In fact, it has been found that while 36.9 per cent of the respondents are willing to forgive their partners without any conditions, 40.1 per cent think the relationship’s future will depend on the reason behind the infidelity. Some 23 per cent of people say they are going to call it quits if such incidents happen.

It was also found in the survey that while previously people looked for flings and casual relationships when they sought extramarital relationships, now it is a big no-no. With people’s perspectives changing, the survey revealed that most people are “committing infidelity” when they are “trying to find a companion rather than flashy flings”.
