This suggests that the quality and frequency of sex or emotional closeness alone do not necessarily deter infidelity.
minus-squarecatloaf@lemm.eelinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up3·4 months agoIt’s not. The article says they surveyed intimacy with the question "How close are you to your partner?” I’m sure the actual study says more. Usually the questions about sex are directly about sex, unless the surveyor is very uptight.
