Nine Reasons People Cheat
There are probably hundreds of reasons that men and women stray, but that doesn't stop authors and columnists from attempting to distill them down to a more management number. This time it is a blogger at Yahoo and their list is nine. It is based on the assumption that there are people who are born cheaters and there are situations that bring out cheating in others. Here is their list of the top situations to facilitate infidelity:
1. Bored 2. Dependence 3. Confusion 4. Because They Let You 5. Nurturing 6. Revenge 7. Confirmation of Attractiveness 8. The Thrill 9. They Don't Consider It Cheating, Even Though You Might
Follow the link for explanations on each.
As of this writing their post had 748 comments so it clearly struck a nerve.
