True love

True love

Date: 2015-02-06

True love does exist, according to majority of unfaithful people

  • Nearly 80% of marriage cheaters believe in true love
  • 59% say true love must involve a physical element

Valentine's Day is set to be a busy one with recent news from Victoria Milan - a website for married and attached people looking to cheat. The site has revealed that marital cheaters are hopeless romantics, with the majority of members surveyed firmly believing in true love (77%).

Nearly 60% of cheaters, however, say true love must contain an erotic element and 36% of these cheaters declared that sexual attraction has an expiration date. In an interesting twist, nearly 50% claim the sensual part of their loving relationship will never end. Founder and CEO of Victoria Milan, Sigurd Vedal said the results begged the question - can a relationship stand the test of time without a physical and erotic element?

"The majority of our members say no - unless the couple is open to finding the sexual element outside of their relationship. Others say the union can continue, however not in an 'ideal' or healthy' way. Our members tell us that having an affair makes their primary relationship happier and more likely to last," Mr Vedal said.

Members said the physical part of the relationship is most likely to end in the first two years (13.5%), after 3-10 years (22%), between 10-20 years (14.8%). The majority is hopeful, with nearly 50% saying their erotic love they share with their partner will never die out.
