Extramarital affair statistics show variations among different studies and regions. According to this survey, approximately 20-40% of married individuals in the United States have been involved in adultery at some point in their lives.
Adultery occurrences can be influenced by various factors, including age, gender, and cultural norms. However, recent research indicates that this might well be the case.
Additionally, the study reveals that bankers and brokers are among the top groups engaging in extramarital affairs.

However, a whopping 85% of these sneaky cheaters do not recommend mixing business with pleasure.

However, instead of feeling happy with how it spices up the daily grind, nearly 70% of the women surveyed admitted feeling the icy chill of fear creeping down their spines, even if they faced repercussions in the office.
Imagine having to work alongside your fling-gone-wrong lover after things have gone south - not an ideal situation, right?
