Why is a man afraid to admit to cheating?

20.10.2024 05:10

Even when the fact of adultery is obvious, many men desperately deny what they have done. Why?
The answer is shockingly simple.

A man does not admit to cheating because he does not want to. It would seem that everything is simple - he cheated, confessed, packed his suitcase and went to the beautiful fairy who is waiting and missing.

But the play of life often unfolds according to a completely different scenario. Instead of talking directly and frankly with his wife, he begins to lie.

The further, the more. Sometimes the imagination of such comrades amazes even seasoned minds.

It must be said that some individuals give up quite quickly, while others, on the contrary, manage to maneuver among lies for years. You can have no illusions about yourself. He does this not because he suddenly realized that he loves you and does not want to lose you, but exclusively because of himself. He is afraid.

As unexpected as it may sound, yes, imagine that your man is also capable of experiencing fear. The fact is that in all uncomfortable situations we experience stress, to overcome which the body needs certain resources, time, work on oneself, and so on.

People who have ever experienced stress understand how terrible it is to be in it and try in every way to avoid repetition. This is where the fear of getting into a stressful situation comes from.

Of course, it is not broadcast so directly, but is covered by any excuses and reasons. In this case, from the desire to save the family to the unwillingness to divide the jointly acquired property.

No, these reasons in themselves are also quite weighty, but then, without fear at the forefront, it would be logical to tell everything.

Confess what you did, repent and continue to look for ways out of the current situation together. But such a development of events is unacceptable to most men, as it implies a psycho-emotional shock and requires a lot of work on your inner world in order to overcome your fears and return to a normal existence.

Another reason to take this secret to the grave is the unwillingness to be bad. Few people are happy with other people's tears and accusations from all sides.

After all, we were taught from childhood that you can’t be bad boys and girls, for them the hour of reckoning always comes and all sorts of boomerangs.

Who would want to tell the whole world about a sin and wait for heavenly punishment? It is much easier to simply deny what was done and only occasionally secretly feel guilty.
