Ever been cheated on? Hell ya. Does it suck? So much.

But stop blaming yourself, you could have done nothing to stop it. Science says, that it is inevitable. A person’s genetics, hormonal and social factors play a pivotal role in determining if that person is likely to cheat or not. So maybe, once a cheater always a cheater has some scientific basis after all.

According to the study, if your partner possesses the long allele of the dopamine gene receptor, they are probably more likely to cheat.
