Infidelity

Infidelity is a matter which causes great amount of pain. Most people will, at some point in their lives, experience this, whether they are on the receiving end or not.

Cheating on your partner can ruin not only your relationship, but also your family. There are obviously different levels of infidelity, from a mere drunken kiss to having a sexual affair for years. According to a survey conducted by the BBC, one in five men had been unfaithful, where as only one in ten women admitted to it. Men are seen as being more sexually charged than women, which is probably why more men are unfaithful. Cheating, even though sometimes forgiven, ruins trust in a relationship. It takes a very long time to regain that trust, sometimes it never returns.

There has been recent news of this in the media. Examples would be of actress Sandra Bullock's husband cheating on her, and Cheryl Cole's husband cheating also. It is a highly publicised act, being followed closely by the press. I feel that the press has huge influence on whether celebrities in the media take back their cheating husbands or not, as they fear their status' as role models.

Although I feel there is no need for infidelity (if you can't be faithful, stay single) I can see why some may feel trapped in a loveless relationship, or one that causes them misery. However, I feel that in these sorts of situations, the said person should leave their partners before starting a relationship with someone else. I feel that there is no other excuse for infidelity. What does everyone else think? I have provided a link below from the BBC with facts about infidelity which is an interesting read.
