Cutting To The Chase On Cheating

Cutting to the Chase on Cheating

By Linda R. Young, Ph.D.

Cheating will never go away so let’s cut to the chase on what causes infidelity. Somewhere inside, most of us probably know that we are not an inherently monogamous species.  But that fact is so disconcerting that we downplay or deny the chasm that lies between endorsing a value of monogamy (over 90% of us do) and upholding it (somewhere between 25% and 60% of us don’t according to various studies).  My practice has taught me that there are just three necessary and sufficient conditions at the root infidelity.  Any story I have ever heard can be fully explained by Yearning, Entitlement and Supply (Y.E.S.)!

1. Yearning (Desire)

Nature, nurture and the cheating partner’s past and present relationships all contribute to yearning. 

• Hormonally, we are not all created equal.  Testosterone increases the “gotta have it now” urge in both sexes.  “High T” men feel more urgent and frequent sexual desire than “Low T” women. Seventy year-olds don’t usually feel as horny as twenty year-olds.

• Neurotransmitters like dopamine contribute to thrill seeking and risk-taking.  Some of us naturally have higher levels than others and drugs like ecstasy and cocaine amp up the dopamine system in our brains.

• Children who are deprived of unconditional, consistent love and affection from caregivers often develops a skin hunger or hole of deprivation that no single partner may seem good enough or loving enough to fill when they grow up.

• Children who are raised with harsh proscriptions against sex often desire the forbidden fruit.  They may also become the most moralistic adults in an effort to keep their own yearnings at bay (which explains the hypocrisy we so often see among busted conservative religious and political leaders).  It is probably not a coincidence that Utah has the highest number of Internet searches of any state for the term “hot girls” http://www.google.com/insights/search/#q=hot%20girls&geo=US&date=1%2F2009%2012m&cmpt=q

• Committed adult relationships that have lost their luster or become barnacled with resentments also create a breeding ground for feelings of deprivation.  Deprivation increases yearning for something else, something more, something new, something better. 

2. Entitlement (Permission)

At the moment of crossing an intimate boundary that a couple has agreed upon or assumed (whether sexual, behavioral, verbal or emotional), the cheating partner believes he or she deserves what is being experienced with the new partner.  Whether it’s holding a gaze ten seconds too long, a drunken night with a stripper, feeling “in love” again, getting revenge, finding an understanding ear, fulfilling a kinky fantasy or having hundreds of hook-ups it comes down to the same key ingredient: giving oneself permission. 

Urges, upbringing and unmet needs may be the engines that drive cheating, but what releases the brakes is a feeling of entitlement in the moment.  In every case of infidelity immediate gratification trumps long-term consequences at the moment the line is crossed.  “I never meant to hurt you”, and “I didn’t mean for it to happen” is really about not meaning to ever get caught! 

3. Supply (Availability)

If there is no opportunity to meet willing partners, straying can’t happen. Celebrities, gorgeous people and folks with power and status have greater access to willing partners.  So do people who come into close physical or emotional contact with others for work or play.

If availability suddenly rises, people who are used to having fewer choices may be ill-equipped to resist attractive others.  Sometimes availability suddenly increases because an individual becomes more attractive (loses a lot of weight, becomes wealthy or famous…think Jon & Kate).  Sometimes it increases because he or she enters a new environment that is like a candy store (homemaker gets a new job that includes travel with mostly male co-workers).  A poorly developed set of brakes and pent up demand combine to open the floodgates.

Just because we are predisposed to non-monogamy doesn’t mean we can’t uphold it.  What it really comes down to is letting go of trying to have our cake and eat it too – something will always be sacrificed.  I’m all for whatever line a couple agrees to draw together as long as they acknowledge that all three of the above factors must be addressed we are to move from Y.E.S. to NO on cheating.

Dating Decisions: Good, Fast and Cheap

There’s an old adage in project management that says it’s impossible to create a product or service that is good, fast and cheap. What is good and cheap won’t be fast, what is good and fast won’t be cheap, and what is fast and cheap won’t be good. So picking two out of three of these attributes is as good as it gets and there will be trade-offs that we must be prepared to accept no matter which two we choose.  How might this principle play out in relationships?  

Good, Fast and Cheap in Relationships

·         Good = High quality.  High-quality is defined differently depending on whether you’re looking for a short-term coupling or long-term relationship. Built-to-last high quality attributes include emotional stability, flexibility, ability to accept partner influence, compassion, humor, empathy, trustworthiness, integrity, responsibility and assertive communication. While sexual chemistry is also an important feature of built-to-last relationships, short-term high quality is often exclusively defined by sex appeal.

·         Fast = Quick partner selection and connection.  When selection is fast (as in love-at-first-sight or hooking up), overt characteristics such as level of physical attractiveness, symbols of wealth or status, charisma, flirtatiousness and “chemistry” are easiest to identify.  What’s under the hood may be very different from shiny first impressions.

·         Cheap = Low investment of effort, emotional risk, time together, money, care or attention to a prospective partner.

What Can You Expect in Your Relationship?

·         Good + Cheap is Slow. 

If little effort, emotional risk, time, money, personal disclosure, care and attention are devoted to the relationship compared to other arenas of your life, it will take longer to develop and flourish and might fizzle from lack of investment before ever taking off.  A good partner is likely to move on to another prospect that is not so “cheap”. 

·         Cheap + Fast is Low Quality. 

Sometimes people deliberately go for a cheap, mediocre product or service because it is quick, inexpensive, easy to obtain and provides immediate gratification - like a drive-through cheeseburger or Two Buck Chuck wine.  I call these “snack food relationships”.  The booty call on a lonely night or the re-bound guy who helps you lick your wounds are designed to fulfill short-term desires or needs.  You don’t fully investigate or care much about short or long-term quality and if you make daily diet out of them you will feel malnourished down the road.

·         Good + Fast is Expensive.

In the love-at-first-sight relationship, on face value your partner seems to have every short and long-term quality you desire. A fast expensive response would be immediately telling life stories, revealing secrets, fears and desires and having sex shortly after meeting. You stop dating others, focus all your attention on each other and commit so quickly that you may miss important features or values that you typically come to know over time.  How does your partner respond to a major stressor, life transition, your family members and your bad habits?  How do you respond to theirs?  How does lovemaking click in nine or ten months when the heady hormonal infatuation rush subsides?

This relationship is costly to life balance in the short run (as your boss, co-workers, friends and family members may point out to you when you drop everything to be together), and may or may not be costly in the long run as your true natures and personality dynamics surface over time. In some interesting, perhaps counter-intuitive research on love-at-first-sight relationships, Naumann found that over half the people who fell in love at first sight married the partner and three quarters of those stayed married, beating the national average.

If you define “good” by high quality short-term attributes such as physical attractiveness and sex appeal and want a fast connection (which usually means sex in this case), your coupling will probably be expensive in a transactional way.  Wining and dining, money, favors or trinkets may be bartered.

What is Your Love Decision Style?

As you think about your dating patterns, how would you characterize your choices? Out of Good, Fast & Cheap, which two do you tend to pick? The way I see it, if you’re looking for a high quality, built-to-last relationship, you won’t find it quickly and cheaply. If you’ve found someone who possesses about 80% of the characteristics that attract you in the short-term and suit your personality and values in the long term that’s good enough. Go slowly enough to see your partner’s warts and all, and don’t be so cheap with your time and attention that you miss an intimate relationship altogether.

List Of 9 Herbs For Self Medication!!!

HERE IS A LIST OF SOME OF TOP HEALING HERBS THAT MAY BE IN YOUR CUPBOARD:

1. ROSEMARY has shown a lot of cancer-protective potential.” Frying, broiling, or grilling meats at high temperatures creates HCAs (heterocyclic amines), potent carcinogens implicated in several cancers. Rosemary contains carnosol and rosemarinic acid, two powerful antioxidants that destroy the HCAs.

2. OREGANO this super herb is very rich in anti-oxidant phytochemical flavonoids and phenolic acids. Oregano oil has been classically used as a disinfectant, an aid for ear, nose, & throat/respiratory infections, candida, and any sort of bacterial or viral conditions.

3. DILL contains calcium and iron, and the oils in the plant may help to neutralize carcinogens, which are substances that have been shown to cause cancer. Dill also has a number of beneficial healing properties for the digestive system and has been used since ancient times to treat heartburn and diarrhea.

4. CAYENNE highly effective pain reliever and is an ingredient in some over-the-counter pain relieving creams. It is also great for improving circulation, healing sore throats, and stimulating sweating to help relieve cold symptoms.

5. CILANTRO the carboxylic acid in cilantro binds to heavy metals such as mercury in the blood and carries them out of the body. Their removal reverses the toxin buildup that causes chronic fatigue, joint pain and depression.

6. MINT counteract nausea and vomiting, promote digestion, calm stomach muscle spasms, relieve flatulence, and ease hiccups. Menthol, the aromatic oil in peppermint, also relaxes the airways and fights bacteria and viruses. Menthol interferes with the sensation from pain receptors, thus it may be useful in reducing headache pain.

7. CURRY POWDER could relieve your pain. It might also: Prevent colon cancer and Alzheimer's Disease

Parsley diuretic herbs such as parsley prevent problems such as kidney stones and bladder infections and keep our body’s plumbing running smoothly by causing it to produce more urine.

BASIL it is anti-inflammatory and antibacterial, as well as being a good source of magnesium and antioxidants. Medicinally, it is used to treat constipation, indigestion, diabetes and hypothyroidism (under active thyroid).
