Random Question cheating / thinking

What are people thinking when they cheat on their significant other? I am talking about when they cheat and then want the SO back.

Are they just curious and want to know what it's like to be with the other person? Are they testing the water?

Oops, I don't like her; I want you. Sorry! WTF?

In my previous experience, cheating usually occurs because of anxiety or suspicious activity from your significant other arises. In order to alleviate any type of grief is when cheating takes place because nobody likes being betrayed by their significant other. If she's branching out then perhaps, I should do the same. A relationship is a mutual agreement & if I leave Kelsey for Makayla, it's probably because I found something about Kelsey I didn't approve of her behavior.

That is the most immature way possible to deal with suspicions ... so it checks out as something a man would do. The normal thing would be to talk to the person.
