while back and Holly, 28, who broke up with her
fiancé because she found him in bed with his secretary,
get up close and personal with us to share their
thoughts and experiences to explain why men cheat.
We were the ones asking questions while they were
replying.
"Séx is probably the major cause for all men to cheat",
said Laura. Holly was quick to point out, "It is not
always the case that men don't get great séx at home. I
know it sounds harsh, but men sometimes find it hard
to stay faithful". Friends, better double check on this
one in your own life.
"Jonathan, my best friend's partner cheated on her for 6
months before she found out. He said she did not give
him respect which made him go astray", said Holly.
"This was probably the only genuine reason a man
could give to the question, why do men cheat.
Genuine, but not good enough", said Laura. "He could
always have talked it out. I'm not sure if lack of respect
is the justification for cheating", she added.
"Mike always told me that his life was getting
monotonous day by day. He would come home from
work and complain that every day was the same. I feel
that this frustration drove him to cheat", said Laura.
We could see the anger on Laura's face and could sure
understand what she meant when she said, "Life is
tough and can sometimes get monotonous. That does
answer the question 'why do mean cheat', does it?",
she asked.
We were hoping Holly would answer this question and
tell us what it has got to do with long distance
relationships, because she was in one herself. She did
not disappoint us and gave us some great insight. "My
ex and I were living in different cities for about 2 years.
I got suspicious when he started avoiding my calls and
started using frequent excuses and reasons to avoid my
calls. I decided to travel to Atlanta where he was based.
I crashed into his apartment only to find him with his
secretary", said Holly. "My case is a typical answer to
our question. I think that the distance caused my ex to
cheat", she said, disappointed.
"Absolutely not", said Holly. We all bump into
charming men who may flirt a bit with women but stay
in their limits. Men who can stay committed in the
most vulnerable of situations are hard to find, but they
do exist", she added. This brings us to the conclusion
that men aren't inherently unfaithful and hence, it
can't be the answer to our question.
"I think that the idea of chauvinism and male
dominance has got a lot to do with unwrapping the
answers to our question", pondered Laura. Holly
agreed and said, "Male chauvinism can sometimes
make a man think that that he can get away with
everything, including cheating on his partner. No
wonder we see many male political leaders, corporate
biggies and big celebrity names caught up in cheating
scandals".
