Emotional Vs. Physical Involvement

[pythongrace]

Yes, that's a possibility. I didn't mean to say it was not. However, some "studies" and a few men on here say that the sexual relationship with your significant other is not a strong reason for why they cheat.

According to these studies, what could be the strong reason why your significant other is physically cheating?

Cuz if a girl have sex with some other guy, she can still relinquish those physical activities, therefore undoing the unacceptable behavior.

yeah but she could never get rid of the taint. It would make my stomach turn just to touch her. that's what I mean by permanent. And I'm talking just for myself of course.

Of course it isn't. In my observation, opportunity is a motivating factor for males, and women are chasing that "butterfly" feeling. I don't think I have ever known anyone who was cheating because they weren't getting it at home.

It's all emotional cheating, there is no only physical cheating, cheating by nature is emotional. If she's getting some emotional fullfilment that should be exclusively from me then that is just as bad as a physical affair. In CBII speak why would you want his emotional dick in her any more than his physical one in her.

That's not really true. Cheating can be purely physical. What about picking up a drunken bar slut. How emotional is that? Or going to see a prostitute even?

Couldn't have said it better myself. We really do agree on an astounding number of topics.

Yeah, at first I was thinking as Sureality, but quickly thought of the people in the porn industry.

What vashti said among other things too but not lack (or issues) of sex at home.

[Charlie Boy II]

Well that's not really cheating. But it would be very naieve to think all people who f-ck have some emotional attachment. Some of my mate's for example, the overwhelming majority of their sexual experiences have been with girls they don't have the slightest emotional attachment to.

I suspect this means I am rather more "male" in my opinions. Oh, well. Good company.

Yeah, there's a lot of physical sex without emotional attachment. I didn't really think about them until now. Very interesting. Also, some of those porn "actors" are married. It's not really cheating but I don't know how their spouse deal with it. It's not even a threesome or group sex. Maybe they just like to watch...or the income...or direct.
