Why Cheating in Relationship is Not The Answer

Cheating in a relationship is a dishonest act, which is to have another relationship outside the existing relationship. Everyone has their own definition of how some actions can be called cheating. But in between many forms of cheating, cheating is still wrong. And even though it's wrong, there are still a lot of people who do this kind of thing. Many things cause it. But in the end, cheating is really not the answer for their own problem. Why is cheating not the right decision to take?

Lots of disadvantage can be obtained by having an affair. Besides not solving the root of the problem. Cheating can make them no longer be trusted by others if their actions are known later on. Why? Because the researchers found that in unmarried couples, individual who had an affair is likely to have an affair again in subsequent relationships, even three times greater. Once their partner suspect them having an affair, then their partner will continue to suspect them. And also, those who think that they will be cheated, are four times more suspicious of the relationship that is being lived at this time.

 

For why they cheat, there are many reasons though. One of them, in a study said that people who cheat sometimes expect cheating can improve their relationship with their partner. It may be difficult to understand the connection, however, some of them think by having an affair can fill the emptiness that has been felt, but does not dare to be expressed when they are in the main relationship. So they don't need to break up because they feel unfulfilled. But actually, if their actions are known by their partner, instead of getting better, a relationship that has been carefully established can become messy. Turn around hurting their partner that they don’t want to be hurt in the first place.

What to do then if we really want to avoid that? First, communicate with our partner a lot about what needs to be improved in the relationship. Just tell the truth if we think it really can not be ignored anymore. One of the keys to a long-lasting relationship is to continually want to fix that can be fixed, and avoid argument that is unnecessary. Don’t have to always make a big deal out of everything, just what we think really need to be fixed. The rest depends on how the partner will respond later. And finally, if we really can't find another common ground after having been discussed many times with our partner, may be we can decide to cut off relations. It might sound a little too harsh. But it’s better than having an affair and ultimately hurt many parties involved.
