There's a really good article on ivillage about this, and I think it has a hint of truth. I don't know why men cheat having never been one myself, nor been cheated on by a true boyfriend. But as for women... maybe the same is for men too. Some women cheat because 1) they can 2) they aren't into their boyfriend 3) they have low self esteem and need that pumped up 4) setting up relationship #2 before leaving #1 5) they have trouble saying 'no' 6) they aren't committed.

I think women cheat just as much as men do; women just hide it better. But seriously I asked all my male friends this same questions and they pretty much summed it up to "a guy could be with the most beautiful girl in the universe and this girl has the best personality but he will cheat just for the chase and the excitment. (please don't think I am conceite when I say this) But I am a very attractive female (22) with a great career and my boyfriend cheated on me with a 40 year old bartender with rotten teeth. I was devasted. Some men are pigs and just wanna play the field. But lets remember women can be just as devious.
