Is it normal to have urges to cheat ?

Iknow this sounds bad. Im in love but i was never a relationship kind of girl. And sometimes i miss flirting with men and the attention is almost an addiction to me. My boyfriend is not as experienced as me in bed and never really satisfys me and i been having urges to cheat on him is this normal ? I havent cheat on him i have in the past relationships but this one is different and i dont want to ruin it. And comments or suggestions ?

    Communicate with him. Talk about your sex life--tell him what you like.
    If that doesn't solve the problem, you might simply not be ready for a long-term, committed relationship. Btw, specifically, which factor is causing low quality sex? Is he just really shy and self conscious about it? Does he second guess himself? Does he lack energy/enthusiasm or a strong sexual drive? Or, like you said, is it purely because of his lack experience (if that's the case, would more practice fix it)?

      Good answer. And about the flirting...it's very normal to want to feel desireable. If it's just harmless flirting and nothing physical, she could ask him if it crosses the line and if not maybe she could go out with girlfriends once or twice a month and get some attention.

    Just break up with him. Do yourself and other guys a favor and don't even try to be with anyone until you're ready. If you ever plan on being with him again I'd talk it through and tell him what's bothering you, or else it will continue to get worse. Nothing worse than being dumped without a fair warning. I know what it's like to have the urge to cheat. I've done it multiple times and I regret it all. Not worth it. Good luck.

    Maybe you aren't ready for an exclusive relationship.

    If you can't tell your BF how to please you, it's not his fault he can't satisfys(sic) you. That's YOUR failure.
    Best you move on because I don't think he has a very good girl friend.

    Its not the cheating you are addicted to, its whether or not you are going to get caught at it!

    being a girl who is attracted to many men does not make you a whore, merely someone who is in touch with her femininity!

    You have the right equipment and you know that men want to savour it!

    I for one will not mind eating your biscuit....

    With a little less of what I'm perceiving as contempt, I have to agree with thegypsysailor. It is your responsibility to find a way to enjoy your partner. If you can't find a way, you are responsible for continuing to be with him, which places the responsibility still squarely on you. And I think it's important to not overlook the fact that maybe part of what you need in a sexual relationship is the taboo aspect. Maybe you just like cheating, whatever it means to you.

    I'm the same way, I imagine. My wife knows how bad I want to cheat. I hardly ever stop thinking about it. I want the thrill, the adoration, the utter satisfaction of my secret partner. But I happen to know that even if my wife were somehow up to my standards, she could never be enough. And that is all me.

    If you can afford it (insurance sometimes covers it) I strongly recommend talk therapy to help you figure some of these things out. Psychologist, not psychiatrist. You don't need drugs, you need understanding. I think there's hope.

    Not only is it normal to think but to also do! Look at the animal kingdom! We are mammals... or aa I call it... mimosas in masochistic debacles

    No need for the negative comments. I never said i was going to cheat on him to do truly love him. And sex is only a benefit from relationships shouldnt be based on sex. I was just asking opinions. But iknow im ready to be commited to him. Its also a new relationship thats why im asking for help and peoples opinions. I have never been in a commited relationship so i was just wondering if these feelings were normal.

        Hey there, how goes it? Yeah, communication is very important in the bedroom. Show and tell him what you like.
