Top Five Reasons Women Cheat on their Husbands – Experts

A new research has explored the reasons why some women tend to cheat on their husbands, a grave sin that can break a home.Other than disagreements arising from
childlessness and the usual ‘irreconcilable differences’, there is hardly any other thing that has wrecked marriages than infidelity. Defined simply as the action or state of being unfaithful to a spouse, infidelity is an act that isengaged in by both men and women.Even though it is widely believed that men are guiltier of this act, studies have shown that women are just as culpable as men, if not more.A study by Dr. David Holmes, a psychologist at Manchester Metropolitan University, United Kingdom, shows that women, more than ever, now have more extra-marital affairs than men,noting however that women are better at hiding their infidelity, they are a lot more likely to lie about it and a lot less likely to get caught.It has been established that men are more daring when it comes to infidelity, and it is even a status symbol in some cycles while it is somewhat forbidden for a woman to even think about it, not to talk of doing it.Holmes, in his post on Mail Online, said, “If you look at the studies into paternity, even conservative figures show that between eight and 15 per cent of children haven’t been fathered by the man who thinks he’s the biological parent. So, the biggest difference is that women are much better at keeping their affairs secret.”That men cheat is not the gist, and some people have even adduced several reasons for their infidelity, including the fact that men are moved by what they see, thus, they are more likely to cheat because of s*x. But given that women are seen to be more reticent when it comes to their se*uality, it is therefore compelling to note the things that make women cheat on their husbands.According to reports, whether such women do so because they are either not satisfied with their marriage entirely or they are not satisfied with it at all, the main reasons that have been found include unsatisfactory or lack of emotional care, arising from lack of attention and intimacy, revenge, feeling under-appreciated, boringness, low self esteem, peer pressure, financial independence, and of course s*xual dissatisfaction or the more serious one, s*xual addiction. These were the findings of Divorced Moms, which is an online community for divorced women and single mothers, where they share ideas and experiences.s*x: This is one of the key reasons some women cheat on their husbands. Findings have shown that some women have extramarital s*xual relationship because they are not getting enough of good s*x, some do it because they are not getting any, maybe the refusal of the man to ‘touch them’ based on subsisting conflict and a lot of women do it out of emotional disconnection from their spouses.Meanwhile, most women do not reach climax during s*xual intercourse, which on its own creates some discomfort for them, hence, there is the possibility for some to look for that s*xual satisfaction elsewhere and it is more likely if they have a waiting or willing ‘partner’ outside. It is equally not strange for some women to engage in extramarital affairs if their husbands have small manhood. This shows the importance of s*x in marriage.According to Dr. Janne Lomasky, a United States-based psychologist, women who do not experience real climax during s*x may eventually lose interest in the relationship andlook elsewhere for good s*x. She noted, however, that such women should communicate their needs to the husband or, they could seek the help of a s*x therapist instead of having another affair.Revenge: It is interesting to note that some women engage in extramarital affairs to get back at their husbands, especially when such men had also cheated on them. Such women have been found to do it in style, pride and they see it as the best way to revenge the wrong done to them by the Cheat!ng husband. “Those who have been cheated before feel deceived, hurt, angry, sad
