"Hi my name is Reka Morvay. I'm a psychologist and I'm going to talk to you today about how to keep your man faithful. If you have a happy and fulfilled relationship and if you have very clear boundaries on what kind of behaviors you will accept then I think this is the best and easiest way to keep your man faithful. The first one is a really obvious step. If you have a man who is happy in a relationship then they are much much less likely to go and look for fulfillment outside the needs of the relationship. These may not just necessarily be sexual needs. Maybe they're needs for companionship. Maybe they are needs for new time, fun time spent together with somebody. So sex is a big thing but it is not the only feature in the relationship that might draw a man outside the relationship. So the first thing you need to make sure is that both of you are happy in the relationship and the reason it is important for you to be happy and not just for your man to be happy is because everybody likes for their partner to be happy and everybody likes to feel that they are making their partner happy so in order to keep your man faithful it is important to keep a happy and healthy relationship and the second thing that is important is to have very clearly drawn out rules for what will happen if your man is unfaithful to you. If he knows without a doubt that you will leave him if he has another relationship outside this one then I think that's a very clear detriment. Whereas if you have never discussed it, you don't exactly know, you only implied or maybe you thought it was understood what your expectations are in terms of cheating and fidelity then maybe this is not a clear situation for him or maybe he will even just use it and say well you never said that it's not o'kay for me to flirt with someone or it's not o'kay for me to kiss somebody else or maybe I was just drunk at a party and it just happened. So you need to be really really very clear about what is acceptable and what is not and what the consequences will be and then you will need to make sure that you follow through on those consequences."
