How come some people still go for the guy or the girl who's already married. Don't get me wrong, I am still single and ready to mingle, but then those who are not single, should stay at home and take care of your wife or your husband, or you kid. Come on, you tied the knot, got hitched and then you're cheating. I don't approve this kind of behavior. We are given a chance to know the person before we marry them, unless its a shotgun wedding =p. But otherwise, we should be committed before we get married. If you feel that you still need to be single for longer time, DON'T get MARRIED. Its as simple as that. Your thoughts? Thanks.

In my opinion, people don't value wedding vows as much as they used to and morals have deteriorated a lot. Some people find it as a competition to be the other woman/man and play it as a game, regardless of who is getting hurt. I do agree with your thoughts on this subject. We are given a chance to really know the person we choose to marry, so this shouldn't ever become a problem. In February, I got divorced from my ex-husband who lost interest in his family and got with a younger girl. Getting divorced was probably one of the hardest things that I have had to do, but it's also the best decision that I could of made for my children and I. Now I'm in a relationship with someone that has proved all of my theories with my previous marriage to be misleading.

im sorry to hear about the divorce, but glad to hear that you have someone new to take care of you. If its for the sake of the children, then we should do everything for them to have a complete family.

not just marriage vows but also commitments, or their past courtships with each other. pressure started rising when ever problems occur and that's when the problems begin. either they hold on to it or simply lash out on some body else's body it's the reality that i wanted to avoid my entire life.

Of course, not just in marriage but also committed couples. Although that still hasn't been united under the eyes of God and the law, so there's still a chance to correct the mistakes made. I know that in marriage you can correct it but its like there is already a violation of the law of man and God and for me that is just important.

I know as a kid I always fell in love with girls elder to me. I used to admire girls elder to me. I liked to hang out with girls elder to me. The same has happend to me now. Most of the girls who have a crush on me are almost half my age. They know i am married but still they like to talk and flirt with me. Bcos, experience always counts...hahhaha...

Well, as long as the married men don't take advantage of those little girls' feelings, then there won't be any problem. Flirt, that's fine but if you go over and beyond, I would have to call a foul.

If you guide them as friends, that's just fine. AS long as it does not involve cheating your family.

Hi redphile, I was married. It was a bad marriage yet still. ...I took my vows and I didn't cheat ...not once. I thought of it for sure but no...never did. I did have men hit on me. Why do they go for married people? I don't know. I'll never understand that myself but then again, married people go after singles too. we can't judge or control what others do as it is a useless waste of time. All we can do is do is make sure that our own home is clean. I left my marriage with good concious and never cheated no matter how rough things got. On the flip side, I have had married or taken men hit on me and I've always turned them down.....If the wife gets upset then my thoughts are that they need to pay attention to the men they are with. I'm single so I see it all the time.....I would not want to be the woman waiting for these guys.

Thanks for your insights and I admire you for having control and discipline that you did not cheat your family. It's not just cheating on the wife or husband but also cheating the kids. The kids are the innocents in this kind of situation and I'm sorry for all the children living under a broken family. I hope that even at their age they can understand what is happening.

Hello redphile, It's easy to say those things when you're single. of course, I am single too but my brothers are married. before, they too were passionate and loyal to their wifes, and i thought they're lives are almost perfect. until recently, i heard rumors of my eldest siblings cheating on their wifes. one, i caught red handed when i got back home, he had the nerve to keep it from his wife so i had to tell her. he's so pathetic knowing he has a job and a smart man, probably smart stupid. that's why am not getting married out of passion, you gotta focus on the courtship and getting along thingy, or when one goes bored then that's when the problem starts.

I know people who have cheated on their spouses or partners. And they know me that I hate people like them. There are friends that do these, but they will definitely hear something from me. Get married when you don't want to be single anymore. You will know that in time.

I agree with you, when a girl or guy to get married, they can't go to play for other guys or girls, if they don't want to married,they can wait.

Yes that's right. Marriage is something that should last forever. It something we should think about before getting into the bandwagon.

I do agree with redphile cheating is wrong and i know friends and relatives that have cheated and their marriages have fallen apart. If you get married make sure you love the person who your marrying

That's right. If you are married, stay away from singletons and just do your job as a family man or woman. If you are single, make sure that you do all possible options to determine that you are with the right person, and not with a married person.

I agree that is very true, but unfortunately it does not work like that.... there are so many men and women, who end up having affairs and such with other people. I got involved with a man at the age of 17. He never wore a wedding ring, and was not married... but after a long while of seeing him, it turned out that actually he had a girl friend who lived with him, and they had two children. I was gutted, I did not know, as he spent so much time with me. I guess I was vulnerable at the time in being so young, and I fell for him. I think this is what happens in most situations involving married people, but obviously there are some single people who know that people are in committed relationships... I guess they just try their luck.

Oh that's too bad. Sorry to hear that. Well, its his loss, he is a liar and does not deserve a decent woman like you. I believe that there should always be trust in a relationship and honesty of course. We should learn how to really know people, but I know we are not perfect and we make mistakes. And sometimes because of love, we are blind.

I don't condone cheating, but I also don't think that married people are in jail and should never be allowed out of the house. The person who is sleeping with the married person is just as guilty as the married person.

both of them are guilty i agree. Although, the greater load on the married one. He or she should get away from the temptation.
