Hi Redditor1101. In my experience, it is about half of the time that women leave the relationship. This is because, often times, by the time the affair takes place, the relationship was already over for them. This is more common with emotional affairs that turn into physical ones. Again though, the other half do want to work to try to save the relationship.

There are women that do continue to cheat even while staying in relationship. Many times partner is aware and holding hope that woman will change.
