Infidelity Quotes

“When love becomes labored we welcome an act of infidelity towards ourselves to free us from fidelity”. Rightly quoted by French classical author François de la Rochefoucauld, cheating and betrayal from our beloved can urge us to take incorrect steps only to realize what a blunder we’ve done at a later stage. But the truth is that most of us have become habitual of cheating on our partners. The kind of environment to which we are exposed to from birth and the lifestyles that we experience give us umpteen reasons to find a new love the moment we are free from our previous relationship. To add on, infidelity is not synonymous to men alone, women are an equal contributor to it. Here is a compiled list of some thoughtful and emotional quotations on infidelity.
