Do Cheaters Drink More Coffee?

Posted: 10/05/2012 10:50 am

Our latest survey shows that those who enjoy more than three cups of coffee a day could be more inclined to have an affair.

Over 12,000 members of online affair service AshleyMadison.com were polled about their food and drink preferences, revealing that 86.4 per cent of our members are coffee fiends. Our average member guzzles 4.5 cups a day, surpassing the Canadian average of 3.2 cups (according to an Ipsos Reid poll). We raise a cup of Joe to all coffee-loving cheaters on our site and share with spouses what they should watch out for!

During an interview, our CEO Noel Biderman admitted, "Cheating hearts seem to run on caffeine, needing to be stimulated in more ways than one. The amount of coffee cheaters consume shows they need the extra energy to keep up with their extra-curricular activities while juggling work and family demands at the same time."

Here at AshleyMadison.com, we can only advise to watch out for the ones that frequent cafés. In our poll, 74.9 per cent of members get most of their caffeine fixes from coffee shops while only 25.1 per cent prefer brewing at home or work. Starbucks and Second Cup are the shops at the top of the list for those who venture out to score their multiple daily cups.

Clearly, the social aspect of coffee is huge, especially in the dating world. Escaping to a coffee shop allows cheaters the opportunity to check their phone messages, meet up for a quick rendez-vous, or maybe even chat up the Barista.

My mother is divorcing my father after 27 years of marriage. She's losing her claim to a pension as a result.

He cheated on your site. She decided to leave while waiting for the STD test.

So the lesson here is to just say NO to coffee dates. Go for beer on that first date instead!

So you polled 12000 users of your cheat...errrrm dating site about their coffee habits to see if they were more inclined to cheat, based on the national average of coffee they drink? Isn't that like polling everyone at a comic book convention asking if they like comics and then proclaiming your results as news?

I have another little known fact;

Water is wet (I polled those who just came out of pools/lakes/beaches/hot tubs/etc...)

Hey Blanken Berry,
We polled our members asking different questions regarding food and drinks preferences, and we discovered that members of our site drink on average more coffees a day than the average person in North America. Interesting considering that many people today pick coffee shops as their "first date" meet up place.
