I'm a single, 28 yr old and have dated a few married men. They're pretty nice usually but well umm they are married. My friends say i shouldn't date them.

I think its not really right to date married men because you know what your life would be like if you decided to have a relationship with them.And that only means that they cant be faithful to you just thinking that they are doing it to their wives now, why cant they do it to you. Be safe and dont put yourself in that situation, a lot of single guys out there and just wait and you'll find a perfect partner soon.

of course it's wrong! they are only nice before you sleep with them..but try after that...most probably true colour will be out. put yourself in the wife position...would you want your husband to have an affair?

For me it is wrong if the man is still married but if the man is already getting his annulment or divorce then its ok.

Yes, of course, it's wrong! You might want to ask yourself why you are drawn to date a married man. Is it because they are "safe" and you don't have to commit to anything? Married men who cheat on their wives will most likely cheat on their "affairs", too. What's to gain? Nothing but heartache and loneliness since they're never around when you need them. They're home with the wife and kiddies! You'll just be a fill-in for the extra time they have. I agree with your friends. It's futile!

Yes and No. Yes, coz the man is no longer single and has now a family of his own then here in a date with you who is still single. Whoa! foul. No, if its a friendly and group date i.e. in a corporate world. But never in a date alone with a married man. Men that are married shouldn't date girls that are single or vice versa coz its not good to see them out together. Just put yourself in the shoes of his wife...what do you think would you feel? My advise for you is to find a man that is also single and available and please...don't push yourself into dates with those married man. Or else .... you should be aware and know of its circumstances.

It depends on your moral. If you don't feel a wrong in it, then it's o.k., but if you feel guilty, then you shouldn't.

I think it is wrong. If he is in the process of getting a divorce, anulled or is separated then I think its ok but not if he is married.

Here is the most intelligent response I can muster for that kind of question: DUH! You wouldn't want someone dating your husband (if you had one) the man's wife doesn't want you dating him either, it's not all about you, there are other people to consider.

Well, this is probably only a question you can answer. We can give our opinions but that is just telling you what we would do. Only you know what works best for you. However, you might want to think about how you would feel if you were the wife of the married man you're dating. Would you be hurt?

but why would you want a married man? Do you see yourself with this person in the future? Do you think they will leave their wives for you? If they did would that make you happy? THey are telling you rightnow they cant be faithful. I would never trust or want a man who cheated on his wife. I think its bad for you to knowingly date a married man.

absolutely it's wrong, you should respect his marriage even if he doesnt, how would you like to be in his wife's position.
