That still doesn't matter. Women aren't pets. They, at least in the USA, have the right to make choices for themselves.

If the woman really wants to be in the relationship she can't be tempted to cheat, break up, or give her number to a random guy.

If what you are saying is true and NOT contrived, you unpleasantly remind me of a person I once worked with. He used to brag about how many women he would get to have sex with him, married women, single women, it didn't matter. How many he %$#&ed as he called it. He would point out various women where we worked and say something like "Oh yeah, I got her, she was a good lay". And I thought to myself "No way, this guy is putting me on". Until he tried it with MY wife!! As it was, he was a true sociopath, no empathy for anyone else. Very glib. Very, VERY manipulative in getting others to do what he wanted. No true feelings at all. I hope that I NEVER run into him again as I might wind up in jail. And No, it wasn't hers or my fault, it wasn't anything having to do with us. He was like a predator out look for prey.

Your post implied that women in relationships aren't free to make new decisions regarding those relationships. Perhaps I am a bit biased here, but when I was single I would hit on all women that were attractive and the women that were actually committed couldn't be swayed. The way I view it is it isn't my job to keep your girl interested in you. Plus, some women would say they had a bf, but their actions would speak differently.

I knew something was up.

Look, no one is arguing that the women aren't responsible for honoring their relationships. But that's not what the OP asked.

The question is about the OP and his actions ONCE HE KNOWS they have a BF.

That's it. Anything else is a different subject.

If they are committed they won't be tempted. You can't force a girl to leave her bf or cheat unless she wants to.

Morality is subjective. It can be argued that a bf is a not a husband. There is a reason he's not a husband. That means that either he or she have not finalized their choice for whatever reason. If it hasn't been finalized - it's fair game. That's one way to see it. Does anyone else see it like this?

Duh. Pretty much everyone here has said that.

If you KEEP TRYING, that's on you.
