why do married /committed men cheat?
104317
I think men cheat because they need to know that they are still desired. \n\nI feel they reach a point in their marriage where they know in their heart that they are loved by their wife....but they start to question whether they have been all they need to be. Perhaps his wife doesn't tell him how "necessary" he is anymore. Perhaps his wife doesn't seduce him the way she used to. Perhaps she doesn't brag about him to her friends the way she used to. He needs to know he is still worthy. \n\nSo one day.....someone notices him.......and man...it just feels so good to be noticed again! And then maybe he sees her again the next day......and the next day. And her smile starts to become addictive. He becomes intrigued about who she is......and why she has noticed him. It might start out as a smile.......but it will become a kind comment.....and then a need on her part to 'run into him' just as he has found it necessary to run into her. \n\nMany times the affair is not intended. But all of a sudden it starts to fill a hole and fulfill a need that he realizes needs to be filled. She tells him how necessary he is........she craves the intimacy.......she tells him what a wonderful person he is. All the things that were lacking in his marriage. His needs are being fulfilled.........just not by his wife.

i thik men cheat because the are insecure and have to prove that to themselve sthat they are real men when in all actuallity it would have taken more of a man to stay loyal but i think you can expect him to cheat again but as a male i find that most are probably cheaters unfortunately and i think its very common and accepted among men of men to have multiple women even when commited to one

I always jokingly say that "all men are pigs" but there are some that can be faithful. People only do to you what you LET them do. My husband has cheated on me several times because I LET him get away with it, and did nothing. Whereas, my sister has been married for 30 yrs, and I can swear on a bible her husband has never cheated.

if a guy cheats on his girlfriend it means he will cheat on her always and he will cheat on his wife as well when he gets married. cheating is a weak personality. it doesn't fix until one partner breaks the relationship.

because they are married...not dead.  I look at men all the time.  That doesn't make me a cheater.

Most women I know who cheated were either bored with their married lives, or were in an unhappy marriage or relationship and could not or would not wait until they were out before starting something new.  I always say leave before beginning anything new.  Also, the grass is not always greener on the other side.

Married men can be faithful...they can if they want to.\nWomen is the same. Women can cheat too. Both men and women can cheat. And, men and women can be faithful...only if they really want to be.

i think that many men that cheat, don't cheat for the love, it is sex,or being bored with their current, g/f o. wife..ect, They don't do it like women. Women cheat for feelings, unless they are just horney, and are not getting what they want from their man/partner. Women seem to want the relationship and the feelings to be deeper than a man wants. Not that men do not have deep feelings....many men love very much, but it seems that many women cheat much more than men these days? women seem to be cheating quite a bit..the big stereotype of only men cheating has totally turned!

Everbody is answering as if your question was: Do all men cheat on their wives,............   but what you wrote was:  Do all men cheat their wives?\n\nTo some extent, all men (and all women) cheat their spouse out of something.   Whether it is your 100% attention, love, loyalty or providing a 100% consistently fulfilling sexual partner......... there are times when each of us cheats the other somehow.\n\nAs to whether all men cheat ON their spouses.  No, I believe that some men are capable of keeping their promises and staying faithful.  Unfortunately the 'bad-apples' ruin the reputation for men.

usually its because they need a change to the same routine, maybe they are second guessing their relationship,maybe they can get what they need from the person their cheating with, maybe its blackmail, or greed or lustor,maybe theyre still in love with their ex partner(if its an ex they slept with), maybe they got into deep into a relationship they cant get out of , maybe they dont love their spouse , maybe its low self esteem , \n\nwho knows there are many different reasons and no one reason is right or wrong, and it has nothing to do with anything except the struggle that is going on inside that person that does it, dont bother to ask why people do it,  just dont do it yourself, and walk away if it happens to you.

i agree- once a cheater....  if he cheated on his wife and is willing to leave her, is this really the type of person you want to be with!?!?!  seems like a set up for heartbreak!

I have never cheated but have heard that the main reason a woman cheats is because she is not fully happy at home. Something is missing, which could be a lot of things...

I don't believe in cheating on people either. I think people do it because they want the excitement of the beginning of a relationship where sometimes both people are on their best behavior, etc. or maybe they like the "conquest". Anyway neither reasons are very good because the next relationship will be the same eventually. I think some people aren't mature enough to realize that  they could just put their love and affection in the present relationship and it would be just as exciting. If a person lived by "do unto other as you would have done to you" they would not cheat.

It goes both ways and it's not just men. Women are just as guilty for doing the same thing. Why do they do it? Only the person who is doing the cheating knows the answer to that. Doesn't make it right but it's hard to answer that question.
