From an evolutionary standpoint, it’s believed that men’s infidelity is driven by a subconscious desire to increase their chances of producing more offspring. The idea is that the more partners a man has, the better his chances of continuing his bloodline. While this may explain their instinctual motivations, the reality is that the reasons why men cheat are often more straightforward.
Overall, it seems that when there is much left to be desired in a relationship—whether it’s emotional reciprocity, physical intimacy or simply a feeling of investment in the relationship—the risk of infidelity can skyrocket. Men need to feel valued, appreciated and connected just as much as women do to feel satisfied within a relationship. And without these key elements, the likelihood of seeking fulfillment elsewhere becomes a real and present danger.
Intriguingly, the fourth and fifth most endorsed reasons for infidelity were closely related to this, as they were also tied to their needs for sex and variety. Novelty seeking—or the search for new and exciting experiences—was the fourth most cited reason at 11%, which is double the rate for women in the study. This desire for newness can drive men to seek out affairs as a way to break whatever monotony they feel within their current relationship.
