32. Cheaters aren’t going after better looks.


While we would like to think that cheating is as simple as a biological urge, that a man sometimes just can’t help himself when an attractive female is on offer, in most cases this isn’t true. Surveys have shown that most men who have cheated do not find the person with whom they had the affair more attractive than their partner. This backs up the idea that infidelity is often complicated and not always easy to explain.
