[b]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.[/b] 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.[/quote]

Sigh. No. I know there's this rhetoric on DCUM that men cheat if given the opportunity. But honestly, I don't buy it. [b]What you describe isn't actually easy when you have a family life and set hours.[/b] 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.

Any relationship is a hassle.  But to the type of person who wants to step outside their marriage, the hassle is worth it.  You, a person who is probably healthy and prioritizing your family, see this as a hassle.  But for someone bored, unhappy, or sociopathic?  It's an adventure, not a hassle.[/quote]

PP you replied to. I agree with you. I just have difficulty imagining so many men or women would be bored and take that particular way out. [/quote]
