What percentage of men cheat?

[Anonymous]

88% of the men said the other woman wasn’t better looking or more physically fit than their wives. The number one reason why married men cheat is NOT about sex. It’s about emotional connection and companionship. Many married men cheat because they’re lonely in their marriage, and they want to feel connected to a woman who loves them and wants to be with them physically and emotionally.

On the Oprah show, married couple Brian and Anne said they never thought they’d be talking about why men cheat. They also didn’t know that it’s much easier than they thought for one spouse to have an affair in a marriage. Anne says Brian was never gone in the evenings, they were emotionally connected, and they had sex every night.

Yet, Brian was secretly having an affair on his lunch hour at work.

Only 7% told their wives without being asked that they had an affair. 55% of men never told their wives about their affairs.

Is this your personal experience? Because your experience is not a universal experience and you can't extrapolate it into what "all men" do or feel.

Yes, it's about sex, and about ego. Of course there are men for whom it's about wanting actual love. But if you think that "the number one reason" men cheat is because they want love and it's not tied to sex? Nope.

And the fact that men say the other woman "wasn't better looking or more physically fit" than their wives? So? You don't get that many men (see? I didn't claim "all men") will have sex with objectively less attractive women than their wives. That's not because they love these less attractive women. It's about ego, the ability to get a woman to agree to clandestine sex, and thinking they're tired of, and getting one over on, their more attractive wives. I'm not saying all men who cheat do this, though. Because gross generalizations are what make threads like this into nonsense.

If nobody sees her, she as beautiful as he wants her to be. LOL These women never see the light outside of the hotel room.

92% of men say that affairs aren’t primarily about sex.

FFS, where are people getting these supposed numbers? Out of their own backsides. Citation or it didn't happen.
You're just trolls stirring the pot.

With married affairs, it's not uncommon for NO time to be missing. It allows them to get away with it for ages because they aren't coming home late or missing on the weekends. Their spouses think they are safe and there can be no cheating because 'he or she has no time and they always are where they are supposed to be." Not even late for dinner.

How is that one Ho still married? Her spouse has had to know about it by now, especially if one of her affairs helped cause a marriage to fall apart. Is he just a doormat?

Really? I have been happily married for 16 years and would never cheat in a million years. I would say 90% or more of married men are like me, and only 10% or less are like you. All depends on your point of reference, I guess.

it’s a numbers game and we out number them

speak for yourself. Not like I’m not tempted or had the opportunity but I can’t handle guilt and doing something like that to my DW would destroy me. I remember this smoking hot 21 year old came on to me at a bar when I was out of town for work. She said she’d like to see my hotel room. I then imagined trying to explain it to my wife and kids. I politely declined the young woman’s offer. And I slept great that night.

This interesting, assuming you are a man and not a troll, I think men who cheat get a sense you and people like you are dead set against cheating and therefore hide it from you. I would say about half of the 30 men I know fairly well have cheated and I am sure its higher if you add in the people who haven't said anything.

^ Like attracts like. You just know a bunch of other people with shi!ty morals or boundaries. My DH is close friends with a group of about 8 men. They talked about cheating and one admitted to doing it before marriage, none since. But these are UMC guys who all come from families with parents who stayed married and all have kids. Lots of guys would not be ok hanging out with cheaters. You are because it makes you feel better about your own jack of character.

I have a group of several friends and some have cheated but I definitely tell my wife how they would never EVER cheat because I dont need scrutiny on guys trips. I wouldn't cheat but I also would never tell my wife if they did.

Your DH probably doesn't want porn either

Guy cheaters are all convinced that all men cheat. Misery loves company but it isn’t true.
