I've seen a man on here who describes himself as 'happily married' yet he's wanting sexual experiences with other people.

This depresses me enormously. If I fell in love with someone and he cheated on me it would break my heart.

I just want to know if men have less morals about cheating than women, and how common is it? Do cheating men have a conscience or sense of hypocrisy?

Please restore my faith in men.

i can only base my answer on the friends and family i have and their morals - i would probably say that guys have less scrupals regarding the subject.

I would like to think that I wouldn't act that way but until that situation arises(if it does) then i wont know for sure

Yes there are people in this world, Men or Women, who like want there cake and eat far to much ..... yes it is a pretty sad world where one person is not enough for the fuckers that think it is ok to get married and then shag anything that is offered ........ but hey, its part of life. You just have to hope that when you find the person you want to spend the rest of your life with they want to too

If i found out my husband had been 'puttin it about' ....... let me assure you he would be walking around with one less bollock ........

It's hard to say whether guys are more likely to cheat than women, I only know women who'd be the same as me and that's NO CHEATING on a partner. BUT quite a few guys have wanted to use me to cheat on their partners, but I know what it feels like so it's NO WAY for me I'm just glad that I can usually tell and get them to own up.

I think men and women are equally as guilty of it. While there are those of us with scruples, there are those without in both male and female camps. You can't really say either one or the other is more likely to do it.

I've been on the receiving end of a cheater and it's just not funny at all, luckily I found out and ended the relationship while we were still dating.

I'm with tryst, no one love is more likely to cheat than the other. In my opinion it's not something that's worth worrying about until you have to worry about it. If you look in the advice section there's a topic in there about trust issues, the two are inter related in that way. If you worry about cheating too much, it can destroy a relationship.

I got in touch with my feminine side. She emailed me back saying if I ever contacted her again she'd call the police.

I think it's a very sterotypical view that men cheat easily. Its supposedly because we can't control our sexual lust, which i find absurd.

I could never cheat on someone when i find my true love, i would just be greatful enough to have found that person

It's hardly logical to assume that because one man cheats, every man must be a potential cheater.

I've been burned in the past by women, but I'm still willing to give new ones a chance!

Both sexes are equal on this. I've cheated, been cheated on and cheated with.

Theres a lot of reasons for it, but I think most of it comes down to boredom.

Prime example; you're in a relationship with someone where there is a lot of physical chemistry but very little in common. Physical chemistry is great, but it burns out very quickly and once it does, what do you have left? You might have feelings for one another but really you're just in the relationship for the sake of it. There are very few people out there who intentionally hurt other people's feelings, but rather than face an uncomfortable situation they'll cheat to save confrontation or even (as bizarre as this may sound) so as not to hurt their partner.

Its not as black and white as all men/women being cunts. Everybody, and I mean everybody will cheat if they're put in the right scenario. Its human nature.

Another example could be a couple that have a lot in common, but problems being physical..by maybe one of the parties. So maybe they can come to an agreement about playing away.

Mind you, from what I know people in open relationships normally have great physical relationships.

Seems to me, its the opening posters suggestion that he is cheating.

But to be honest, I'm not sure I would cheat. Definitely not be deceitful.
