Usually, when a person feels tempted to cheat, it
rarely has to do with just sex or the way another person looks. Sure, we all
still acknowledge other people's good looks even when in a serious
relationship, but that is not enough to lure us into actual cheating. The
following is the top three reasons people feel tempted to cheat in a relationship:
1) Being Stuck in a Pattern. Relationships often get stuck in a pattern,
taking away all the mystery and excitement. Many assume that all relationship
eventually loses all excitement, but this does not have to be true. Keeping
each other interested and making sure your relationship is a never ending
journey of discoveries will keep you and your partner close and always
interested in each other. So be sure not to get stuck in a pattern and do not
get lazy with your relationship. Remember to keep dating each other and trying
new things that will have both learning new things about each other.
2) Lack of Communication. As a relationships get older and more mature,
people tend to become too comfortable and confident that everything is okay and
often begin to stop communicating like the used to. Many also assume that their
partner should know everything about them by now and therefore they should not
have to tell them anything. When the communication is lacking in a
relationship, one or both partners start to feel alone and disconnected
emotionally and begin to crave that close connection again. This is when a
person can start noticing other people and becomes tempted to find someone
outside the relationship who will give them attention and comfort they feel is
lacking in the relationship. Make sure you always keep the communication
between you and your partner open and that it is done on a daily basis, even if
it is only something very simply and small being said.
3) Having too much Friendship. Being good friends is essential for a
relationship and it important to have a strong friendship along with the strong
romance. However, as a relationship matures, people tend to focus more on their
friendship and close connection and begin to neglect the romantic side of their
relationship, causing the relationship to lose its spark and passion. This can
cause one or both partner to feel tempted to cheat, because eventually, he or
she will crave that romantic and sexual closeness and if he or she feels it is
no longer possible or exciting with you, then cheating can occur to satisfy
that desire and need for romantic/sexual connection.
There is never a 100% guarantee that your partner will ever cheat on you
and you will have to trust each other and listen to your instincts as well, but
you should also invest your best efforts in making sure that your relationship
is as healthy as possible. So keep your communication open and honest, add
variety to keep things exciting and keep a healthy balance of both close
friendship and hot romance.
