My cousin did call me and ask for an advice because she happens to fall in love with a man who's married. She told me that she's willing to do everything just to be with this man, and as the man promise to leave his wife and kids just because of her. The man said he's not in love with his wife anymore and he's willing to continue to love and support his kids. It's an ordinary "you and I against the world, or right love at the wrong time." I told my cousin to break up with the guy because I can sense that the man is not good enough for my cousin, but still my cousin insist on not leaving the guy. Is it right or wrong falling in love with a married man or woman?

I feel its wrong falling in love with a married man/woman, because you said that the money is ready to leave his wife and kids just because he don't love his wife anymore and he loves ur cousin (this is today's situation), what if after few years making a relationship with your cousin , he might get bored of her then also he can say the same thing that he don't love your cousin anymore and now he want a break up and if they have kids by that time and they again will be single parented children, is that all necessary for your cousin, just try to explain her and make her understand.

We think the same thing, that one day there might be a possibility that the man will get bored or fall in love with other woman and the same thing leave my cousin behind, which I fear that to happens, that's why we do everything to convince her to leave the man and find someone that's single and free, because she's pretty, smart and got a good job. So she deserve someone who can stand and free to marry. Thanks for the comment.

I've known a friend who's been on the same situation. For me, it's wrong if it compromises marriage bonds or family ties or affect other peoples lives. Sooner or later if their relationship continues I'm not sure if the guy can still keep his promise to the girl. There will be a lot of tension in the both involved and they may not think of the days when they were still inlove. Your cousin must think rationally first before she gets into this kind of relationship. It's us for us to judge but just let her know the pro's and cons of getting into this relationship with a married guy with kids.

I already told her about it, the consequences if she will jump into this kind of relationship forever and I don't believe on the guy himself can keep his promises. You're right, there will be a lot of people who will get affected if ever she made that decision and lots of people will be hurt and his family and kids will be hurt badly. I just hope and wish she will listen to us and try to break her relationship with him, as she deserve someone better and good.

No matter what that guy told your cousin, it is NEVER ,NEVER, EVER right to fall in love with a married person.Even if he is no longer in love with his wife, he could have somehow work it out with her if your cousin is not in the picture. There could be a chance for them to fix the marriage.
Iam sorry to say this but your cousin is selfish. She did not think of the children having a broken family because she mingled with their parents' affair. sHE KNEW HE IS MARRIED ALREADY so why did she let herself fell in love with him?How can she be happy when there are people who are crying because their family was broken because of her? How can she bear his child when she knows that she encouraged him to orphaned some poor kids? What if she will be in her shoes one day, how would she deal with it, too?
I just hope she will wake up and end such selfishness and sorry to say, immorally...

I understand what you feel and I also feel the same thing, but she's my cousin and she needs people to understand and help her make the decision right. Me and my family knows about it and we all disagree about her relationship with that man, but she seems not listening to us and now she's on the verge of letting her self and life ruin with that kind of love. That's why I kinda think that what she feel is not love because love is not selfish and it gives consideration to others, it could be real pity to the kids when they get married because it's kinda different thing. My cousin told me that even though she's not around in the picture still his man will break up his wife. Which I feel doubtful.

The first thing I was thinking is dump him. If he can do that for his wife right now, then I think it could be a problem later for your cousin. If he can do this to his wife, have an affair behind her back, he could do that to your cousin too.
And as you said, he is not good enough for your cousin then.

You're right, that's the greater possibility in the future, as he's the kind of man who can't seem to keep his love and promises as what he did to his wife and he don't deserve my cousin who can leave everything for the sake of love. Every day we often remind her that there are so many people who love and care for her and not just his boyfriend just to keep her mind to make the right decision and leave the man.lol

sweety all men that has affairs says the same thing. i do not love my wife no more and i want to be with you. same story different person. all it is that your cousin will never have a true relationship with this man. she will only see him when he can get the time.that is when he can get away from his family and friends. so she is better off without him. she will never have a future with him. i have been there before and done it so she will be better off.

I can't disagree with you maryjane. That's what most of the men said and do who happens to have other women. When it comes to my cousin he's indeed very lucky as my cousin have everything and can give everything to the man he love. I wish she can make up her mind. Anyway, it's nice that you have learn your lesson.

Marriage is a serious commitment and divorce is a huge deal even more so if kids are involved truthfully the man more than likely will not leave his wife and kids;your right your cousin deserves better than a man who is probably just looking for a fling.But your cousin really should have more concern for the wife and kids if it was her husband or even her father would she think that the relationship is really ethical.

My cousin did deserve to have someone who's more free or let say a better guy than her current boyfriend who's already married. I agree with you, his kids will be greatly affected of the separation although when it comes to his wife it could be acceptable on her part and what's the use of living in one roof when there's no love at all. I hope my cousin will soon realized what is good and right for her.

Hi
I don't think so. Because falling in love is not under your control. You can try not to fall in love. But you must tell your cousin to leave that poor married man alone. Why does she want to continue with the married man? She will find plenty of bachelors around.

I don't think there is wrong or right to fall in love.
As far as my opinion is concern. To fall in love is a matter of attraction between two person which is dictated by their own heart...and mind their mind.
To fall in love is not wrong. This is come by surprise...

I don't think there is a right and wrong way to fall in love.it is the people's actions that can make love confusing or downright dangerous.love can make people do things that they wouldn't normally do.some people even see that doing harmful things is good,all in the name of love.I've seen a lot of new wherein a guy killed his girlfriend because she is breaking up with her.he doesn't want to because he loves her so much,so it is better for her not to be with someone else than with him,so he killed her.

We can not ontrol how we fall in love no matter how hard we may try. it is just something that happens or does not. I don't think there is a right or wrong way of falling in love. only when love goes against our better judgments could it be something wrong. Falling in love is a matter of the heart. What could be wrong about that?

I think there is. Yes, even though that loving someone is a right feeling, what makes it wrong is that anyone one must love the right person and not the wrong ones like those who are married or related to you by blood as example. For me, whatever happened, you must love those who are free from commitment, its not a good feeling to hurt somebody because of loving someone who are married. Many people will get hurt and suffered from this so better love those who are unattached. Good morning!

I think that in general, we should not let anything stop us from loving the person we care most.
However, I think there are some who would agree with me if I say that love is not selfish. I tend not to care if they would not agree with the things I do as long as I know that I am not hurting anyone. With the situation that your cousin has, I think that she should do what is right for everyone. Loving someone does not mean living with him for the rest of time. It may also be about just possession of the feeling but not really grabbing on to it for the sake of the some people.
We can always love but we can't always be loved back.
