When it comes to women and cheating, whether in marriage or in an exclusive relationship, it has been established that women do not just start cheating. While men are capable of cheating for no particular reason, a woman has more than one reason why she cheats. Most women do not cheat for the thrill of it. They cheat to fill a void and usually is a calculated mission.

However, I am not in support of any form of cheating from any gender. Agreed, it happens, I might even be a cheat but that doesn’t make it right. If you are not happy in a relationship and the thought of cheating keeps coming, I advise you find your way out, unless, of course, you and your partner have agreed to have an open relationship.

Men in this part of the world do not like us talking or writing about the fact that women cheat which is a fact I find very funny. A woman can cheat as much as a man can. Though the ratio of women to men cheating is still low for the women, this does not mean women are not cheating neither does it mean that they are not getting away with cheating.

If you don’t want to go through the pain of being cheated, then it’s up to you to ensure that your woman is happy and satisfied. Click To Tweet

• Cheating increased with the boom of the internet. It is easier to asses somebody you have an emotional connection with and this makes it easier for women to cheat.

 

• Women are pushed out to cheat when their emotional needs are not being met by their partner. Many women come to a point where they need emotional validation and sadly, most men do not meet up. Men become very complacent, they become very comfortable in relationship. They think that the woo’ng and romance are no longer necessary because they have conquered. They stop paying the necessary attention.

• When a man is no longer showing his woman that emotional care that he used to show in the beginning, then the problem begins. She drifts to someone who gives her the type of attention she needs. And this is why most women cheat and leave, unlike men who can cheat for years and still remain in a marriage or an exclusive relationship.

• Sex is huge problem. I call it a problem because most men feel that sex is their thing. Whatever happens between your legs as a man, happens to women too. A woman wants to feel loved and satisfied when making love. If you are not giving it to her, then she will find it elsewhere.
