Why do men get bored with their wives? They don’t divorce them, but have secret relationships with other women instead? Here are confessions from 5 men

Why when men are bored with their wives, instead of divorcing, do they choose to have an affair?

1. 

My husband and I have been married for 10 years, we understand each other very well, without needing to speak we know what each other wants. But gradually I felt that life was nothing new because my wife was always responsible and devoted everything to me.

Of course, no matter what I did wrong, she wouldn’t leave me, maybe that’s why I gradually had the idea of having an affair. I never thought about divorce and never thought about leaving my wife, I just needed something new.

2. 

For me, my wife is always the best, but sometimes I still feel like I have feelings for other women. In my opinion, men often have many interests, like other people but cannot leave their wives.

3.

My wife and I have been married for 5 years. During these 5 years, conflicts between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law have broken our relationship. My mother always complains about everything, but my wife is a very decisive woman. Over time, I had an affair just to escape problems at home and just wanted to find someone to confide in.

4. 

Once my wife and I divorce, we will have to pay a lot, including property, relationships, children, reputation… So, even if I have an affair, I will never divorce, I don’t want to risk it. Change everything you have.

5. 

Honestly, after living with my wife for a long time, it seems like I no longer have feelings for her, but I still don’t divorce. I think that in addition to love, there is also marital affection. Anyway, we have 2 children together. Even if I have feelings for someone else, I won’t break up with my wife and children.
