In the long history of marriage, cheating is undoubtedly a bombshell that can blow an otherwise peaceful life to pieces in an instant. And when men are caught cheating, they often throw out various excuses to try to excuse their mistakes. These excuses not only chill the injured partner, but also make them heartbroken.
"I was just impulsive and confused"
This is one of the common excuses used by many men who cheat. They attribute their infidelity to impulsiveness and confusion, as if this lessens their culpability. However, this defense is really weak. Marriage requires loyalty and responsibility, not impulsive indulgence. Impulsiveness does not become a reason to betray a marriage, but it reveals their contempt for marriage and disrespect for their partners. If you really cherish your marriage, how can you be easily swayed by impulse?
"She took the initiative to seduce me, I couldn't refuse"
Placing the responsibility on the third party The person who claimed that it was the other party's active seduction that caused him to make the mistake is even more infuriating. A responsible and principled man should know how to refuse temptation and stick to his moral bottom line. Attributing the cause of infidelity to the seduction of others only shows that they lack self-control and loyalty to their marriage. This kind of excuse is not only a secondary injury to your partner, but also a devaluation of your own personality.
“I am under too much pressure and need to find comfort”
Some men will use the excuse of high work pressure and unsatisfactory life to claim that they cheated in order to find spiritual comfort. But marriage should be a haven for supporting each other and facing pressure together. If when encountering difficulties, instead of choosing to communicate with your partner, you seek comfort through cheating, what is the point of such a marriage? This kind of defense is just an excuse for one's own selfishness and cowardice.
These excuses made by men after cheating are all evading their own responsibilities and trying to cover up their faults. They do not realize that the harm caused by cheating to their partners is irreparable and the trust in the marriage is also a devastating blow.
Summary
Cheating in marriage is a great harm to the partner, and the various excuses given by men after being caught cheating are even more chilling. Whether it's in the heat of the moment, being seduced, or looking for comfort, it's not a valid reason for cheating. In a marriage, both parties should remain loyal, work together, and actively communicate and resolve problems when they encounter them, rather than choosing to betray. Only in this way can a marriage be happy for a long time.
