I read somewhere that some 60% of people cheat on their SO. I dont get it

I am in a relationship and would never cheat on my gf, if I did I would not be able to live with myself

Call me old fashioned but I believe in being faithful to your SO, no matter how tempting another woman (or man) may be. It seems to me as if nobody is honest and faithful anymore, considering so many people cheat and dont seem to have even the slightest qualm about it. Thats what I really dont get, is that if one can cheat, and feel no guilt then they must not truly love their SO so why keep the relationship going?

Does anybody know why 60% of people cheat? Are we that lazy and selfish now in 2010 that a majority isnt faithful anymore?

New booty and keep the SO at home.

Probably why most people cheat, I'm sure there are variants though.

I personally wouldn't cheat......

Humanity always seems to let me down. I don't say that out of a disregard for humanity in general.....

There is absolutely "no excuse" to cheat on your spouse, period.
Couples do it all the time because of one reason or another. It happens, and it happens alot.
It even happens to the couples who swear that it will never happen to them.
I think it all boils down to the fact that they are not happy, and content in their marriage. They wonder, and look elsewhere...

The reality is, there are many different reasons - everybody has a story.

People see each other as disposable is really the root of it all.
