Something on the side?

Would You Cheat On Your Spouse?

The BBC offers a tantalising test for those of us who are curious as to how likely we are to cheat on our partner at some point. It’s a bit of fun but I suspect not very scientific.

In truth, none of us can ever say. Put into the right place at the right time with the right person, few us really know how we’ll react. Sexual chemistry is beyond the compass of rationality. In a world where people get murdered

Many people don’t even know what adultery is, incredible as that may seem. I quick look on Yahoo Answers for Adultery reveals questions like “What makes homosexual behavior different from fornication and adultery?”, “What is the difference between rape and adultery?” and “is it adultery to have relationship after husband committed adultery and divorce is in process?”.

If people are really that unsure as to what it means to commit adultery, you have to conclude that they’d actually find it pretty easy to do. If you don’t know where the boundaries are its very easy to step over them.

All that holds you back is your sense of morality. If it’s strong enough to withstand temptation then you’ll stay on the straight and narrow for all your life. But if you’ve got a sense of curiousity and the opportunity presents itself…

The statistics speak for themselves.

So the answer is actually that you very possibly would. You can deny it here and now, sat looking at your computer screen with your partner busying themselves around in the background. Put dropped into a situation with an attractive stranger who can say for sure? Cheats often stray when they’re least expecting to.
