1 Lack of Emotional Connection

As a relationship matures, it turns into a two-edged sword. It could either make a relationship stronger, or it could be the reason for a relationship to slowly break apart. Power struggles become more prevalent, and when a man experiences frequent power struggles with his partner, his natural tendency is to go to a place where he could breathe. The emotional connection that used to be strong would eventually get more vulnerable and open to temptations

Eventually, one would start missing the emotional bond that he used to have with his partner. This would tempt him to look for someone else– someone who would accept him for “who he is.” As he finds this person, he’ll develop feelings for her, even when he’s still committed.
