complicated subject, with lots of variables. context and circumstances are important. but read a book about it, and there was a profile of likely 'cheaters' men and women, a lot had to do with lack of risk aversion, and a draw towards a rush or thrill. Drawn towards risky behavior.

high risk tolerance
draw towards a rush
ability to compartmentalize.
poor impulsive control

it's something like that. everyone is going to have their own personal reasons. but there is some psychology at play in it.

like I would be someone exactly like that, aside from the impulse control (which I had to get under control with sobriety when i was 21!) - morally ambivalent in addition, calculating, has had addictions to cocaine and alcohol, seductive, doesn't feel bound by rules. it would be a screaming red flag if someone knew all that about me.

Men have to expend effort to cheat. They have to download dating apps or step outside their normal routine to socialize and meet women. They have to *work* for the sex.

I think that's part of what makes it so heinous when they do. There's this sense of "you wanted someone else badly enough that you were willing to go through all that effort and now you're copping pleas?"

With women it's a matter of just saying "yeah sure" and giving in to the daily approaches that men make. Female beauty and attention is so prized that they literally can't just step put the house in a t shirt and jeans without being hollered at or post a Pic on social media without thirst flooding the inbox.

It's far easier for them to cheat and it's what fuels male jealousy and refusal to be okay with them going to the club on their own or going on a vacation without their man. There's the assumption that after a couple drinks and a "you got some pretty eyes, my name Corey :mjlit:" ngga approaches they'll throw that ring away like Bobby shmurda hat and give him that throat. Paradoxically women seem aware of this fact and yet still act confused when a man is jealous and wants her to only go out when he's around.

People cheat because of lust, and some times out of spite. An immature individual might cheat back after she's been cheated on instead of just throwing the relationship in the bushes and moving on.

I'd also add on insecurity as a reason why men cheat. They need to know they still have value in the dating world especially if they weren't getting much women before and had a glow up. Some men will act cool with his girl going out on her own and having girls trips because he's busy cracking his side piece's back while his girl is away. That woman is in an open relationship, she just doesn't know it. He assumes she's gonna cheat on him anyway so he might as well get some cat himself while she's gone. It's a win win for him because he seems like he's secure and not jealous but in reality he just doesn't care. If she splits up with him, he's got his back-up girl.

Weak men (and women) who have not mastered their own bodies or their own desires.
And instead of having the maturity and to be open and honest and end the relationship, they resort to subterfuge

Discipline is the number 1 lacking quality in people these days.

Its rare to find a man or women who has true discipline and who can resist temptations and urges.

........ if you still beat off and say you wouldn't cheat... don't speak on this. You're beat off to screen with a woman
-So you consider that the same as cheating?
You sound like a person with morals/discipline. It's hard for people like yourself to understand people lacking in that regard. It's similar to how super motivated people don't understand why people slack. We got way more slackers than motivated people though.
-A lot of people with morals can understand why other people cheat. "As loyal as their options" is a dumbass blanket statement either way.

What’s wild is how when you’re in a relationship cat gets thrown at you from every direction but if you LEGIT single…well, good luck :francis:
You've shown worthiness on some level. It's wild but think for a second. Coke had a flavored soda called Coke Spiced a while back. Pushed it everywhere. Wasn't selling for shyt. Meanwhile regular Coke is flying off the shelf. Subconciously folks that aren't putting too much thought into grabbing a soda will conclude Spice was garbage. It hadn't passed the Smell Test, so to speak.
So if some female is putting up with you and don't let you be handsome, too? You passed the Smell Test. You flew off the shelf.

Plus, a large segment of the population gets a hell of a charge going after somebody else's shyt as opposed to building up their own. That principal applies in numerous facets of everyday life!


But these broads be out here :pachaha:
Women wild out big time. But many of them aren't big on initiating. Many would be surprised how receptive a female in a 'committed' relationship would be to fooling around if the proper and safe(ie discreet) situation presented itself. Marriage can be a beautiful thing. But it can drag at a person's self esteem. :sadcam:. And the attention of a random pushes the stock price sky high. Just my observation.

This has nothing to do with being in shape. Pro athletes can't stay faithful. Faithfulness is about empathy, integrity, maturity, fortitude.

As someone who slipped up in the relationship I had, I was 25 and lacked the latter two which would've let me leave before doing such.
All I'm saying is if you're fat you're cheating on yourself

In the words of Chris Rock men are only as loyal as their options the rest is discipline..

Your most likely in shape with those disciplinary standards.

If a fat cheeto dust fingered fool speaks on this they probably shouldnt and haven't had the chance to exercise their options.

Also a major key if you still beat off and say you wouldn't cheat... don't speak on this. You're beat off to screen with a woman :gucci:

Facts to the bolded. nikka just be online talking.

Then go straight to porn hub fantasizing bout to bytch that ain't his wife and would give one of his toes to sleep with.

nikkaz know nobody really want them like that so they can talk hella high and mighty sht.

Cheaters love to parrot this phrase but it doesn't even make sense. Neither logically nor grammatically does it make sense.

If I'm in a committed relationship then she is my only option. If we break up then I have plenty of options.

Who iz you nikkaz
:what:
