Guys I know who got married have told me that women flirt a lot more since they've had on wedding rings, and it's not innocent flirting (harmless)...

Uh, I think every guy can attest to the fact that it's easier to get a woman if you already have one...

There are always going to be people in the world who've made mistakes or are doing something they shouldn't--if you don't want someone like that in your life, don't invite them in. Was your friend's sister someone you wanted to date?
No, I brought it up because I thought it was someone who would never do something like that. Very good student, straight As, got multiple scholarships for college and for graduate school, yet bangs married guys.

I think some "mistakes" are unforgiveable, and going after married people is one of them. It shows horrific judgment. This person is studying to be a psychologist. What kind of counselling could this person give if they cannot even run their own life or make smart choices?

Most of the women I know have done this. DO I just have a bad sampling based upon the people I knew growing up? How can I have such rotten luck that i just happen to know a bunch of women who do this sort of thing? It' snot like I sought them up. They're the people I grew up with, and attended high school with..

One of them, not this one, was someone who I kind of liked when I was younger, but she was too young for me. I saw her not too long ago and she told me that she had been seeing a married guy for awhile, despite her even having had a boyfriend. I lost all respect for her. Just a complete, and total turnoff.

Hate to break it to you, but married women get hit on all the time, many times in the presence of their children or even when their husbands step away ofr a short time.

Guess who's job it is to shut someone down?- The married one's.

As I suspected...."mother issues"

Women get it on with Men - so what's your point exactly?

There is plenty of blame to go around but there are also plenty of faithful men & women. They're just not as exciting to talk about.
