What does outside validation look like?

Expanding briefly on Hartwell’s mention of looking for attention from others outside of the relationship, we’ll take a quick look at infidelity. Research has found that when women cheat they tend to look for some sort of emotional connection, whereas men are more likely to look for something purely physical. One survey found that, of people having affairs, 57 percent of women said they felt some level of love for their adulterous partner, but only 27 percent of men expressed such emotions for their extramarital partner. Emotional connection is so important to women, and the lack thereof so powerful, it can drive them to cheat.
