Nowadays extra marital affairs are becoming common, people are looking for love outside the relationship. Let us tell you what is different in this relationship between men and women.

Marriage is a relationship that is based on trust and love. But when this relationship starts to deteriorate, many times people start looking for support outside. This is called an extramarital affair. The interesting thing is that men and women move towards such relationships for different reasons in this case. Let us tell you what is the difference between the affairs of both and due to what reasons it happens. 

Why do men have extra marital affairs?

• Relationship experts believe that most men move towards affairs in search of physical attraction and novelty.
• Many times they feel that their married life has become monotonous.
• For some men, an affair is a kind of ego boost or an exciting experience.
• Research also shows that the biggest reason for affairs among men is physical satisfaction.

For men, it is often limited to just attraction or adventure. Many times they do not consider it a serious relationship. But this step deeply affects their married life.

Why do women move in this direction?

• For women, this is a little different. Experts say that women are mostly drawn to affairs when they feel that their partner does not understand their feelings and emotions.
• They are looking for someone who can give them emotional support.
• If there is a lack of communication in a married relationship or the partner does not care, then women start looking for attention and love outside.
• This means that for women, affair is not just related to physical attraction, but is also related to care and understanding.

Many times, after facing neglect in a relationship for years, women get attracted to someone who can listen to them, appreciate them and understand their importance. That is why their affairs are mostly related to emotional attachment.

Expert opinion

Psychologist Dr Abhishek Saurabh believes that extra marital affair cannot be ignored just by calling it "cheating". There are many personal and social reasons behind it.

• For men, affairs mostly happen due to temporary attraction or excitement.
• For women, this becomes a way to fulfill unfulfilled emotional needs in the marital relationship.

Dr. Saurabh says that in such cases, just blaming is not the right solution. The real need is to communicate openly in the relationship. When couples share their problems and try to understand each other's needs, the situation can improve to a great extent.

Impact on family

Whether a man or a woman has an affair, it has the biggest impact on relationships and family. Once the trust is broken, it becomes difficult to regain it. Its negative impact is also seen on children. Many times children themselves suffer emotional stress by seeing the fight between their parents. The reasons for an affair may be different for a man and a woman, but the result is the same. Weakening of the relationship and breaking of trust. Experts believe that if there are problems in married life, they should be solved through communication and counseling, not an affair. An affair may give happiness for some time, but its effect remains for a long time and can also break the relationship.
