S/O to my previous post

I think I am mostly mad cuz I can see myself falling for a guy like the mentioned in my previous post. Not the cheating man part but the tall, handsome, educated successful guy who travels occasionally for work. According to my friend this guy has the perfect life. Nice trips with the wife, active sex life and great history and chemistry together.

Question that comes to my mind is - Why do some men do this? Are they willing to risk it all? I guess they dont think that the truth will come out.

Also How can one protect themselves from ever falling for a guy like this? they seem so normal and perfect on paper - what are the warning signs?

    OK take a step back. This guy is telling you he has sex with his wife 5 times a week but WHO really checked? I bet you 1 million Nest dollars this is BS.  This guy obviously needs people to admire him. He has a superiority complex. I bet if you could be a fly in his house, you'd be surprised...

    i agree with Land O.  His wife probably has the upper hand in the marriage so when he travels he feels as though he needs to get back at her some way by cheating to show her who really is boss.  Like he has control but when push comes to shove his wife holds all the cards.

    I am confused with this comment... it almost sounds like you are blaming the wife for the man's action?

    Just make integrity one of the nonnegotiables you look for in a mate.  Easy-peasy.  Guys who think it's okay to cheat don't keep dishonesty confined to that one specific area of life, after all.

    sorry about that. I am not blaming anyone.  Just stating that maybe he feels like he has no control at home so when he is away, he can control.  

     

    I wasn't cheated on though so I have no experience with it at all.
