5 reasons for cheating in a relationship or marriage!
When we enter into a relationship or get married, each of us believes that it will be a relationship for life. Unfortunately, many people fail to find their soulmate and start living together with them. This is precisely why many couples decide to divorce, although divorce should never be taken lightly. One must first go through many challenges, difficulties and obstacles, and only then decide to take this last step.
Dissatisfaction in marriage manifests itself in different ways - by arguing, keeping silent, carrying feelings of guilt, losing intimacy or cheating. Here are 5 common psychological reasons for cheating in a partnership or marriage.
Emotional needs
If you feel emotionally unfulfilled and empty, you subconsciously start looking for another person who can provide that for you. This reason is mainly related to the feeling of insecurity, rejection and mistrust of the partner's feelings. People who have had emotional problems in childhood may often seek additional emotional charge, because they subconsciously think that emotional wounds will heal as much as they receive emotional validation.
Emotional satisfaction
In contrast to emotional needs, emotional satisfaction refers to the desire to feel good. Cheating in some people arouses a special adrenaline rush, good energy, something that still makes them feel attractive.
Sexual pleasure
The reason for this type of deception is the satisfaction of sexual needs, and the cause is most often poor sexual communication and energy with the partner. However, it may happen that a person becomes involved in this type of deception for a similar reason as those who seek emotional satisfaction - the need for constant confirmation of their own attractiveness.
A new spark
Often, both partners live in the delusion that the feelings from the beginning of the relationship should last forever. Sparks turn into infatuation and passion, and then mature love appears, in which a person is most sincerely loved.
That spark from the beginning of a relationship is often lost during a long relationship or marriage, but some people are still looking for that feeling.
Love
When the paths diverge and the love in a relationship fades, there is a lack of communication and effort to maintain the relationship. Love needs to be nurtured, and some people begin to realize that they do not know their partner at all and that this is not true love.
A person in a relationship or marriage can meet someone with whom they share common interests, outlook on life and feel extremely attractive around them. However, if the relationship is good, nurtured and the love in the relationship is established, we do not look at such meetings as true love that we have been missing, but as a meeting of friendly soulmates.
