Why Women Cheat. A surprising look at the female psyche...
Why Women Cheat. A surprising look at the female psyche...
Whenever this subject comes up, it's very interesting how folks react. Some people react very passionately and others react indifferently. But almost always, folks think they know the definitive answer as to WHY WOMEN CHEAT. Societal structures dictate that people assume that men cheat more often. That isn't the case. It's more about the reasons why women cheat vs. the frequency of cheating that makes it interesting.
According to the website Truth about Deception - "Men are more likely to cheat opportunistically. That is, more often and with someone who may be less attractive or desirable than their current partner. Women, by comparison, tend to cheat more selectively. Women tend to be more flirtatious, risk-taking, and act in sexually provocative ways when they are ovulating (see, Thornhill and Gangestad, 2008). Women are also attracted to more masculine and physically attractive men when ovulating (see, Thornhill and Gangestad, 2008)."

More often than not, we as humans focus on what's wrong in a situation vs. what is actually going right. We are wired to focus on the negative and the danger, but almost always ignore what we should be grateful for in a partner. Isn't it time for us to change this horrible pre-programming that's been ruling our lives? Aren't we in control here? Arent' we driving the bus?
The first step here is to start focusing on the good. Put our energy towards what makes a great relationship work.
Where focus goes energy flows!
