Do you suspect your spouse or partner of cheating? Well, there is now a definitive fact to discover if your suspicion is true.

According to a new study done in the American Sociological Review, spouses or partners who are dependent financially on the other are more likely to cheat. The study adds that men are also more likely to cheat than women.

In an alternate report by The Guardian, it was found that "men and women who are economically dependent on their partner are more likely to cheat, with men three times more inclined to do so. For women, those who are totally economically dependent have a 5.2% probability of cheating, compared to 3.4% for those who brought home equal income and just 1.5% for total breadwinners."
