Why People Have Affairs

Trki, Kody, Cheaty do

1. My gf cheated on me beacuse she was a coward. She did't dare talk about how our relationship were going (it was coming to an end). So she got real drunk and cheated. That way we had to end the relationship. I just wish she wasn't a coward.
2. I agree that an imbalance of closeness and distance can CONTRIBUTE to an affair.
   I also think that if your morals are in the right place, you'll either;
   a) Communicate this imbalance with your partner (as mentioned in the video)
   b) Break up with your partner before cheating on them
   c) Don't fucking cheat on them
   d) Did I mention don't cheat on them?
   
   There are REASONS for cheating, but no excuse.
3. I don't think it's that simple. We also have a biological imperative to produce diverse offspring, something humans have been ignoring at our peril for the past 5000 years. It's all great until something comes along that wipes us all out because of too little diversity.
4. BEST ADVICE: If your spouse has an affair... Do the same with someone much much better looking than them. honestly I'm not a star, but the girl I fucked was the hottest chic I ever banged.. 20 years younger than me and 10 years younger than my wife HA my wife will never cheat again once she seen her pics. She can easily be replaced.
5. Simple, yet amazing.
6. Jack Robbo>>>> So true. The problem with the world in general is that so much is pretending, lying, acting and faking. And polyamory or whatever they might call it in many years from now (Or maybe not so many years) is just an excuse for being selfish and not really loving one´s partner or being truly involved in the partnership.
7. ppl cheat becasue of distance and closeness?this is such hippie bullshit. people cheat because of cowardice and selfishness. girl bye
8. The moon landings were fake
9. Fucking communicate. If you can't, don't start a relationship.
10. ...but his advice only works when two adults are mature, accountability-holding individuals. Welp,... time to tell her I'm leaving, and then comes the arguments, then the crying, then the finger-pointing blame, then the pity-party, then the apology. Rinse. Repeat.
11. Ah.. You forget the part that many cheat, because they are addicted to falling in love. Take a person with an addictive personality (brain) and add "limerence". Once they have an addiction to this, they will begin to feel the need for "limerence", and go hunting in secret. Also there is an adrenaline rush for these type of people that they will also seek. They will then feel regret, because they did not realize that they still loved their now ex.
    I think most relationships, break up do to people seeking a renewal of the felling of falling in love.
12. this channel is awesome
13. I must say, this seems like a rather overly simplistic view of the causes of infidelity. I mean, I'm not an expert, nor have I done any research...but I'm incredibly suspicious of the simplicity of it all
14. cool story good thing my parents didnt fuck think about this at all - divorce sucks
15. dont change for these hoes..if you going put the ring on it make sure she a 10
16. this is so strange because my gf says i'm to clingy and i say she is to cold but she says she wants more attention TF. but they partly wrong tho some people cheat just because they want sex with new pussy
17. This is where I believe that our nature is fighting our nuture. Humans are animals and that is a fact that will never disappear. Life objective is to survive and reproduce. Men procreate with as many women as they can for reproductive purposes and Women find the strongest mates they can to protect themselves and offspring for longevity. That's why so many men chase sluts and women go after assholes. At our core, as much as we fight it, it ain't going anywhere. Its guna come out... we're animals, unfortunately. Monogamy is just a forced concept (that I admittedly will forever indulge in, I personally can't handle polygamy...guess im in the system lol) that I believe was invented to prevent confusion with kids. A woman will always know who is hers but a man, nah... So I think men made that to avoid that annoyance. I could be wrong (please correct me).
    Even with all that said, the way I was nurtured will tell me that people that cheat are scumbags and that mindset is going anywhere. I don't excuse cheating but I understand why people do it, they're missing something and don't want to give it up... plus its nature. I did it so I know. I felt like shit doing it and realized that the cheater lifestyle isn't for me.
18. I just broke up with my girlfriend and i could see this closeness vs distance problem. At the end of the relation she was running away asking for distance and I in the other hand I did my best to bring her closer to me with out being to pushy but it didnt work she just didnt in the end really want to be part of the relationship anymore. So I basically had to call it quits. It was awful I still loved her allot but i could tell she was not interested in remaining close any longer. Now i have been in the greeving process for a while and it's driving me crazy. I defenetly believe relationships can be good but when they go wrong the person that loved the most ends up paying a high emotional price. It doesnt feel fair at all. But then again life is not fair at all. So I suppose we better suck it up.
19. Come on guys, I'm a judgemental person and a hopeless romantic, and I can tell that this video is only doing an analysis on the psychology behind cheating, it's not justifying it at all
20. Although I'm sure your 2 examples are very common, I'm sure they're many examples of selfishness, indifference and a need for retribution are also why many people cheat. They're probably many more reasons, I would have done the video stating such before going on to just 2 examples.
