The hook of affairs is often the “MORE” factor. Once the cheater has a taste of what can happen, they often want “more”. In their search to satisfy their desires, they plunge deeper into the affair. What could have stopped with a one night stand or moment of passion soon turns into a mission or passion filled drive. The desire for the illusive ‘more’ takes over more of their mind and heart. It is as if they are now consumed with this desire. Like a cancer, it eats away at their free will and mind to the point that they begin loosing control. The sad part is that the promises they thought that ‘more’ would bring are never there the way they imagined. The relationship did not turn out like they thought it would. They left the secure and familiar surroundings of their family for the exotic and exciting ‘more’ only to find that it requires more from them than they ever imagined. The ‘more’ factor always has a larger price tag than the cheater realizes. Its costs are often hidden, or the cheater is blind to them as they chase after what they consider ‘MORE’. They want more love, passion, attention, security, yet find that it only costs them more, demands more time, takes more sanity and portions of their soul along the way. They become something alien to what they ever imagined they could become. Lies flow from them like water, self-control weakens and selfishness takes over, all in the name of “MORE”.
In their mind, they tasted a sample and wanted it all. Along the way, they often loose what is valuable in exchange for the illusive ‘More’.
