Why do men fool around?

Most every man has sometime had an affair or encounter with another woman behind closed doors. Once brings another time maybe with a different woman. Are the excuses for him merrited? What makes a woman go along knowing he belongs to another? Is it the gamble, lust, looking for better than we have, or could it be tired of what we have? Why can't men be content more?


  • Both Men and Women cheat

    Who cares about men's reasons for cheating, what about women's reasons? There are many women out there who cheat, but the "victimized" women are the ones who make a bigger deal out of cheaters than do victimized men, who usually ARE bummed about it but keep it to themselves. I'm a woman, and I know from first-hand experience that women DO CHEAT as much as men do.

    But you want to know what? Women still usually go for the heart - but not always. And men still usually go for the looks - but not always. Because remember, there are always exceptions (of which I've seen them all.)

  • CHEATING PARTNERS

    BECAUSE THEY CAN! Most men cheat when they are going thru the change of life. Women cheat because they aren't getting whats needed at home.

  • Bah.

    They are fools. Women who do it, are too. I don't mean to offend anyone by saying this, I just don't see why anyone would do it.

    If you are with someone, and want someone else, you break up with the person you are with [Or divorce, whatever], and THEN you can go off and be with that person. Unless they are married. But then, they could get divorced.

    It hurts, of course, when one is cheated on. And it could be prevented. It would hurt less for someone to be left, than cheated on. But you see...some people just don't have morals, they don't care. And that sickens me.

    ...to me, there is really no valid reason for someone to cheat.

  • What???

    Even centuries ago when the world was nearly a completely male-dominated place BOTH women and men have had affirs. It is not just men or women who diddle dally about. Both do it. Perhaps, not both sides of one relationship, but both sexes as a whole.

    That said, I don't think that there is any particular reason that men or women stray. Everyone has a reason and I am certain that the reasons are diverse. Infidelity is a concept to be dealt with between a couple, not by the general public. There is no right or wrong answer that can be applied to every couple.

    Some things are simply private affairs. Certainly no room for a community to intrude and gossip and meddle with baseless advice.

  • Not real justification

    What I tend to think is first a man looks at a women on the outside where a woman looks at a man from her heart. He sees sex, beauty etc but she sees from her heart anything she feels is good for her. 1. You could be oversexed. 2. What a man doesn't get at home he will find it from some other woman. 3. He was done wrong maybe while gone in military and tried to payback the hurt to restore what he had before he left. 4. His wife has gained so much weight that her figure is not allureing as it had been.
