A divorce attorney has revealed there are three industries where men are less likely to cheat on their partners.

There's tons of expert's opinions out there on what to look out for when it comes to signs of an unfaithful partner.

From certain apps to 'red flag' behaviors, there's a lot on how to spot cheating, however, what about signs of a faithful significant other?

Well, according to Arizonan-based divorce attorney, Kate Simonds, a person's job might have an impact on whether they are likely to cheat in a relationship or not.

Taking to TikTok, she started by stating her findings are anecdotal and more of a generalization - that is, there's no scientific basis behind it, so don't go accusing your man and kicking him out if he happens to work in a particular field.

Simonds explained: "If you've lived through infidelity it is so heartbreaking and so don't take this as science.

"If you're in a relationship with one of these types of men, you're safe. Are you ready?"

Which professions are less likely to cheat?

Pharmacists

The divorce attorney revealed health workers, particularly pharmacists who aren't on the emergency frontlines, are on the safe list as one of the least likely to become two-timers.

"No cheating in pharmacy," Simonds said. "Even the lovely Walgreens Pharmacy."

Accountants

If your man crunches numbers for a living, he's less likely to be looking elsewhere.

Simonds said: "You're pretty safe with an accountant.

"I see a pretty common personality type. You should be good with no cheating with an accountant."

Farmers

According to the divorce attorney, it's good news if your man works in fields because he's the least likely out of all the workers on this list to be playing the field.

Crowning farmers as number one for loyalty, she said: "If you are married to or in a relationship with a farmer, I predict no cheating will occur."

Dozens of her followers agreed too, with one writing: "Farmers don't have time to cheat," while another said: "Amen sister. Married to a farmer. All I have to worry about is him buying more cattle and looking at farm equipment online. Asking me when we can attend the next sale."

So who is on the other end of the scale?


Which professions are more likely to cheat?

Pilots and flight attendants

It's bad news if your man works as a pilot or a flight attendant. Speaking to her 40,000 Instagram followers, Simonds revealed that airplane workers are on the list of the most common cheaters, but they aren't the worst of the worst, which we'll get onto shortly.

However, this surprised one follower, who wrote: "I work in the airline industry and I'm surprised pilots and FAs are number five and not number one. Sooo may are divorced and lots of hanky panky going on."

Military and police

I'll hold your hand for this one: they uphold the law, but not so much when it comes to their vows apparently.

This has also been put forward by another divorce attorney, who claims that policeman 'walk around with authority', while those in the military tend to be 'treated with respect' at their jobs, adding: "Then you come home and all of a sudden somebody's asking you to take out the trash. I think that that's a difficult kind of transition to make."

As another first-hand testimony read: "I was single in the military thank god. I saw some of the worst husbands and wives ever while I was in service."

Bartenders

There might be a bit of a theme here, as the late nights away from home and unsociable hours also makes bartenders potentially fall in the cheating category.

Firefighters

Yet the worst of them all is firefighters, according to Simonds, who placed them in the number one spot to be unfaithful out of any profession, adding: "Number one, firefighters. For sure."

Salesmen

According to research by the online gambling platform, RantCasino, in 2023, 85 percent of affairs occur in the workplace, with one in five employees confessing to doing the dirty deed with a work colleague.

At the top of the list here is salesmen, with researcher Laura O’Brien telling The New York Post: "Often with irregular working hours and numerous work functions or networking events to attend, [the sales industry is] at the forefront as a prime breeding ground for infidelity."

Teachers

The second most common is those in education - professors, teachers and lecturers - at 13.7 per cent (via Yahoo! Life). Once again, it was found that long work hours and stressful conditions could factor into the decision to be unfaithful.
