One study suggests so, it also says that somehow we always have a “Plan B” in case the relationship isn’t working out at the time.
American scientists and researchers maintain that women are “genetically programmed to have love affairs” What «plan B» in case the relationship with your partner fails.
From a genetic point of view, women are predisposed to have affairs as «plan B» in the event that the sentimental relationship with your partner fails at a certain point, which would be a consequence of the prevailing trend towards monogamy in the history of humanity, according to a group of researchers and scientists from the University of Texas (USA), reports ‘The Sunday Times’.
According to the hypothesis suggested by the team of researchers, humans have evolved socially to test and analyze their romantic relationships in search of the best long-term option. “Lifelong monogamy is not characteristic of the primary mating patterns of humans”explains the doctor David Bushauthor of the investigation.
In the past, diseases, poor diet and poor sanitation meant that life expectancy did not exceed 30 years, so finding and securing an appropriate protective partner was a primary objective, say the study’s authors.
Breaking off the relationship with one partner and copulating with another could more accurately characterize the common, perhaps primary, mating strategy of humans.Buss says. “Amour affairs serve as a method to ensure a sentimental partner who can become a safe option in the future, since the current partner can also cheat on the woman, abandon her, die or deteriorate the value of the relationship”emphasizes the author.
