I’m in the Office – Number 1 Lie Cheating Men use to have an Affair!

* 1 in 3 men use ‘I’m in the office’ as an excuse to have an affair

* 89% of hybrid workers choose Mondays or Fridays to cheat instead of work

* Less than a quarter of adulterers feel guilty for cheating, however nearly all of them agree they’d feel guilty if they were caught red-handed

* Study conducted by IllicitEncounters.com, the UK’s leading dating site for married people

He’s not working from home, he’s having an affair!

There’s a lot of stigma that people who WFH don’t actually get any work done. IllicitEncounters.com can shed some light on this being partly true, for affair seekers anyway!

The cheating website, that’s solely for married people seeking affairs, conducted a poll with 2000 male members to reveal the most popular excuses men use to cheat.  

The survey found that most men lie that they’re going to work when actually they’re having an affair. A whopping 37% use ‘I’m in the office’ as an excuse to be unfaithful.

Out of those, 89% said they typically use this excuse on a Monday or a Friday – opting to have an affair on one of those days instead of actually going into the office. The word TW*T comes to mind, the term adopted for hybrid workers that don’t come into work either side of the weekend, only on Tuesdays, Wednesdays and Thursdays. Looks like being a TW*T is the perfect excuse to cheat on your wife.

The second most popular excuse used by affair-seekers is I’m at the ‘gym’ (29%), or at the ‘pub with a friend’ (17%). 

Only 5% of cheats say they are ‘working late’ to cover up their affair.

4% say they are ‘shopping’, instead of cheating, and 2% of adulterers use golf as an excuse – that’s one way to enjoy the 19th hole.

Less than a quarter of those surveyed feel guilty about their indiscretions (23%), however, nearly all of them 97% said they would feel guilty if their partner suspected them or found out about the affair. 

We also asked whether call-forwarding was something these men do to hide their tracks and 65% admit they use call-forwarding to their mobiles just in case they get an impromptu phone call from their wives whilst ‘in the office. 

Case Study 

Harry, 34, London

‘Since March our company has adopted hybrid working. It’s really up to us when we want to come in as long as we don’t take the mickey. On weekends the kids need constant attention and my wife always seems to find bits and bobs need fixing around the house, I can never catch a break. I’ve been having an affair with someone local for about 3 months. While her husband is at work and the kids are in school I’ll go round to hers. There really isn’t any other time we can afford without raising suspicion. I don’t feel guilty, what my wife doesn’t know isn’t going to upset her.’’

Jessica Leoni, sex and relationships expert at IllicitEncounters.com said ‘A solid alibi for infidelity is important to these men, you can’t get any more solid than going to work. We all switch off from our lives when we’re at work and have been indoctrinated to never contact a spouse whose out making bread unless it is an absolute emergency. Wives aren’t bothering husbands who are making money. How are they to know they’re not needed in the office on any particular day?

The hybrid worker is an opportunistic adulterer. As a direct effect of the coronavirus pandemic, this unique excuse allows men to indulge in affairs while lying about where they are on the regular.

Going to the gym is the second most popular lie, but does require a bit of planning, not only do you need your sweaty gym kit, you also want to make sure you’re at least a little bit in shape, otherwise all these visits to the gym seem iffy.

Formerly ‘working late’ was a tried and tested excuse, but it hardly works these days. If your spouse is always working late, you will become suspicious. If your spouse, however, has simply gone to work and comes home on time every single day, what reason would you have to worry?

Lying has always been a necessity in adultery. If you’re going to cheat, don’t get caught!”

How faithful is your star sign?

* Libras’ are the top love rats of 2020
* Scorpio’s are the most faithful star sign
* 13% of adulterers are cheating on a Sagittarius 
* Data released by the UK’s top extra-marital dating site IllicitEncounters.com

Are we fated to cheat? IllicitEncounters.com, the UK’s top extramarital dating site, analysed data of 120,000 of it’s married members and found that certain astrological signs are more likely to stray than others. 

Disloyal Libra’s are the most likely to have an affair, winning top cheating star sign of 2020, with a whopping 16% of adulterers belonging to this astrological sign.

Two-faced Geminis come in at a close second with 14%, followed by cheating Capricorns third with 12%.

Looking for commitment? Look no further than the steadfast Scorpio, the most faithful star sign of the zodiac with only 3% of Scorpios cheating – they’re a safe bet for monogamy. 

Other star signs less likely to cheat are Aquarius 4% and Sagittarius 4%

Although the archer belongs to one of the most faithful, the same can’t be said for their partners. A further 1200 members were asked what star sign their spouse belonged to, and found that a mammoth 13% of adulterers are married to a Sagittarius. 

Michaela a Libra using the site said “I first cheated on my husband, with a work colleague, at a Christmas party five years ago. It was such a rush, having this dirty little secret.

Nowadays I only cheat with married men – that way you both stand to lose a lot, and are less likely to get caught. I’m never going to leave my husband, but I just can’t help that I am much more adventurous and need more sex then he does.”

Cecilia a Gemini using the site said “I have always felt that monogamous relationships are a thing of the past. Me and my husband both date other people, but we are each other’s primary relationship. We absolutely adore each other, and would never leave our marriage – but we both feel that variety is important in life.”

Sex and relationships expert at IllicitEncounters.com, Jessica Leoni said “Infidelity really is written in the stars. 

Libra is the most likely to cheat, not surprising at all. Libras are social butterflies, who dislike being alone. If a Libra is married to someone who isnt always available – it’s only natural they’d be seeking validation and company elsewhere. Gregarious Geminis are similar in that respect, another air sign, Geminis are renowned for having two often contradicting personalities – and although they love companionship, they’re fearful of commitment. 

Don’t want your partner to cheat on you? Marry a Scorpio, the most loyal star sign.

How about the poor Sagittarius’, doing their best to stay faithful, and yet everyone is cheating on them!”

He’s not Exercising, He’s having an Affair!

* Lockdown ease sends lustful loverats to cheat
* Exercise top affair alibi for men and women, with running in top place
* Second place excuse to cheat for women is sunbathing as the UK enters a heatwave
* Survey conducted by IllicitEncounters.com the UK’s largest extramarital dating site

IllicitEncounters.com surveyed 240 of its members who have met up with their mistress or histress in the last week.

With lockdown restrictions having been marginally eased in the UK, the majority of men and women who are having affairs during lockdown are using exercise as an excuse to meet up.

A whopping 78% of men and 54% of women have said they are out exercising in the last week when actually they’ve been cheating.

Men are most likely to say they are going for a run (24%), followed by playing tennis (16%).

Top cheating excuse for women is going for a walk (20%).

The second highest rated excuse for women is sunbathing (15%) – coinciding with the recent heatwave in the UK. With forecasts predicted to go up to a scorching 26C in some parts of London today, this excuse is likely to continue to rise as the weather gets hotter.

Some of the excuses were gender specific.

Only men cite playing tennis (16%), going for a drive (11%), playing golf (9%), needing to cool off after an argument (3%) and dropping by the office (2%) as an excuse to cheat in the last week.

Whereas only women cite sunbathing (15%), needing a break from the kids (12%), yoga (7%), grocery shopping (6%), and visiting a garden centre (4%) as an excuse.

Going for a run comes in as the top excuse with 19% for both genders combined.

Dave, a member using IllicitEncounters.com said “It isn’t that unusual for me to be doing outdoor sports, I’ve always been a keen runner and a avid cyclist, leaving the house for a few hours a day sporting lycra is very ordinary, so exercise for me is the perfect excuse to cheat.”

Monika, a member using IllicitEncounters.com said “Oh come on, we’re all adults here. Seeing your lover during lockdown is no different to meeting up with a friend and socially distancing. I take my border collie for a walk and meet my other man in the park, so sue me. The weather has been so nice recently, I’ve just been telling my hubby I’m out sunbathing, the tan lines make it easy to prove.”

IllicitEncounters.com sex and relationships expert Jessica Leoni said “If people choose to meet their lovers during lockdown it is essential they adhere to social distancing rules. Let’s keep the exercise alive, and leave the sexercise till life returns to normal.

People who are in unhappy marriages often report feeling lonely. Lockdown has made these people feel even more isolated and alone. It’s expected that they would try and see each other, to fill that emotional void, and satisfy a basic social need of love and belonging.

Many people who are cheating are living a discreet double life, so in order to see their lover they need to come up with a justifiable reason. I’m not surprised exercise is the primary excuse to cheat for both genders, it’s one of the main reasons we are allowed to venture out during lockdown.”

Sexiest Halloween Costumes 2019

• Harley Quinn voted hottest Halloween outfit for women
• Joker voted sexiest Halloween outfit for men
• Witches and Scarecrows make least sexy costumes
• Survey conducted by IllicitEncounters.com the UK’s largest extra-marital dating site

IllicitEncounters.com, the UK’s leading dating website for married people, surveyed 1000 of its male and female members in search for the sexiest Halloween costumes of 2019 and the results are in.

If there was a prize going for best Halloween costume it seems the villainous couple Joker (20%) and Harley Quinn (17%) top the charts.

The study also reveals the devil (14%) is set to get men horny this Halloween.

Dracula came in second place for sexiest male costume with 13% of the vote.

Least spellbinding ensemble for women goes to the witch (1%) and the pumpkin (2%).

For men the scarecrow (1%) and Jigsaw (2%) outfits are the least sexy.

Zara a female member on IllicitEncounters.com said “Halloween is all about sex appeal. Witches and cats are super lazy and unoriginal. Personally, I love pulling out all the stops, I’m talking apocalyptic, death-defying, seductive, zombie warrior princess! Let’s get a little bloody and gory in 8-inch heels and stockings, who doesn’t love playing dress up? It’s just a bit of adult fun.”

Spokesperson for IllicitEncounters.com Jessica Leoni comments “The Joker with Harley Quinn by his side is a given this Halloween. The recent Joker movie has broken box office records as highest grossing R-rated movie ever – and for good reason. The outfits can also be easily replicated with a bit of home DIY so it’s super easy to get involved.

Dracula coming in second place is unsurprising, a staple on Halloween. There’s something supernaturally appealing about vampires, the cape with the fangs, and promise of immortality. Dracula is just inherently sexy.

I was expecting the devil to come in high for women, the outfit is provocative.I’m visualising red corset, miniskirt and fishnets with shiny red stilettos –horns on the head and a devilish fork – why, hello princess of darkness.

Nobody wants to see men dressed as scarecrows on Halloween, this isn’t Wizard of Oz. And I think I’m with the men when it comes to witches, it’s just such an uninteresting costume”

Polish are top European love cheats

•         More than a quarter of European adulterers in the UK are Polish
•         19% of the Irish population in the UK and 14% of Romanians are cheating
•         Greeks are the most faithful European nationals in the UK
•         Data released by IllicitEncounters.com, the UK’s leading dating site for married people

Could adultery have a nationality? Statistics released by Illicit Encounters gives insight into 2500 of its non-British EU members, revealing the nationalities most likely to be having an affair in the UK.

More than a quarter of adulterers in Britain are of Polish descent (26%)

According to the Office of National Statistics Polish is the most common non-British nationality in the UK since 2007, making up 15% of the total non-British residents* indicative as to why there may be more Polish cheating compared to other non-British nationals.

Second non-British EU national cheating in the UK is Irish with 19% and Romanians come in third place at 14%

The results found that Greeks represent the most faithful non-British EU nationals with only 1% currently having an affair in the UK, followed by Estonians (2%) and Danish (2%)

Lukasz a male member from Poland using the site said “Yes, I am Polish. Yes, I am having an affair. What is the big deal? In my culture we marry young, we have family – divorce is not an option. Most men in long-term relationships, no matter the nationality – are cheating or being cheated on. That is just the state of affairs.”

Spokesperson for IllicitEncounters.com Jessica Leoni said “There is a lot more Polish in the UK than any other nationality, and why should they be missing out on all the fun? Poland has strong traditional values, especially when it comes to family – and we do find a lot of people cheat as an alternative to divorce, ensuring that families remain together. Europeans in general have much more liberal views when it comes to sex and relationships and the Polish are no different.

Why aren’t the Greek cheating? Perhaps they’re more willing to put up with unhappy marriages. Or maybe they’re simply following the advice of Socrates who is credited with saying “by all means, marry. If you get a good wife, you will be happy. If you get a bad one, you will be a philosopher.’”

Women who love yoga cheat on their husbands

 

–  More than half of female cheats go to yoga, and it’s not to lose weight
–  Running scores second place for top fitness hobby
–  Women confess that yoga has improved their sex lives
–  Research conducted by married-dating website IllicitEncounters.com, shows that cyclists and
swimmers are the least likely to cheat

Leading dating site for married people IllicitEncounters.com surveyed 2000 of its female members
asking if they took up a sport or hobby for a minimum of 2 hours per week since embarking on an
affair. 1168 polled said yes, and over half of those chose to take up yoga.

78% of women who go to yoga also admit that the hobby has improved their sex life.

Running came second place with 20% and tennis with a respectable 14%.

The findings also indicated that women were far less likely to take up cycling (2%) or swimming (3%).

The research by IllicitEncounters.com found that the most popular reason for taking up a new sport
or hobby was to try something new (26%) and to build confidence (21%).
Stress relief came in at only 6% and getting fit or losing weight came second to last reason with only
8% of the vote.

Saskia a female member on IllicitEncounters.com “I needed more excuses to get out of the house
and spend less time with my husband. One day a work colleague suggested we try yoga, I wasn’t
expecting to enjoy it, least of all become a full-blown yogi. Yoga has changed my life – it promotes
mindfulness, reduces stress, helps strengthen your core and develops your mental and spiritual
growth.

Yoga makes you feel better about yourself. I have a lover; he’s interested in meditation. Sometimes
we go to the park and teach each other breathing techniques and yoga postures. Yoga will make you
stronger and more flexible than you can imagine, and the sex; let’s just say, there’s a whole new
meaning to downward facing dog”

Monica another female member said “I must admit I didn’t realise my affair coincided with me
starting yoga until now. My affair has been life changing, but I was still craving more. I’ve found that
I needed an entire lifestyle overhaul.

I’ve not only just taken up yoga, I’ve also become vegan, and I’ve even started painting again – which
is something I used to really enjoy. My life was so unbalanced. I was giving all of myself to my
husband and family, so much so that I completely lost who I am. It’s a little bit like the change you
seek when you go through a breakup – I don’t know who I am anymore! Then you go through this
metamorphosis and blossom into a whole new person.”

lllicitEncounters.com sex and relationship expert Jessica Leoni said: “An affair gives you that honey-
moon buzz that begins to fade from a long-term marriage. That buzz is the catalyst to self-
improvement; wanting to try new things, build confidence and make new friends. Dating someone
new brings out our adventurous side.

Women are taking up yoga to continue to boost their self-esteem after rebuilding their confidence
through an affair. I’m not at all shocked that swimming and cycling is bottom of the list, these sports
are lonely and not sexy – you would engage in these sports to lose weight only. Whereas yoga and
sex go hand in hand, add a partner into the mix and what do we have? The Kamasutra. Namaste.”

Running 20%

·         The results come from a survey of 800 married people on IllicitEncounters.com, the UK’s leading website for married people
Spouses can rest assured that if their partner says they’re working late, they probably are.

Out of 800 members surveyed by IllicitEncounters.com only 42% of adulterers have done the dirty with a work colleague compared to 2017, when more than three quarters of adulterers engaged in at least one office fling.

The results revealed that media ranked top workstation for cheating with 26% of affairs happening in this sector, followed shockingly by 19% of love rats working in education.

Out of the 58% that said they’ve never had an office fling; they were asked what their top reasons were.

Top Reasons not to have an Affair at Work:

– Risking my job 23%
– I’m afraid of getting caught out 20%
– I’m afraid of getting a bad reputation 17%
– I’ve not had the opportunity 13%
– Repercussions if it ends badly 10%
– I don’t fancy anyone at work 8%
– I work remotely 7%
– Other 2%

Jude a female member on IllicitEncounters.com said ‘I’ve had an affair with my supervisor at work in a previous job, which turned out catastrophic when it ended. If you’re thinking of having one, I really advise to think twice. It’s awkward working under someone after being intimate with them. Think it’s a secret? You’re wrong. The entire office will get wind of it, especially in my case where I referred to my lover as my work-husband way before we were romantically involved. In the end I had to resign and find a new job. I don’t recommend mixing business with pleasure.’

George a male lawyer on the site said ‘I might have considered pursuing a co-worker in the past, but since being promoted at work I feel like it could be interpreted as an abuse of power. An innocent flirt could be misconstrued and raise alarm bells these days, especially since the #metoo movement – you must be careful to not give off the wrong idea. Office hook-ups are simply not professional, especially in high pressure corporate jobs like law.’

Spokesperson for IllicitEncounters.com Jessica Leoni said ‘Of course less of us are participating in an inter-office rendezvous. Not only is it completely scandalous if it gets out, there are so many other factors to consider if things go sour. Is it worth risking your career over a snog with Martin from Accounting? I think not.  With potential dismissals resulting from affairs at work, you could also be putting your job at jeopardy.

These days our work mates don’t tend to transcend so much into our personal lives either. With the exception of certain jobs like media and teaching – we’re more likely to communicate with a co-worker by email then we are face to face. We simply socialise more after we clock off.’

A third of people have cheated on a partner at Christmas – and the works party is where an affair is most likely to start, according to a new survey

* Two-thirds said they were unfaithful because they had drunk alcohol and things had gone too far;
* Christmas is the peak period of the year for cheating – ahead of the summer holidays and New Year;
* Less than third of cheats (32%) said they had regretted their fling – suggesting they were likely to do it again;
* Results are from a new survey of 1,000 people by IllicitEncounters.com, the UK’s leading dating site for married people

A third of people have cheated on a partner at Christmas, according to a new survey.

It is the most popular time of the year for a new affair to start ahead of the summer holidays and the New Year.

The office Christmas party is the most likely place for a fling to happen with more than half of respondents (57%) who had been unfaithful saying it was with a work colleague.

Two-thirds of cheats (68%) said they were unfaithful because they had drunk alcohol and things had gone too far as a result.

In just over half of cases (54%), the affair did not extend beyond the works party but 46% carried on seeing their colleague after the festive season.

The results are from a new survey of 1,000 people by IllicitEncounters.com, the UK’s leading dating site for married people.


Slightly more women (35%) than men (31%) have betrayed a partner at Christmas time.

The survey found that 85% of people felt more passionate in the run-up to Christmas because they were excited by the holidays and they were partying more with friends and colleagues.

Most affairs happened in the three week period between December 3rd and Christmas Eve – the key period for works parties before the holidays start and people stay at home with their families.

Three-quarters of people (74%) who cheated with a work colleague admitted flirting with them in the run-up to the party.

Seven out of ten cheats (71%) concealed the affair from their colleagues but 29% made no secret of the fact that they had been unfaithful – mainly because they were drunk.

Less than a third of cheats (32%) said they had regretted their fling – suggesting they were likely to do it again.

Only one in ten Christmas flings (11%) are discovered by the betrayed partner – so nearly all cheats get away with their indiscretion.

IllicitEncounters.com spokesman Christian Grant said: “Beware of the Christmas party season because it is a hotbed for affairs.”

“Sexual tensions which have been bubbling up over the course of the working year finally explode due to drink and the opportunity to grab a kiss under the mistletoe.”

“The good news for cheats is that they are very unlikely to get caught out if they start an affair at this time of year, though they are advised not to flaunt their new love in front of their colleagues.”

More than 1 million people have registered with IllicitEncounters.com since it started – and thousands of people begin new affairs each week. The peak time for new registrations is the first two weeks of January when disgruntled spouses return to work after the holidays realising their relationship is unfulfilling and seek someone new.

Poll Revealed! Most Popular Places to go to Meet a Cheat

  • Survey of 1000 members of IllicitEncounters.com has revealed:
  • Nearly 1 in 3 users polled have gone to the gym to find a partner to cheat with.
  • 26% have found an extramarital relationship through work social events.
  • Of members who responded, 17% have made connections through social media platforms.
  • More cheaters meet in hobby clubs than bars and pubs

Could a newfound interest in fitness be a sign that your significant other is going to cheat on you? A recent survey of 1000 members of IllicitEncounters.com, the U.K’s leading dating website for married people, has revealed the top places where cheaters go to find potential partners to have an affair with.

When asked how they go about meeting people to cheat with, shockingly almost a third of respondents chose the gym as their preferred place to seek an extramarital companion. This makes the gym the most popular place other than IllicitEncounters.com to meet an extramarital companion. The poll also asked how long the affair would typically last, those who prefer to find their fling in the gym also had shorter relationships.

The other place that polled highly is work social events such as leaving drinks, office parties, and other informal gatherings with 26% looking to get lucky with a colleague. Affairs that got their start at the office party also had a greater longevity.

Social media platforms like Facebook made up 17% of the polling result. With all the technology at our fingertips connecting and reconnecting is easier than ever, it is perfect for touching base with an old flame. Pubs, bars, and hobby clubs also made the list, the latter catering for more niche sections of the population. One user indicated under ‘Other’ that she would meet married men through her job as an animal psychic.

Top places to meet a cheat

  1. The gym (30%)
  2. Work social events (26%)
  3. Social Media (17%)
  4. Hobby Clubs (12%)
  5. Other (9%)
  6. Pubs/Bars (6%)

Hannah, 41, from Portsmouth said, “I met the first man I ever had an affair with at the gym. Having a gym membership also makes it really easy to make time for my lover, it’s the perfect excuse to steal an afternoon for an intense ‘workout session’.”

Christian Grant, spokesperson for IllicitEncounters.com explained:

“Gyms today have become very versatile social spaces, the high end gyms are all kitted with cafes where you can grab a fresh brewed coffee, a glass or two of wine, and even a healthy bite to eat. It’s also increasingly common for gyms to have more than just weights and treadmills at their disposal. Now you can unwind in a steam room, sit in a sauna, or enjoy a relaxing soak in a hot tub.”

“With the continued momentum of the health conscious movement, more people than ever are joining up to gyms. If you want to forgo the discretion guaranteed by using IllicitEncounters.com, a gym membership is the way to go, unless your pet needs a psychic in which case I may know someone”
