I think it depends on the individual.

I don't think I could produce a blanket statement, for why either sex does or does not, cheat. I do think that males are more driven by lust in such situations more so than females. Therefore, I think the males bear a little bit more of the responsibility for the infidelity than the females in most cases- but that is just my opinion.

Wow Norm24x7, I'm sorry to hear what you've through. There are many women that would like a guy like that. Unfortunately you were just unlucky to get a total nasty b!$#&. What you have to do now is move on with your life and go complete NC with her. She never deserved someone like you.

In my opinion, men cheat simply to indulge in a sexual conquest. Women however, are more complicated and therefore cheat for the following reasons: 1. Sexual conquest. 2. Emotional reasons. 3. Financial reasons.

This is highly suggested and almost always the case but it all boils down to one thing....... they are all excuses. There's still no excuse for it unless you cheated on a cheater to get back at him/her and then proceed on throwing them to the curb.
