Why is it easy for people to get temped!?

[skyblue1]

I'm not in a relationship at this moment in time. I was having a conversation with my guy friend last night about commitment. I was just wondering why people get temped and cheat on their parnter.

 

Does it have anything to do with bordem or do you just fall out of love?

I think its more about their lack of commitment than boredom or "falling out of love."

A lot of people have low self-esteem, and they seek validation when they cheat.

I think if you get tempted but don't cheat out of willpower alone, or just because it wouldn't be honest, there's a problem. Unless you're briefly tempted (like a craving) and overcome the temptation and go on to live a happy life with your other half, i.e. a once-off thing.

 

But if you're constantly being tempted by other people and resisting out of will-power and strong commitment then you've nothing to be proud of. In that case I disagree with Anna, it's more to do with boredom and falling "out of love".
