Louisiana Ranks #2 for States Where You’re Most Likely to be Cheated on

LAFAYETTE, La. (KPEL-FM) - According to a newly released survey, there are certain states across the US where you are most likely to be cheated on. Unfortunately, Louisiana is ranking way too high on this list, landing well within the top 5.

Let's look at this recent survey and see why Louisiana is so high up on this list.

Do People In Louisiana Cheat A Lot?

When people say infidelity seems more common in Louisiana, it often comes down to a mix of cultural, social, and personal factors rather than anything unique in the water.

Louisiana, especially places like Lafayette, Baton Rouge, and New Orleans, has a party-friendly, socially open culture. Between Mardi Gras, hundreds of festivals, nightlife, and music scenes, people just socialize more often in Louisiana.

With all of these opportunities to socialize, drinking is almost always part of it.

Alcohol lowers inhibitions, and Louisiana ranks high nationally for drinking and partying.
A mix of late-night events, parades, and “laissez les bons temps rouler” can lead to some risky choices.
