Love & Sex

Inside a Guy’s Mind: Why Do Men Cheat?

Real men tell the truth about why they stray.

by Brenda Della Casa

Topics: dating, sex, love, infidelity, cheating More

Some blame biology, and others claim it's simply an ongoing search for the bigger, better deal. But the truth is, when it comes to cheating on your partner, there are all kinds of reasons and most of them aren't what you're thinking. We asked men from across the country to answer the question that's on every woman's mind: What makes a man cheat?

"The only surefire way a guy will cheat is if some slutty woman puts an easy opportunity to cheat in his face. There is nothing any other woman can do to prevent the guy from cheating in this situation. It has nothing to do with how hot you are, or how much you please him, or if you have pissed him off or not. If he is stupid and has the chance, he will probably cheat." —Justin, 33, Los Angeles

Some men are selfish,obscure,over the top pigs who just cant settle for a smart and beautiful indiviual.They feel that they have to "soy thier oats" and be plentiful because "every" woman would love to have them so why just hold on to one.

Men will cheat as long as they think they can get away with it. So, women, wise up and let your man know that you know what they are up to (even though you really don't).

they cheat b/c they think with the wrong head thats a given. b/c that is what is glorified in the world today to have as many women as possible to try and be the player or the pimp. just disgusting really

I do blame the man but I also say that alot of women don't care if the man is taken or not if they are attracted to him some will even come on to him in front of his wife.
The next question should be here why don't women care cause if they cheat on their wives with them they are going to do it again on them right.
What fools us women can be.

All these guys answers are a bunch of bull! If you can't committ to one woman, than don't act as though you are committed and then cheat on her. Act like a silly boy for as long as you want, and then cry about being lonely when you're in your 40's and want a real relationship. It's all about being macho and acting as though they have the power in a relationship to do such things and just expect the woman to stand by his side and forgive him because he "can't help it". To all the men who do cheat, GROW UP AND GROW A PAIR!!! Being a man isn't about how many women you've "had", it's about how you treat the woman you're with.

SECURITY? hmmmmmmmmm donno about that, but I know its all about notches on their belt from under their belt. We get a bad rep, how do we know you are married or in a relationship when we approach guys. We like you are out trying to find a good man an see if there is a connection
