WHAT YOU DIDN'T KNOW ABOUT CHEATING (2)
Over the years cheating has been confusing. A lot of people don't really know what is termed as cheating. Even researchers and clinicians cant even pin-point the behavioral pattern that constitute infidelity, its not until a partner has sex with another outside his relationship or marriage that we term as cheating. I carried out a survey sometime ago among a group of married and singles, their answers amazed me. An overwhelming majority of them answered "If he/she kissed someone else" thats their own point of view of infidelity.
Study has shown that most men don't need a reason to cheat, a clinical psychologist Dr Joyce Hamilton once told Author Lynn Noment
I compare male infidelity to a man walking into a kitchen and seeing a chocolate cake sitting on the counter. It looks good; it smells good. He is not hungry but he will eat the cake anyway.Cheating is a two way affair, one party must initiate for the other party to consent. The above quote explains that men sometimes cheat when they see a woman who is attractive and interested and even though there is nothing lacking in their marital relationships, they initiate the affairs anyway. Dr Joyce is not explaining the character of all men, this is just a simple generalization as to what apply sometimes.
