In recent times, there have been so many cheating scandals that have come to light ranging from Jeff Bezoz to Jay Z to Ashton Kutcher. 

According to the recent General Social Survey (GSS), 20% of men and 13% of women reported that they've had sex with someone other than their spouse while married.
