He Made Me Feel Beautiful So I Slept with Him - Confessions of People on Why They Cheated on their Partners

 

There are several different reasons that people find themselves driven to cheat on their partners.

 

Some are complex and could be because the guilty party has met someone else, or it could be driven by self-destruction. Or it could be a simple as falling out of love.  

 

But is there ever a good enough justification for infidelity?

 

Now someone has taken to Reddit to try and find out what made cheating spouses betray their other half. The user, known only as RaxsonCZ, asked: 'People who cheated on their SO (significant other), what was your logic?'

 

 

In just two weeks, there have been over 1,600 comments and people have been honest about why they strayed and what happened afterwards. Sometimes, it seems there was no logic at all.

 

With the words 'once a cheat, always a cheat' constantly attached to those who stray, decide for yourselves what you would do in their situation. 

 

One Redditor told the forum they cheated during their 16-year marriage because her husband would make excuses not to have s*x every night and then masturbate instead.

 

After one confrontation, he told her to go and find a boyfriend but warned that no one else would want her. 

 

 

She says: 'So, I did. Should I have cheated? No. But one partner does not get to totally dictate the couples s*x life.'

 

Another person was more matter-of-fact. Curlaub wrote: 'No logic. Just hormones and regret.' 

 

Loganbad101 broke it down even more simply by saying: 'I.Was.Horny.' 

 

One person's infidelity even caused the break-up of a family.

 

 

Asdf1996 said they had been cheated on multiple times and was comforted by their partner's cousin when things 'just happened.' 

 

They wrote: 'I am not proud of it, I broke up a family and turns out his cousin was a stalker.' 

 

Refrith explained that he was in a serious car accident and that his girlfriend was busy and couldn't be there for him in the way that he wanted. Instead, his ex was. 

 

 

Another Redditor revealed that they were in an emotional and later physical affair, adding: 'Someone finally took an interest in me and made me feel beautiful, so I slept with him.'

 

Gilga-Mosh took to Reddit to admit that the reason he cheated was because he and his wife both had very poor communication and were insecure.

 

Another said their significant other two-timed them multiple times and so one day they got drunk and cheated too.
