I think that's probably true. I mean obviously there are a myriad of reasons why people cheat. I think many people say 'Well just break up with the person you are with instead of cheat.' The reality is far more complex, that people often times still have feelings for the first person but are incomplete or simply not sexually satisfied. I do think cheaters maybe are trying to protect the feelings of their spouse. However for me, that just amplifies their cowardice. What's going to hurt their feelings more? Telling them that you aren't happy with the relationship you are in, or screwing around behind their back. Also, one way or another you are probably going to get found out anyway.
You have no reason to call it cowardice other than your own preconceptions about people. And I still claim you're possibly being biased since bias doesn't necessarily mean you're the one who's been cheated on. What's even to be cowardly about?
No, they're more likely not going to be found out anyway. You're making a lot of unsupported claims.
