Because they don't have the confidence to leave. I know I was one of them and then I finally couldn't take it any longer and I made him leave. And I had 3 small children

Religion teaches us to tolerate things that abuse us and go against common reason.

Sometimes, partners will look a blind eye to their spouses behavior out of hope that things will change. Sometimes they do, but you'll never know if it's a change for good. Sometimes, partners may tolerate it because they desire to cheat as well. Maybe it's "for the children" or because they are keeping up appearances for family or social reasons. There could be religious reasons, like divorce being considered taboo for certain religions. There really is no easy answer to this one.

Because they are in love with them.

Sex is still awesome!

You will never know the answer until you ask the individual. For every question there are MANY answers!!! We all have reasons for the things we do. May not make sense to anyone else save us.

There is a difference between love and sex. Just because you love some one doesn't mean that you are sexually compatable. And just because they "cheat" with someone else doesn't mean that they don't love or respect the person they are with. And don't think I'm just talking talk. Being in that type of situation or having been in it, I know that telling yourself that this is the reason is easy. Believing it in your heart is hard, and harder still is knowing that it's the fact that YOU aren't the one who does it for them no matter how much you may want to or wish to as well as how much you love them is what hurts most. That somehow you have failed them. Sex for men espicially is just that sex.Physical gratification. Not emotional foundation and fulfillment. They stay because love is love and sex can sometimes just be sex. What is more important in the end.??

Because some people, esecially women, seem to lose all interest in sex after marriage. That hot babe who wants to get married will suddenly become a cold fish once she has you hooked. To answer this problem, some people, mostly men, seek comfort and company elsewhere. Additionally, there are lost of things men like, such as oral sex, that some women will not do. Other wives will not engage in some of the kinkier sexual acts that some men may desire. After several years, other women who will participate in these activities and usually enjoy them, start to look pretty good. By then you have a mortgage, a couple of car payments, and a kid or two, do divorce is out of the question. "Cheating" appears to be the only answer. Is it? Maybe, maybe not. Each case is different. I believe some wome are relieved when their men cheat so they will stop trying to make them have sex with them.

I've heard women say they stayed because they didn't want their kids to live seperate from their father. And, they didn't have the resources, family support,or job skills to start over. Its sad to watch someone suffer like this especially when they have kids. I know a woman whose husband cheats constantly and now she's cheating too. I just hope their kids don't adopt their attitudes towards marriage.

I think mainly it's fear that keeps them together. They don't want to be in the dating world again, so they'd rather stay with someone that doesn't treat them the way they deserve to be treated because they think it's more stable than dating. I happen to disagree. If someone cheats on me, I'm done. I can't deal with being treated like dirt. Peace.
