Is it possible to love someone wholly, yet still cheats on them?
There are millions of reasons why people cheat on their supposed partner. Lack of emotional support and intimacy. I met someone outside of my relationship that was supportive and kind to me in the exact way I’d been asking my partner to be. After a long time of feeling lonely and invisible I fell for someone else. I didn’t cheat, I told my partner and cut contact with the other woman, but after some failed therapy I decided I needed to find someone that was willing to meet my needs in a way that had me feeling loved and cared for. Unfortunately my former partner wasn’t willing to give me what I needed and I needed more than she was willing to give.
People often think the main reason people cheat are related to sexual needs, although sex may play a role, the majority of affairs often start out as emotional affairs due to an addiction to attention. One major thing that cheating can say about a person is the fact that they are very insecure if they are unfaithful outside of their main relationship. There are many reasons for infidelity such as revenge, boredom, the thrill of sexual novelty, sexual addiction. But I believe that a large majority of the time, motivations differ by gender, with men searching for more sex or attention and women looking to fill an emotional void.
