successful man who is also charismatic, he's going to cheat eventually. Even if he says no 95% of the time.

My guess is around half of men cheat at some point. With a lot of the other half who would but don't have an easy option

Why go to a hooker or AMP when you can just watch some p0rn? I think for many men who cheat, it's for the thrill of being desired by someone. They're not going to get that from a professional.

You say that like any married man who is desirable to women has easy options - but some don't put themselves in the situations where options present themselves. For every guy on a business trip hitting the hotel bar there's another guy who has gone back to his room to watch a movie.

Sigh. No. I know there's this rhetoric on DCUM that men cheat if given the opportunity. But honestly, I don't buy it. What you describe isn't actually easy when you have a family life and set hours. And there's always a risk of STDs. It's just not worth it.

I'm not giving you a moral rebuttal here. I'm just saying - to most people, cheating is a hassle.

They don’t tell you. Unless their significant others find out and it becomes known to the circle, you just don’t know.
