This is possibly the hardest one to understand, but when men are offered sex, they are likely to take up the offer. Research suggests that this is because they are less used to be propositioned and so are more likely to feel flattered and wanted.
It Boosts His Ego ...
Men in long term relationships tend to feel less attractive to the opposite sex, so when a woman pays attention, he will allow her to stroke his ego some more. The thrill of the chase leads to a massive ego boost when he finally sleeps with her.

Men often gauge the likelihood of repercussions from their past experiences. If a man has cheated before and faces minimal consequences, or if the relationship quickly returns to normal, he may interpret this as a green light to repeat the offense. It's essential to understand that this isn't reflective of every situation, but it is a pattern that can occur. Healthy communication and setting firm boundaries after such a betrayal is crucial if you decide to continue the relationship. Otherwise, he may feel emboldened to take your forgiveness as permission to stray again.
