20.02.2024 05:10

Quite often the female half of humanity asks the question – why does a husband have a mistress?

There are a number of reasons why he does this.

A man always wants to take a leading position in the family. He subconsciously reaches out to a woman who sees him as a real man.

If he has a feeling that he is not appreciated and respected, then he will look for these emotions on the side, where he will be admired. If he does not get what he wants from his wife, then his mistress can give it to him.

Dissatisfaction with intimate life – because quite often over time in married couples intimate life is not maintained at the level that was at the beginning of the relationship.

Therefore, if a man does not get satisfaction from his wife, he goes in search of adventures to diversify sexual relations. Because over time, the wife gets tired of the desire to experiment, to introduce innovations into sex. It is because of this that he gets a young mistress who is ready for sexual experiments.

Lack of communication, mutual understanding – if there is no trust between spouses, then the likelihood of cheating increases dramatically.

If a man lacks the understanding and communication he wants from his wife, then over time he begins to look for it on the side. Especially if the marriage was not initially based on love.

Seeking Shelter – Sometimes every person wants to have a place where he can be alone and be alone.

Men also have this need, especially if they have problems at work, their wife is nagging them at home, or they are simply overcome by some kind of worries.

That's why you want to have a place where you'll be warmed, listened to, and understood. If a man doesn't get this in his family, then he gets a mistress to relax, who will listen, understand, and more.

Excessive jealousy - if a man is overly jealous and controls every step, then he will certainly have a desire to cross the forbidden line.

Being subjected to total control, he decides to cheat. Therefore, you need to control your jealousy, so as not to give an extra reason for the appearance of a mistress.

Lost love for wife – it often happens that feelings between spouses pass or weaken. As a result, desire and interest in intimate life disappear. Therefore, the man begins to look to the side and have a mistress.

New love – no one is immune from new love, including a married man. He can really fall in love. But the only question is – will this relationship be happy against the backdrop of new love?

From this we can conclude that there are many reasons why a man gets a mistress. However, taking these reasons into account, you can try to avoid such a situation.
