Men

[coco2]

Why do men stay with women that they are not in love with and cheat on them?

[B00]

Because they've no backbone?

[ummmm]

And reverse the question....

[missyR]

Cowards who can't face the possible responsibiltiy of a grown up realationship and take the easy way out.

I dont think all men cheat because they don't love their partner/wife. It's not just guys who are the guilty party either. I think there is probably something missing in the relationship but it might bot be the love that has gone

[Sasha13]

Don't even get me started... there isn't enough space for the rant I could have about this!!!

[bobtheduck-]

opposite is sometimes true also isn't it?

[carrot99]

Do you suspect Brenda then Bob?

[bobtheduck-]

i do ever since i caught her with the rubber ring in our local swimming pool

[carrot99]

Have you ever let her down?

[noxlumos]

The question is too simplistic. Men are not always the bad guys, nor a women always long suffering saints. People are entitled to a bit of happiness do you not think? I personally prefer honesty but I can see occasions when having an affair would be preferable to the fallout you might get from some people. My friends wife wasderanged , made his life a misery and threatened to kill herself if he ever left, is it small wonder he had an affair? When he did finally leave, she did try to kill herself, he felt guilty (unnecessarily she was a nasty manipulative piece of work imho) and everyone thought he was the bad guy and sympathised with her. Not everything is black and white, but be honest where you can.

I know women do it to men also!!! I just wanted a mans perspective really. Men and women think in different ways. Sometimes it is easier to stay with someone for the wrong reasons but you only live once. i m looking for an answer i wont find! thanks though!

[curlyfilm]

there are many reasons people have affairs, its not always black and white,
if they stay, whilst not being in love, its usually due to kids, housing, or mainly because they do not want to live alone

[legend759]

like nox ive suffered from this ,but never done it to anyone.
i think some guys are egotistical and like the idea of two women on the go.
also the security of someone at home helps them be more confident on the pull,as the always have her in doors to go back to.mind you the internet is a haven for sleazey guys with partners who chase other women too.
thats a fact i do know

[ELVIS68]

It`s also cheaper to stay put, leave and the woman will bleed you dry

[coco2]

but why live a lie in misery and keep being unfaithful?!!

[ELVIS68]

I wouldn`t know, never done it, I`m one of the good ones

[legend759]

theyre basically insecure.

and cowards
