i kind of wondering why cheating on partner is very common nowadays. what are the possible causes? or is it anything interesting on cheating on your partner. please your opinion.

I just think it is lust, and i am not sure there is a cure for it.

People forget the 80/20 rule and believe the grass is greener on the other side of the fence just to get there and find out it is not grass but grass look alike carpet.

Mind you this is about cheating and not really leaving their partner, so i dont think it has to do with grass being greener anywhere, i think it is about man will always want what he thought he cant have

Its nothing but lust.
Most people who have been doing are usually unable to stop it even after they get married.

But doesn't leaving start with cheating?

Not always, some people have the arrangement of Mistress to Oga for ever.
Sometimes, i wonder how our fathers were able to stay sane

But there has to be a solution somehow, but i am yet to see / find that solution

lust, people who cheat r dogs.

LoL, Sorry, but lacking the fear of God isn't going to stop anyone from cheating. I know Atheist who don't cheat on their wives.

There is no solution to not feeling tempted. If married people tell you the truth you will be very miserable about this topic. The problem starts with biology where its a fact that after 2-3 years max, a partner becomes less interesting with regards to intimacy. The drive to engage physically drops drastically and the body seeks a whole new experience. So couples survive in different ways by introducing one or two things here and there eg temporarry separation during official trips, changing locations of intimacy, getting more involved in a higher cause that leaves little time for other things, increased church or group participations etc. all these works and most times still fails FOR any member of the couple that still remains physically attractive or comes more frequently into tempting circumstances. I can tell you stories and stories and stories of couples that have cheated without their spouses suspicion uptil this day and maintain the outloook of a very successful marriage.
The cheating couple does not hate the partner almost in all cases, they just want a new thrill and unfortunately our black society teaches you to pretend even when you are dying. Among whites they call off the wedding and even remain friends afterwards in many cases. Al Gore divorced his wife of many years recently and they openly attributed the reason to loss of attraction - thats the whites for you. For us we will rather remain in that marriage then start to cheat at the back eternally

Sex is cheap. Cheaper than pure water.

lack of respect and inability to stay loyal to a person
