20 Reasons Why We Cheat
The website CheatConfession is exactly what it sounds like — and, as you might expect from an online confessional, some of the anonymous posts are true and heartbreaking, and some are clearly fake (and therefore either hilarious or terrifying). People post if they’ve cheated, have been cheated on, or are just considering cheating. Each cheater who posts is encouraged to fill out a “Reason” box along with their story; for some reason, when they are forced to be so succinct, the truth seems to reign. Here are twenty recent Reasons — it’s a pretty enlightening (or, perhaps, depressing) snap-shot of why people cheat…
- i was very drunk and you was 1000 miles away from me.
- She was a hot lesbian
- Just because
- I’m tired of waiting for husband to STOP being a drunk pothead, I wanted to get caught & have him leave me
- Sex
- closeness
- Eh, I was going to break up with him soon anyway.
- Four times per year just isn’t enough!
- My boyrfriend was not satisfying my needs intellectually and spiritually. I would have NEVER cheated on him had I not found someone who I believed (at the time) matched me in such matters.
- Because I am unhappy…..no regrets.
