The short answer is no, but it brings up a concept that's been nagging at me for a while.

What is the precise definition of the word, "cheat?"

If you are not married or engaged, it's not cheating. The exception is if you have promised exclusivity... which you should only do if you're well on the way toward engagement (if you're into that sort of thing).

On three separate occasions I went out with girls while I was dating different girls, and I didn't consider it to be "cheating." In the final analysis, you're either married or you're not, with "engaged" being the point at which exclusivity is implied if it has not been previously explicitly established. Expecting exclusivity without any of that is a covert contract, and covert contracts suck.

I was seriously dating a woman when I met my wife, in fact. I dated both of them for a week or two before I dumped my "girlfriend."

It's hard to discuss your question unless we all agree on the point at which "seeing other people" becomes "cheating."

AWALT. I really believe that with the right time, place, amount of alcohol, level of horniness, where her self esteem is at, her amount slut friends around; That even the goody good Mormon church girl will cheat. They will lean more to the bad decision than the right decision. Remember that feels are reals and women exist in that emotional moment. It is so much easier to go with the lust than think things through to the end.

Does that mean all women cheat? Of course not. Will all women cheat given the right circumstances? Of course they will.

All women WANT to cheat. Just as all men do.

The answer is nuanced. Do they have any self control? Are they afraid of the consequences?

It's hard to get a true picture of what is happening inside the average marriage, but the research that I have seen (plus anecdotal evidence) points to the fact that women are not really into married sex. It's women that go off sex within a marriage / LTR, not men.

Women are novelty seekers. This is why womens fashion makes 10x what mens fashion makes. Men are quite happy with their favourite shoes, suit, pullover, coat. They will wear it until the items are worn out. Now think about how women buy clothes. The often don't even take the labels off - as soon as they have it, they want something new. The sercret of retail is to mens clothes on the top floor or the basement - because the money is in womens clothes.

Women used to fear the consequences of giving in to their desire for strange cock. The penalties in the middle ages were harsh. In many cultures, women would have their eyes put out with red hot pokers or a horseshoe. Some would be banished (a certain death sentence). In many cases, the village would just declare them 'a witch' and burn them to death.

now, if a woman gets bored of her husband, she just files for divorce, gets the house, the kids and a 20 year income stream worth probably more than the house, and everybody 'celebrates her journey'.

So, yeah, they all cheat. Which explains why men are MGTOW and population is declining (if you net off the hoardes of muslim invaders).

I asked my girlfriend and she said she would never cheat on me. So the answer is no.

Not if the guy is high status and progressing in life. And even then they still might.

personally i think that if a woman has access to a man that has higher SMV than you, and if that man finds said woman attractive, then she is going to cheat at some point. i believe that most men in relationships are oblivious to the woman cheating; i believe we don't give women enough credit for their ability to cover their tracks. i think women's infidelity is only ever found out if the woman has totally stopped caring about maintaining the relationship with her boyfriend/husband.

I’ll go out on a whim and say not all women cheat. Not every girl is on Tinder. Not every girl goes to bars. Not every girl posts provocative pictures on the gram.

But they’re still human and they’re not perfect little angels. Just like many of us.
