For many of us, being cheated on by the person we love is absolutely the worst thing imaginable.
Sorry to put the boot in, but it’s inevitable that it will happen to some of us eventually.
But how do we attempt to work out who among us should be the most worried?

Well… what if I told you your horoscope determines how likely you are to cheat?
I guess you could say it’s written in the stars.
Sex and relationships expert, Jessica Leoni from extramarital dating site IllicitEncounters.com, took data from a recent study and shared her wisdom with us.

The study also spoke to several individuals who have cheated, and gave their own insight.
Lucy, from Bath, said: “I started having an affair last summer after reaching breaking point with my husband. He’s a Pisces who seems to swim away from any sort of conflict, which means we’ve never managed to get around our marriage issues.
“I’m a Capricorn, and I've always prided myself on my loyalty and reliability. But guess what? Even us goats have our moments when we decide enough is enough. Now, I’m seeing a fellow Capricorn and I can finally say that I’ve found someone who really understands me.”
Eeek.
The study looked at data from 15,000 cheaters who joined IllicitEncounters within the past twelve months – terrifyingly, findings suggest it may be possible to predict the likelihood of infidelity within a relationship.

Jessica commented: “Astrology, with its mystique and allure, has long captured our imagination, offering insights into our personalities, behaviours, and even our relationships.”
So, without further adieu, here’s the likelihood of you getting cheated on by each star sign.

He said: “As an Aries, I've always been drawn to adventure and excitement.
“I'm a devoted partner on the surface, but let's just say I've got a bit of a wandering eye. It's not that I don't love my wife, but sometimes the thrill of the chase is too hard to resist.
“Call it a weakness or blame it on the stars, but life's too short to stick to one path.”
Giving a serious side eye to all Aries’ right now.

Jessica explained: “Impulsive Aries are the daredevils of the zodiac. With their boundless energy and penchant for excitement, they're always chasing after the next thrill, making them more likely to be led straight into the arms of temptation.
“Loyal and dependable, Taurus is the poster child for commitment. They're not about to let a little itch sway them from their path of devotion. So, if you've got yourself a Taurus partner, hold onto them tight – they're as faithful as they come!"
It might be worth having a no-Aries policy next time you join a dating app - just saying.
