It is hard for a woman to understand the male psych without a penis, but I am glad Bella is giving it a go.
You've hit the nail on the head a few times. I think it comes down to meeting differing sexual needs in some cases. This doesn't necessarily mean that your partner, if you discussed with her, won't please you in that way because she probably will - rather, once the sexual allure in the early stages of a relationship fades - a nurturing role starts to take place. It moves from almost strictly sexual beginnings, to a more intimate affair - you actually care about the person you're with. I had a mate, who was with a woman for a number of years - he loved her and cared for her, but consistently sought out other women to fill the primal urges (hard to pound someone with anal sex when you've taken on a nurturing role and she's "your woman"). I'm sure this doesn't affect all relationships, but I remember this instance quite clearly and it makes sense.
Also, boredom simply put. Even trying new escapades can become stale. You can really love the person you're with but be tempted by a change of scenery. Society today is more sexually open. In my folks days - they got married in their early 20's and some of them only had the one partner - nothing to compare to! 50 years most of them are still happily together.
I have a mate who has been with well over 50 women. He says, the more I have the harder it becomes to like one. The pickier you get. He likes aspects about all the women he has been with - but having a buffet of them makes it difficult to have "the same 'ol crackers every night".
I dunno, men and women alike are farkked!
