First of all, it isn't just the guys. Women can have affairs and tell lies as well.

Infidelity is often caused by feelings of insecurity. The person may feel they need something outside of themselves to pump them up. Normally, they would turn to their spouse or partner, but perhaps they feel this person is unavailable. Maybe the partner is pregnant or going through something, or they perceive that the person is not too affectionate or has too many strings and conditions. He may question his own masculinity because of something that didn't go his way, so he may have an affair or hire a professional sex worker just to have someone make him feel special and make him forget about what is threatening his ego.

On lying, here are some guesses. Guys tend to have more of a need for autonomy, space, and independence, so when a partner is involved, lies help give them more independence. If the girlfriend gets too close or he feels smothered, he may turn to another who isn't as demanding and suffocating. Then he may lie about the encounter. He may lie in other areas too just to keep from being nagged, which he perceives as attempts to control him.

People of any gender may lie for various reasons, such as fear of consequences, desire to protect themselves or others, or to avoid conflict. It is important to communicate openly and honestly in any relationship to maintain trust and understanding.
