What are the most common reasons guys cheat? Whether you have personally experienced it before or not, it is an unfortunate truth that guys have a stronger reputation than women for cheating. Not all guys, of course, but there is no getting away from the fact that a larger percentage of men cheat on their partners than women. Have you ever taken a second to wonder why this actually might be? We know that this isn’t a general thing, but we don’t have time to take it on a case by case basis, so here are just a few of the most most common reasons guys cheat.

1. Bad Behaviour Rush
There are some guys out there who just get a thrill from behaving badly, and one of the most popular ways to indulge their bad boy side is to go ahead and cheat on their partner. This is one of the most common reasons guys cheat.
2. Second Adolescence
If you began your relationship when you were both still quite young, he might run the risk of experiencing a second adolescence in which he feels the need to act out, primarily by running off and cheating.
3. Narcissist
If a man is a narcissist, something that he will do to boost his ego is to cheat, proving to himself that he can get any girl he wants even if it at the expense of his current partner.
4. Communication Breakdown
If the two of you are having difficulty connecting and communicating with one another, something that he might be tempted to do is go off and find a short-term, temporary connection with someone else.
If you're looking to engage your partner in intriguing conversations, why not try some hypothetical questions for couples? These fun queries will not only keep the conversation lively but also stimulate deep thoughts and potentially reveal insights about each other's personality and thought processes.
5. Insecurity
As guys get older, they sometimes start to feel insecure about themselves, and this can lead to trying to bed another woman simply to feel like they are back in their prime again.

6. Not Built for Monogamy
Some guys (and girls for that matter) simply aren’t built for monogamy and one on one relationships. To avoid heartbreak, everyone needs to be honest about this before feelings get too entangled.
