Are there certain things in a relationship that can cause it?<\/p>\n<p><\/span>A: I have no scientific proof on this, but my observations tell me that half of the population is naturally monogamous and half is not. Some people feel comfortable with fidelity and others don&#8217;t. And when you go into a long-term relationship, no one tells you how difficult it&#8217;s going to be. We do our best, but there&#8217;s a tendency for both people to start taking each other for granted and for both members of the couple to get into a really big rut of habits. You get up, you go to work, you come home and make dinner, and you go to bed. All of a sudden you meet someone, and those love chemicals go off and it&#8217;s exciting and you feel alive. Everything that happens chemically at the beginning of a new relationship also happens when you cheat. If you talk to people who have cheated on their partner, they say that it was very, very easy &#8212; even if they feel guilty about it.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: bold;\">Q: Is cheating always a sign that there&#8217;s a problem in the relationship or does cheating sometimes happen to perfectly good relationships?<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: bold;\"><br \/>\n<\/span><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.thatsfit.ca\/2009\/12\/29\/can-you-infidelity-proof-your-relationship\/\" rel=\"bookmark\">Continue reading <em>Can You Infidelity-Proof Your Relationship?<\/em><\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"clear: both; padding: 8px 0 0 0; height: 2px; font-size: 1px; border: 0; margin: 0; padding: 0;\">\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.thatsfit.ca\/2009\/12\/29\/can-you-infidelity-proof-your-relationship\/\" rel=\"bookmark\" title=\"Permanent link to this entry\">Permalink<\/a> | <a href=\"http:\/\/www.thatsfit.ca\/forward\/19291196\/\" title=\"Send this entry to a friend via email\">Email this<\/a> | <a href=\"http:\/\/www.thatsfit.ca\/2009\/12\/29\/can-you-infidelity-proof-your-relationship\/#comments\" title=\"View reader comments on this entry\">Comments<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Filed under: Love &amp; Relationships, Advice Infidelity has been much discussed of late (thanks, Tiger Woods), so we asked sexpert Dr. Trina Read, author of Till Sex Do Us Part, to weigh in on the causes and signs of cheating, and whether there&#8217;s anything you can do to infidelity-proof your marriage.
