Abstract
Infidelity is a topical issue in both social and legal spheres. This study was a mixed- method design focused on unfaithfulness among married couples. The aims of the study were to assess the common understanding of infidelity as a practice, estimate the extent of marital infidelity among christian men and women and to establish the reasons for it as well as the perceived consequences of adulterous relationships. The study findings revealed that the common understanding of infidelity/unfaithfulness was a married person’s sex relationship with a person outside the principal relationship, infidelity was more prevalent among married men than it was among married women, reasons for infidelity included sex, finance, respect, dignity and luxuries. The effects of unfaithfulness were diseases, stress, violence and divorce. The study also revealed that after being cheated on one would seek for counselling failure which divorce would be the final. Conclusions were that the understanding of the concept of infidelity in this study was as much as it was understood elsewhere to mean sexual intercourse between at least one dyadic partner and another person who does not belong to the primary relationship. The study recommended that future studies on related topics use bigger samples, more research sites and to carry the study with dating couples to find out whether there is a continuity or discontinuity in whatever infidelity patterns that might be extended to younger people.
