4. The fantasy has fizzled. A corollary to fizzling passion occurs when the romance fades and you realize your guy is not the fantasy man you fell in love with. Instead, he’s a mass of irksome habits that are starting to get under your skin. “Women who have false illusions tend to end up cheating because they never really knew the guy to begin with... or hoped he would change,” Alexander says. “When a woman’s Prince Charming turns out to be a frog, women often cheat in hopes of finding a new prince.” 5. Your ego needs a boost. You can be in a relationship with a perfectly wonderful, loving man and still need extra affirmation that you’ve got it goin’ on. Sleeping with someone else is an easy way to remind yourself that you’re desirable. “Even if your partner is reassuring, for whatever reason, it’s not enough,” Orbuch explains, “and so you look elsewhere, so you can feel like you’re lovable.”
