The allure of a woman is exceedingly strong. Perhaps the strongest aphrodisiac known to man is the scent of a woman. Ask any man and at least nine out of ten times he will tell you that a woman can have what she wants, all she has to do is know how to ask for it. Women, indeed, have the power; they just don't know it, or won't admit to it.

So powerful is the draw of a woman that it can make a man do things he would never have thought of doing. The magnetism of a woman can make men do something they will regret forever. What's more, it can make a man do those things even though he knows he should not and he knows he will pay later.

Men are notoriously weak and defenseless when it comes to women. The right temptation, wielded in the hands of the right woman has and can continue to bring the strongest of men to his knees. Brief examples would include;

Husbands don't necessarily set out one day with the thought of cheating on their mind. They encounter opportunities to cheat throughout their daily activities. A woman who wants something becomes a most feared and respected predator. Few are the men who can successfully resist the charms of a beautiful woman.

The pursued man will cheat, he will discover what he has done, he will lament at his own personal weakness and the gravity of his mistake and he will try to pay the price. He still wants his wife; he wants her badly and needs her. He knows he has insulted her and degraded her in her eyes and her family's eyes. He has nothing to offer at this point. He has no alternative left but to beg and plead.

This is the beginning of the reason a woman will go back with a cheating husband. The husband,
