The Average Affair Will Cost You $2,664, According To New Survey - GoFuckYourself.com

Tempted to have an affair? You might not be able to afford it.

The average affair will run you roughly $2,664, according to a new survey from VoucherCloud, a coupon and discount code site. (What, you thought regular hotel check-ins and dinner dates came cheap?)

The survey, part of the site's wider research into the leisure spending of Americans, polled 2,645 people who were 25 years or older and married for at least five years. Nearly a quarter of the respondents (24 percent) said they had cheated on their partners.

From the cheaters' responses, VoucherCloud determined that the average affair lasts six months and starts two years into the marriage. On average, two-timing spouses spent $444 a month on their affair partner, broken down into five specific categories:

Hotel bills: $123
Dinner and drink tabs: $162
Gifts: $54
Date activities, such as movie tickets: $69
Miscellaneous: $36
Total: $444

Multiply $444 by six months -- the average lifespan of an affair -- and the total cost of a little extramarital fun comes out to $2,664.

Not included on that tab? The price of marriage counseling and/or a divorce attorney, should your spouse find out. Not. Worth. It.

Not sure how $2600 is some how a big number...
How many times are you seeing the other person?

ONCE a month?
Are you staying in a Motel 6 to pay only $123?
What kind of cheap shit gift are you getting from the dollar store to only pay $54?

They forgot to mention body disposal and that ain't cheap let me tell you.

Nevermind the legal fees and other expenses when your spouse finds out and divorces you.

It's an average. Many do not go to hotels or buy gifts.

Shit..that's cheap.. for how many fucks? At 2 per week for six months that's like $54 a pop.. Are they trying to promote affairs?

That's expensive, not cheap. Sex is free when you have affair because both parties want that.

If you're including the cost of hotel rooms and romantic dinners to facilitate that "free sex" (the way the sex on a date isn't free once you include the dinner/booze/entertainment) it's cheap as fuck.

They left out the cost of VD shots.

Why do you imagine all couples go to hotels? Majority do not go, they simply do not have that much money or have other places to meet etc. Also not everyone goes to dinners. Maybe sometimes, but definitely not every date... After all they must "hide" at least a little. In big cities maybe, but in small towns there would not even be possible.
So all that is where that "low" estimate comes from.

That's cheap!
