Private Detective: Some Professions Cheat on Partners More Often Than Others
Private detective Paul Evans, who has investigated thousands of infidelity cases, says people in five professions cheat on their partners most often. His conclusions rest on personal experience rather than scientific proof.
Private detective Paul Evans, who has investigated thousands of infidelity cases, believes people in certain professions cheat on their partners more often than others. Latvian daily Latvijas Avīze reported his observations on 15 October. The outlet lists five professions that the detective names as the most frequent offenders.
Why the workplace matters
The article notes that people usually spend more time with colleagues than with almost anyone else in their lives, so office romances develop all the time. As an example, it cites a survey by the US business magazine Forbes, in which 40% of respondents admitted cheating on their current partner with a colleague.
An important caveat
The published text stresses that the findings do not apply to every member of a given profession. Working in one of the listed fields does not mean a person is cheating on their partner. Evans speaks from his experience with the cases he has investigated. A scientifically proven link between profession and infidelity has not been established.
The piece appears in the outlet's sections on relationships and psychology. It is aimed at readers worried about a partner's faithfulness, but the detective's view remains the subjective assessment of a single specialist.
