20 reasons why we cheat
The website CheatConfession is exactly what it sounds like — and, as you might expect from an online confessional, some of the anonymous posts are true and heartbreaking, and some are clearly fake (and therefore either hilarious or terrifying). People post if they’ve cheated, have been cheated on, or are just considering cheating. Each cheater who posts is encouraged to fill out a “Reason” box along with their story; for some reason, when they are forced to be so succinct, the truth seems to reign. Here are twenty recent Reasons — it’s a pretty enlightening (or, perhaps, depressing) snap-shot of why people cheat…
- I was very drunk and you was 1000 miles away from me.
- She was a hot lesbian
- Just because
- I’m tired of waiting for husband to STOP being a drunk pothead, I wanted to get caught & have him leave me
- Sex
- Closeness
- Eh, I was going to break up with him soon anyway.
- Four times per year just isn’t enough!
- My boyrfriend was not satisfying my needs intellectually and spiritually. I would have NEVER cheated on him had I not found someone who I believed (at the time) matched me in such matters.
- Because I am unhappy…..no regrets.
- He likes the same kind of sex all the time, I had never been with another woman or in a threesome, and just wanted the experience.
- Maybe I was feeling neglected. Anyhow. I’ve been married for nine years. I have a 2 year old daughter. I love my wife and my kid and I love my life. I think I was going through my own crisis.
- We pretty much just found each other attractive and acted on it
- He cheated on me, he is a careless loser….
- Stephen (the bf) is too familiar, too dull, and takes me for granted.
- I cheated cuz I feel like you were cheating on me with the bar. All the nights that you told me you were on ur way home home from work and didnt come home til 3am and drunk. I feel like u choose the bar over me.
- To get away with it. And to f**k with peoples emotions and feelings.
- The white wine was the reason, lack of attention, lack of kindness from your side… I was confused.
- I really can’t help myself. I love how they both make me feel.
- I don’t know.
