The other reason people cheat is lack of sexual satisfaction. If you are not satisfied in the bedroom, you may look for that satisfaction elsewhere.
For a lot of people, the lack of sexual satisfaction can be boiled down to lack of novelty. For some it could be not being able to orgasm during sex. Or it could be that the sex is not exciting enough for them.
As relationships progress, the sexual excitement is likely to diminish and people can start craving the excitement that comes with a new sexual relationship.
Dr. Alicia Walker of Missouri State University studied many women who secretly had extra marital affairs using an online portal. These women specifically vetted the online profiles for a sexual partner, rather than emotional partner. These women didn’t want to leave their relationship, they just wanted the novelty that comes with an affair and get the sexual satisfaction that was lacking in their relationship.
3. Cheating Because You Were Feeling Trapped or Overwhelmed
Sometimes, people cheat because they feel trapped in the relationship. Because they want to run away from it. Either because their emotional needs were unmet, because their sexual needs were unmet, or simply because they are going through a rough time in their lives.
But when their partner finds out about their cheating and wants to end the relationship, they realize the mistake they made and want to make it work.
4. Cheating Because You Are Young and Exploring Your Options
A lot of young people often cheat on their partners and end up regretting it. When you are young, you aren’t really sure about what you want in a relationship and you want to explore your sexuality. This is common if you got in a committed relationship before you got the chance to fully explore your options.
Young couples who cheat on their partner can get their ex back but this often requires you to take some time apart from your ex and stay single for a while. Don’t force your ex to get back together unless you are both sure you are ready to be in a committed relationship.
5. Cheating Because of Long Distance Relationship
Long distance relationships are often very challenging and they can lead to infidelity. If you and your ex broke up because of long https://gorgeousbrides.net/sv/asian-melodies/ distance and infidelity, then you shouldn’t attempt to get back together unless you are both back in the same city.
6. Cheating Because You Weren’t Committed Enough To the Relationship
Some of my readers and clients have shared stories about how they cheated when they weren’t serious about the relationship. But when they realized that they wanted to be with their ex, it was too late. Their ex had already found out about the act of infidelity and decided to breakup.
This usually happens because you weren’t honest about what type of relationship you wanted and your commitment. This is also more common if you are young and still exploring your options.
But the fact remains, your ex expected commitment from you and you weren’t ready for it. This type of infidelity can be hard to overcome because your ex’s level of commitment for you is probably very low. If you cheated early on in the relationship, your ex has little reasons to rekindle a relationship with someone they aren’t committed to and who has already broken their trust.
This is a very important step whenever you are trying to get an ex back. It’s important even if there was no cheating. The fact is, getting back together and making a relationship work is hard work. And it doesn’t always work. It gets even harder and the chances of it working get even slimmer if infidelity was involved.
