HILLSBOROUGH, N.C. — Adam & Eve has shared the results of a new survey asking the question, “Have you ever engaged in sexual activity outside of your relationship?”
Nineteen percent of respondents admitted to having cheated. This is in contrast to a similar survey Adam & Eve conducted in 2012, in which 27% of respondents reported that they had cheated.
In 2022, 63% of respondents claimed to have never cheated, compared with 61% in 2012.
“For many people, the last few years has been a wake-up call to evaluate what works and doesn’t in a relationship,” said Dr. Jenni Skyler, resident sexologist at Adam & Eve. “Some people have found that a traditional relationship is best for them, while others have decided they prefer more independence. Regardless, honesty is the cornerstone to any healthy relationship, and cheating has and will always have, damaging consequences.”
The web-based survey of over 1,000 American adults age 18 and up, conducted by an independent company, was sponsored by Adam & Eve to study sexual preferences and practices.
