There's no excuse, men and women cheat cause they are unhappy at home. If they loved their partner they wouldn't cheat end off. No point making excuses.

Like so many others, I'm living with a close friend who happens to be my wife. There's no chemistry, no intimacy, no desire. And I reached a point where I decided I want to experience those emotions again. They were so damn hot the 1st time around and that was before I knew a girls arse from her elbow ;)

Primary Reasons for Cheating
With or without individual or marital risk factors there are a number of possible reasons for marital infidelity. Underlying many of the reasons, however, lie a few threads. One is the role of unmet needs.

One partner may be incapable of fulfilling their partner's needs, but far too often, those needs have not been expressed. Marital partners are not mind-readers. Another is the lack of addressing problems directly.

Running away from problems (conflict avoidance) rather than staying and addressing them is another crucial element in communication and commitment in marriage.

Some of the reasons cited as the cause for cheating may include:

Unhappiness/Dissatisfaction: Dissatisfaction with the marriage either emotionally or sexually is common. Marriage is work, and without mutual nurturing couples may grow apart. A sexless marriage is often claimed as a reason for both men and women.

Excitement, compatibility and wanting and needing different things - drives me to want to stray out into the taboo realm of lust and desire...

Ohhh what a great question. Masculine and feminine roles have changed over the last few decades and we are still trying to make sense of it all.

When it comes to men, I think Feminism definitely has something to answer for, as a woman with a masculine attitude will usually refuse to do anything feminine for her man, like wear sexy clothes etc she will want a man to exhibit feminine traits destroying any and all sexual polarity. Her man will then feel neglected and will end up craving sex elsewhere... and she will probably secretly crave a 'real man'... Feminists! ghaaa...

There are obviously abusive and controlling men and women and marriages where both parties have fallen out of love and just sail on for convenience... in which case loneliness is the likely cause for both men and women.

Here we go again with the flagrant discrimination...

Don't hermaphrodites cheat?

I think everyone needs to be someone’s priority, a deep inherent need to be adored, and adore in return, symbiotically invested for mutual benefit. Most people are here because life has introduced other priorities to their relationship and the parties involved are no longer trying for each other as they inevitably did when they first met, or as it would be with someone new, hence IE

Women don't perceive it as cheating. They are preparing for the next one.
