    I would guess 3, 7, 8.
    But, for a certainty, back then,
    We loved so many, yet hated so much,
    We hurt others and were hurt ourselves...

    Yet even then, we ran like the wind,
    Whilst our laughter echoed,
    Under cerulean skies...

    I don't think Eights are particularly unfaithful.

    Threes and Eights are probably the most unfaithful.

    A girl I was dating said she was oh so great at sex etc, but she didn't do blowjobs.
    My reply: Oh I'm really romantic etc, I just will never take you out to dinner.

    yeah okay. But I'm not talking about "players" here. I'm talking about regular married people. Any type can cheat of course. But I was thinking if 7s might be more likely to, since they're seeking stimulation and trying to avoid boredom and emptiness. So maybe it's like 7>3>8>9>4>5>6>2>1 or something.

    I dunno. I just made that up.

    Hey, I am acutally suprised that 3 is on top of the list, its not that I am a 3 and I want to perserve the imagine of three, but most three I've known are somewhat faithful, or at least they are into their partners so deeply then apprently lose interest in them so its deep into the relationship then lose immerse interest just as quickly, then find another one. is that infidelity?

    Agreed. But, the sx instinct would play a large part in determining the degree to which these types would be prone to cheating IMO.

    I would put 4 above 9. I'm an sx 4, and while I get attached rather strongly and quickly to someone I like/admire/etc., a lot of times I find myself compartmentalizing and manipulating emotions as a means to preserve whatever conceptions I have of myself and the person. Taken to the extreme, this can cause reality shifts, where I would actually think that I didn't value someone, because my envy for them could be that strong.

    There's this story about how the 4 child wants to vitiate the mother's breast...

    Exactly, good insight. I've never cheated, but I can totally see the potential of being a big cheater in a person that is similar to me.
