He Cheated On You And You Want Him Back… What Do You Do?

Discovering a partner has cheated on you can be devastating. You might feel hurt, angry, sad, or even physically sick. A study published in The Journal of Sex Research set out to explore this very topic. The study used an online survey to ask people who had cheated in a romantic relationship about the reasons for their infidelity. The study identified eight key motivating factors that contribute to infidelity. But they do offer a helpful framework for better understanding why people cheat. Maybe you just discovered your partner cheated. You might want to make your partner go through the same emotions so they really understand the pain they caused you.
