Relationship cheating is a very common occurrence. If you haven’t experienced it yet, there’s a good chance you eventually will.

The big game-changer here is the Internet, which makes even 10-year old stats seem very dated now. Recents surveys suggest thatmost people have flirted online at one point or another, that when people spend time in chat rooms they’re usually motivated by romantic or sexual interest, and that about a third of adults have had real sex as a result ofa connection that began online. In the USA alone, tens of millions of people cheat on their primary relationship partners. Cheating is very, very common.
