Did you ever know that the more satisfied with SEX in their relationship were more likely to cheat on their partner?

People who have a good sex life want more of it As love spread all over on Valentine's Day it's probably an apt time to be a little cynical about romance.

On an analysis on of marital behaviour of 233 newly weds, surprisingly, they found that those who were satisfied with sex in their relationship were more likely to cheat on their partner, possibly because they felt more  positive about sex in general the study suggests. 

Age, attractiveness and sexual history all have a crucial part to play, too, they found. In addition to those who were sexually satisfied in their relationship, younger people and less attractive women were also found to be more likely to be unfaithful. 

The same was not true for men, who wedge conversely more likely to cheat when their partners were less attractive. The researchers found that men who had a higher number of short term sexual relationships prior to marriage were less likely to stay faithful whereas women in this same category were less likely to cheat.

But despite their innate nature, the researchers hope that the findings could lead mental health practitioners to find practical suggestions to help people stay committed to their partners. He said a growing body of research suggests people may be able to boost their psychological ability to employ disengagement or devaluation when tempted by someone else.
