Hello

What is cheating in a relationship?

17.3% of couples with someone who cheated stay together after cheating.

It seems that even the strongest love can quickly evaporate when selfishness upsets the balance.

Psychologists distinguish between physical and moral infidelity. Although some of their clients recognize only the first option. And someone understands adultery solely as a combination of the carnal and spiritual sides. In the first case we are talking about sexual intercourse outside the relationship. It may be a single case or a short fling. But there may actually be a second family.
 
The second type is much more sophisticated, so it brings much more suffering to the spouses. Moral infidelity is a special relationship. In this case, participants often remain faithful to their partners. However, their communication is deeply intimate. They balance on the verge of physical infidelity. But they do not cross it, and share intimate details, plans and experiences.

​

Adultery statistics show that 10% (According to Cheating Buster) of adults in a relationship have had another intimate relationship online. This figure is growing every year as the percentage of expectant mothers online increases. This is also confirmed by sociologists' research.

And here's a statistic that relates to teenage and youth orientation. It states that the majority of those who are 16 years old and between 18 and 25 years old have cheated on their partner at least once. In addition, all of those surveyed believe that the Internet sexual revolution was the impetus, not the reason, for cheating. Over the past year the number of real cheating increased by 20%, and the number of online cheating - by 30%.
 

The most popular way to break up with a partner is online breakup," said American psychologist Jean Miller.


The most common reasons for the breakup: misunderstanding, boredom, fatigue. But most often the cause of such a breakup is just a sense of fear and loneliness. It is the key reason that provokes virtual cheating, which explains the statistics of ill health and fears experienced by most of them.
 

But, as they say, for every commodity there is a customer. Sites specifically designed to meet the needs of cheating "guests" have an electronic "god mode" that causes many of them to do things they would never do in real life. Only a few of these sites are also visited by married women who are used to taking men's virtual private lives for granted.
 

Here are the results of studies conducted in various American cities. In particular, in New York City to the rate of real cheating, equal to 4% - the real percentage of cheating on the Web is 40%, and 10% are those who do it without pleasure, although they know about the consequences. Overall, only 20% suffer by "wallowing" in their virtual world to the fullest.
 

And yet, is there a pill for cheating?
 

What we call cheating is really a search for yourself in a virtual society. How virtual life affects reality depends not only on the plot in the movie, but also on many other factors, such as the nationality of the partner.
 

In some cities, virtual partners can even have problems in relationships with real ones. And this is noticeable, for example, in the United States and the United Kingdom. But more often than not, nothing else matters to these couples. Virtual romances are a state of non-stop "tension," they do not always end well.
