It can be due to many reasons like: 1- She wants to have a replacement guy ready to go, to avoid being seduced back into a relationship with him. 2- She hopes that it will make him hate her and not want to be with her anymore. 3- She’s an untrustworthy woman. 4- She wasn’t really ever committed to the relationship anyway. 5- She wants him to react in an unattractive way, so she has another reason to leave him. And above all of that, you really - as the guy - should always avoid to: 1- Seeking pity from her for how much the cheating hurt you. 2- Getting very angry at her. 3- Insulting her by calling her names. 4- Demanding that she tell you all the details of how it happened. 5- Willingly accepting being cheated on just to spend more time with her.

Because sometimes it's difficult to tell someone you once loved and still care about that you don't feel happy and meaningful. Explaining that is a very difficult thing. It's not fair to cheat but it is also need to be considered from the perspective that how many people accept the breakup when someone tells them their true feelings. People get threatening, they blame, they yell. After so many similar experiences it is natural to feel afraid of confronting. But it also depends on the woman. Sometimes it's none of these reasons but the fact that they are not the best example of moral responsibility.

For the same reason anyone cheats instead of breaking up. Breaking up is about being responsible, about having serious conversations, potentially about arguing, and losing someone they might still care about. On the other hand, cheating makes them feel desired, makes them feel ALIVE again, makes them feel any number of things they may not have been feeling with their partner for a long time. The most often cited reason for women cheating in research is that they "feel emotionally neglected". We do not always do what is 'RIGHT', we usually do what FEELS right, even when it's WRONG.

The same reason men do. They want to avoid conflict. They're in a relationship where needs aren't being met but don't want to actually discuss it because that would involve openly and honestly talking about their issues which is hard for some people. Some people are emotionally repressed and dislike vulnerability. It's hard to have healthy relationships with someone when you keep a wall up. Relationships are built on openness and communication. They take a lot of work. Many don't want to do this work and find it easier to cheat to get what's missing from their relationship. Rather than talk about their issues and try to resolve them.

Both men and women can cheat, but usually, it can be for a number of reasons. This can be because they find more sexual compatability with another person and don't want to hurt their partner's feelings, sometimes they may feel more connected to another person emotionally and in ways different than their connection with their partner. Maybe it could be that in their mind, they have decided that they do not wish to be romantically involved with you as a partner and feel no need to come out and say it. But for future reference, women are not the only group of people who cheat on their partners instead of breaking up.

What if we can't really mindread the situation which will vary depending on the circumstance which is quite unique depending on the context - country - culture - a lot. For, not everyone does it, and the same applies for men equally. - Why do some women cheat instead of breaking up you mean? - Well That's their choice and they will have their reasons. The best I believe is to choose Your way of Life and Make it yours a model and be happy with it. Enjoy :)

Not all women cheat instead of breaking up. And maybe some people think brealing up to be a form of cheating... so its all about perception.

Possibly because they don't want to hurt you initially but they want to be with the other person, or they just don't want to break up with you and they don't think it will be that bad if they're with 2 prople, some of them do break up instead to a avoid hurting their partner later when they find out

There are many reasons a woman may cheat instead of breaking up. Sometimes women cheat because they are bored, sometimes it's because they are lacking something in their relationship or life. Sometimes it could be because they don't want to be in the relationship they are in but it offers some form of security and stability, but they are lacking the excitement and fun that cheating can provide. Also, it could be because they aren't ready to settle down into a monogamous relationship.
