Science Says These 10 Types Of People Are The Most Likely To Cheat

#1 Former Cheaters

The old saying is true, "once a cheater, always a cheater." You've heard that a leopard doesn't change its spots? A cheater will never be faithful. Research from the University of Alabama shows that people who have a history of cheating are more likely to do it again.

#2 Social Media Addicts

We all knew this was a fact, but now it's been proven. Your partner isn't spending all of that time looking at that little screen just playing Candy Crush or texting family members. A Cyberpsychology, Behavior and Social Networking study showed that people who use more social media platforms cheat more often than those who don't. People who are active Facebook users or Tweeters are more likely to engage in relationship confrontations that could ultimately result in cheating, breakups or divorce. Maybe the best takeaway from this is to occasionally put the phone down and, you now, talk to your main squeeze.

#3 Teachers

This is why there are so many teacher/students affairs happening. A study by infidelity-based dating site Ashley Madison found the average unfaithful wife was married for five years or less and most likely to be a teacher, stay-at-home mum or working in the medical industry. According to the website, the day after Mother's Day is the biggest day for married women sign-ups. Of those new registers over 50% are in the academic field.

#4 Kinky Partners

Ashley Madison reports an upswing in "kinky" dating profiles as well as the term BDSM since the 2012 release of the book "Fifty Shades of Grey". One intimacy expert says one way to tell if a man is cheating on you is if he suddenly wants to do more in the bedroom perhaps because his mistress taught him. The same can be said for females apparently. The site saw a 50% rise in women sign ups to their site who were interested in experimenting on the side with some form of bondage and discipline.

#5 Love That Rock-N-Roll

I got the music in me, I got the music in me.. Another affair website, Illicit Encounters, showed that 41 percent of cheaters are rock music fans and prefer that sound in music over other music genres. Perhaps they just take the 'sex, drugs and rock 'n roll' mantra a little too seriously. Rockers bring the sexiness, the danger, the baditude to your cheating lifestyle, according to the site. Interestingly, rap fans were the most loyal, according to the site experts.

#6 Money Matters

It goes without saying that the people with money tend to be more indulgent. Wealthier men have power and riches at their fingertips, so they often feel more entitled to cheat on their significant other. Interestingly, though, powerful and wealthy women are less likely to stray. If you've got the money, someone always has the time.

#7 Poorer Women

You've heard of gold diggers, and those trying to make their lives better by marrying up? It's all true. Studies show that poorer women are more likely to cheat on their spouses. Psychologists say it is from being insecure about themselves and never being able to achieve total happiness. Some evolutionary biologists suggest that it's connected to climbing the geneticand financialladder. Women with no or low income cheat four times more than men without any disposable income.

#8 The French

Luxury sex toy brand LELO carried out a massive survey of 35,000 adults from 30 countries and got very racist results. It seems that 75% of French men are cheaters. Apparently, Australians, while some of the most loyal lovers around, don't last very long in the bedroom, and over a quarter of Swiss and Greek adults have slept with over 20 people. Not only are the French head and shoulders above the rest of the free world for adultery, they also enjoy kinky sex more than any others. Blame it all on Paris. The city of a little extra love.

#9 Tall Men

A survey by extra-marital website Illicit Encounters claimed that men who measure in over 5'10" were twice as likely to cheat as their shorter counterparts. If you happen to be dating a tall glass of water right now then be on the watch for some unusual behavior. The height brings power and greater confidence with the opposite sex, so taller men probably attract more potential partners

#10 Waynes And The Number Nine

We don't make this stuff up. One study revealed that people whose ages ended in ‘9' were more likely to cheat. This is because people who are about to turn over a new decade make more erratic decisions that could potentially change the course of their lives. Someone 39, for example, is 73% more likely to try a new sexual partner than someone who is even one year younger or older than that age.

Siteopia.com polled 7,000 women on the sketchiest guy's name when it comes to love. The top three replies were Wayne, Liam, and Ryan, with Wayne coming in far ahead of the rest. What would make these guys any more likely to be cheaters is hard to imagine, but apparently plenty of Wayne's have been caught cheating on their partners. All we are asking is that you give Wayne a chance.
