Ok female mylotters do you have the answer to this one? Why do females feel its ok to date a married man? If women learned to say "NO" married men wouldn't be able to cheat. Thoughts or comments welcomed.

I have no idea why a woman would want to be with a married man. Maybe it is the challenge to some of them that makes them want to do it. Maybe they are women that really don't want a relationship at all. In either instance, it's not accepatable at all to me. Now getting into the works of it, if they take that man from the wife, there is no doubt that once a cheater..always a cheater. It is funny to me that they would think that their relationship would be any different than his other one.

Hi Lelin, for the same reason men date married women. It's not all one sided.

This is a very complicated question, and something that I think most women, myself included, say " I have no idea, that's horrible" to most of the time. But I think it is maybe deep down an insecurity issue, where they want to triumph over the wife. Or else yes it is just a attention, or money issue, they can give stuff that the wife does not give the man, and so they get attention, or materialistic things in return.

I never dated a married man ever since. now that I am married, I really hate to see single or married women dating married men because they are destroying a family. I couldn't imagine what will i do if my husband would date another woman. For sure, our family will be in total wreck.

Well that is a personal choice or preferences of a person because a female who like to date married men cannot be totally judged as other woman, we should give some benefit of fact that we really do not know the real situation and stand ups they find it reasonable for men. Dating has many interpretations and some are acceptable circumstances aside the fact that tradition and culture play a part to it. There are some countries that has a culture of multiple wives and we have nothing to do about their beliefs. If ever it is positive that dating married men will tend to destroy one's family. and opposing one's beliefs and religion then I just hope that they will still go with moral values and conscience. But, in general, some women do prefer dating married men for they have the mentality that having a married men will be enough to compare having a Father figure which they think is more mature and responsible. Unless they have experienced it, then different realizations either good or regrets will be encountered.

according to a friend whom i chat a little while ago, married man is easy to be with because they understand your wants and needs especially if it comes to money matter. why? simply because married men often felt guilty about not having or even spending quality time with you so they often shower you with gifts and trips and cheques. whereas compared to a single guy, you have to cry your heart out and wait for decades just to be given a single ring. well, thats my friends point of view.

Yes, but the married man has to be pretty rich to be able to support a wife, kids and a mistress. Normal married men don't usually have that kind of money to support the mistress. So I wonder what it is then. Thanks for your input.

female marrying married men or dating them consider them more mature and experienced. They feel like kids in front of them and expect to be pampered. Also they do not need to be taught manners or any thing else what makes women happy. so female are sometime more attracted toward married men
