re: What % of people in a committed relationship cheat

70-75%

None of my friends are cheating on their spouses. None of my wife's friends are cheating on their spouses

You have no way of knowing this

Yep. ALL women will cheat, and they discuss it among themselves......they told him they didn't know to cover their own arse.

Marry a chubby middle class woman, that has pushed out a few pups and you cut down on that 99% quite a bit. Not many guys chasing chubbies.....

That you know of.

If they were, one of my friends should have gotten caught at some point over the last 20 years, right? Word of something like that gets out if it happened. My point is that it's not as common in every group as some on here seem to think.

You have obviously never been around Dependas on a military installation. All out fatties bed hopping especially during deployments.

That's kind of the theme. People don't realize how vastly different people who run in different circles can be. Those who hang around the "fun" girls tend to have a viewpoint that all girls love to throw it around. Those who hang around the prudes think stories of girls who like to throw it around are fake.

In college, I had a roommate who's girlfriend hung out with sloots. Nothing against them, but they went to the bar looking to hook up. I remember one of them saying she thought ~70% of girls at LSU had an abortion . When you hang around nothing but sloots, it's all you know.

Pretty much all of the women I’ve known to cheat were overweight. There’s always someone willing to have sex with any woman.

Now I gotta check the phone bill.....

50%?

There are 2 people in the relationship and if one person does then it's 1/2

Do I win?

In terms of long term affairs I'd say probably pretty low, maybe 5-10% and are the most serious. In terms of a one night stand or a vulnerable moment of "crossing the line" which can be a lot of things I'd say more like 50-60% though probably only half of them ever get caught or fess up.

Cheating isn't just sleeping with someone, it can be other physical contact (kissing, feeling, etc.) or emotional fulfillment that should be reserved for you SO. That can make this percentage pretty high.
