Psychologically speaking, the majority of men do not participate in infidelity for the same reason that women do.
Cheaters, particularly recurrent cheaters, are typically opportunistic and emotionally compartmentalized. So why do men who are married cheat?
It is impossible to generalize because every relationship and man is unique. Certain married guys may be promiscuous because they are unfulfilled.
Men don't cheat while sad, though. Men betray because they think they can and because they're eager to.
It's intriguing to think about the paradox that adultery isn't connected with familial love or caring, but it can make it difficult to be a decent parent and husband.
General Social Survey: 20% of men cheat, compared to 13% of women. 10% of pregnant fathers cheat, according to estimates.
When a man is freshly married and having sex in front of his new appliances, his resistance to temptation may be higher than when his partner's interest is waning.
Cheating isn't pathological among healthy males. Healthy men betray because of immaturity, not attachment issues or sex addictions.
Men can't cheat unless they are mature and considerate enough. A mature person thinks about their partner wherever they are.
