3. Low self-esteem means a greater likelihood of cheating.
One myth about infidelity is the saying that people who cheat must be handsome, wealthy and self-confident, and thus never satisfied with only one partner.
If there is a fact you should know about adultery, it is that many people who cheat are not like that at all. Cheaters actually come in many forms, and a large number of them have low self-esteem and lack maturity. No matter how much love they receive from their partner, it is never enough.
The insecure individual who engages in infidelity is driven by a powerful desire to conquer new people in order to feel loved. They crave others’ reassurance of their self-value. However, whilethe cheating provides an immediate lift to their self-image, this boost is temporary, leading to even deeper feelings of emptiness and misery.
This is why, in addition to investing in the relationship, each partner must continually work on building their self esteem and aspiring to be the best person they can. At the same time, each individual must appreciate their partner and the wonderful things their relationship brings.
