Mere Exposure Effect

[wardenONfin]

Not exactly a looksmaxxing question but the mere exposure effect should mean that the more familiar you are to a person the more attracted you are to them. If that is the case why do foids cheat on their husbands if they've been "exposed" to their husbands the most?

Mere exposure typically reaches its maximum effect within 10–20 presentations, and some studies even show that liking may decline after a longer series of exposures. For example, people generally like a song more after they have heard it a few times, but many repetitions can reduce this preference. A delay between exposure and the measurement of liking actually tends to increase the strength of the effect.
