Men don't initiate most of the divorces because they're more likely to stay with the women they cheat on. A man with a mistress will stay with his wife as long as he gets thrilling sex elsewhere - it functions like a temporary escape from his home life.

Women who fall out of love more often want to separate from their spouse entirely.

I don't know (or don't really care) which of these situations is "better" or less damaging.
