Picture this: You're lonely and unsatisfied with your relationship, but you don't want to leave it. The right thing to do would be to end the relationship you're unhappy with, or talk to your partner and try to work out your problems. However, if your will power isn't that strong, and you're presented with an opportunity, you might cheat.
Other people might do it for different reasons, though. I don't know.

The word "time" split its husk; poured its riches over him; and from his lips fell like shells, like shavings from a plane, without his making them, hard, white, imperishable words, and flew to attach themselves to their places in an ode to Time; an immortal ode to Time.
—Virginia Woolf, Mrs Dalloway
