How many people are stuck in rocky relationships or loveless marriages without ever cheating?

Well cheating is one way of showing your zero regards towards your partner. You don't love them in the way they would've deserved.

However, I'm wondering how many people don't cheat but are still stuck on unstable relationships or loveless marriages? Only staying for the kids' sake mainly even though they never cheated? That means not cheating doesn't always mean loving your partner.

I have heard stories and witnessed it too. There are 9 marriages that happen in our extended family in my parents generation and I would say that 2 of the marriages are very unhappy, and one is a loving relationship but there is a serious disability in one of the partners, my uncle who died years or months ago. HIs death was not publicized by his loyal wife and I found out by proxy later. I also know marriages that appear to be amazing, but there is pressure on all partners in the relationship. If one gains weight or loses their high pay cheque, there is a risk of divorce, because they are in it for personal gain.

I’m sure it’s very very very very very rare, people just haven’t been caught.

Loveless? Love is an act of service and commitment not an emotion.
Are you married to your feelings or are you married to your spouse?

If you think your married to your feelings you really aren't married at all and never were.

I'm sure it's quite common there's so many unhappy relationships and I'm sure there's some where people just don't want to cheat for a variety of reasons.

Mainly it's because they're afraid of getting caught and causing drama towards the whole family.
