Psychological Reasons for Cheating

1. Ego- driven- Some men are driven by their self-image and are insecure. As men age or settle down, that feeling of insecurity can increase and the question- “Do I still have what it takes to get the prize?” –Mid-life crisis and flashbacks of younger days can creep in.

2. Accessibility/ Opportunity - We live in the age of the easy button. 90% of people who have online affairs get addicted and search for another

3. Greed- We can’t leave out the fact that some men are just greedy. They seem to never have enough women, sex, or pleasure.

4. Emotional needs /Voids- Although for men it is common to think that cheating is about sex, there are men that cheat because of certain voids that exist in the relationship. It can be a lack of support, respect, attention, praise, sex, etc…

5. Narcissistic-these are men that lack empathy and think mainly about themselves and their own needs.

6. Undisciplined/immature- Some men just seem to think with the wrong head!
