What makes a man leave his wife/partner for another woman?

Your wife/partner has a pussy, so why look for other pussy?

Intrigue of the unknown Genie. Thrill of the chase.

I know we have faithful husbands here on the board.. but for the sake of conversation, what makes a man leave his wife/partner for another woman aside from the ones we already know?

I'm not sure. They always leave me!
Personally, I've never been in a situation where there was someone else, that I would leave for. Usually when I'm ready to move on, I'm ready for some me time. Certainly not straight into another relationship.
I've been somewhat fortunate in this area. I've been in 3 long term relationships, with 3 beautiful women that loved me for years, until they didn't. Even when single and dating or shorter-term relationships, for the most part I was dating up. Not that I'm not OK, put very attractive women/ladies.

Ok, enough about me, and to the question, Other than the usually, I think it's the same for men and women, as sad as it may be, it's just ran its course.
I know people that have meet the person that makes them happy for the rest of their life, while married to someone else.
Of course, more often than not, they find out the grass was not greener.
Some may say the exception not the rule.

Is a jealous, nagging, and manipulative wife/partner a valid reason to leave her?

I will answer this way, she would be hard to live with.

That don't sound like love to me,
Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. 5 It does not dishonor others, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. 6 Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. 7 It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres.

Did you fight for them to stay, RR? or did you respect their decision to move on w/o you in their life?

Sometimes a little openness and letting them know how much they mean to you will change everything, and if they still choose to leave...it means, it's game over. You did your part and time for self-love.

Men leave women because they get tired of them bitching at them. Once you are not good looking anymore it is not worth bothering with. It seems more women leave men these days than the other way around. Women think there is always something better out there and then find out otherwise.

Genie if I still drank, and you and I got to the Bar at opening time, I could bore you talking about this, tell closing time.
Short answers. My high school sweetheart was beautiful, she went to a different school than myself, (twice the size of my school) about 20 miles away. We dated from 16 to almost my 20th birthday. She broke my young heart, I thought we were getting married and growing old together, but she had other plans. Yes, I would have Foght the entire USA armed forces for her. I thought for almost 4 years life would always be this great, until it wasn't. She knew how I felt about her, and I made sure she did, but we were just kids.

I was with my daughter's mother for about 16 years. She was a looker too, and let the world know, she knew she was. We were a couple that really had to work at it. We both could have worked harder at our relationship; we had a lot of ups and downs. We were very social, and I worked an extreme number of hours, and I Put her thru 5 years of college. But once again broken heart. This was in my 20's and 30's. When we spilt up she was done.

My last relationship, she was a wonderful person, and my daughter loved her almost, as much, as her on mother. I was at a point in my life that not being in a relationship sounded good. It still was not easy when she left.

How you manage to move on from this heartbreak, I don't know...but it only tells me one thing about you.. that you are a very strong person!

I'm sure it sounds worse than it was. Everybody or most, probably have that first taste of getting their heart broke when they are young, weather they will admitt it or not! Someone told me once, the first cut is the deepest!
