    Monogamy is socially imposed, not a biological prerogative. Therefore yes, cheating is common because social norms can only do so much to override basic human nature.

    The natural human relation is a long term partnership without sexual exclusivity, which is common in other primates as well. This is why people cheat but still want to stay with their partners.

    That was heavily downvoted but that I personally agreed. We live in a society were monogamous exclusive relationships are the norm, so is difficult to think it could not be.
