Want to help me develop a best practice for this type of relationship? I prefer to refrain from contributing to the delinquency of a married person whenever possible due to their already established obligations.
It doesn't mean they can't help me improve my happy camper policy.
I just started a new job a few weeks ago and there is this married guy asking me out. I feel sorry for his wife. He told me he wants to trade in his wife for a younger woman and that Im the perfect candidate. He is so not the type to be married, I wonder why he even bothered asking his wife to marry him. He was going on about how much he likes me and he wants to take me to dinner one night. He even kissed me on my shoulder when he greeted me at work a few days ago. I was like WTH. Of course I wont date him, because its not right. If he isnt happy with his wife he needs to work on his marriage or just divorce her. No need in wasting her time or his time.

GROSS. Put a stop to that immediately. If your coworkers see him doing that, they're going to start talking about you.

What if they had a more open relationship and the wife was ok with the husband having a girlfriend?

Well Daniel, religous conotations aside (yeah, sp).... I bear witness to my own actions, and I have to sleep at night. And I can't if I am part of the deception to another's feelings and trust.
If they are all in agreement that is another issue. One that I am still not interested in because I do not share.
My husband and I have been together 16 years and we still go on dates. I still feel like we're "dating". Does this mean I'm dating a married man?
For single women who date married men - men who are married to other women - I think that's a rotten thing to do unless the wife knows all about it and has given her blessing.
Maybe the wife has a terminal illness and wants her husband to go out and live life, or maybe for whatever reason the wife wants her husband to be free to have sexual relationships outside the marriage... or whatever. Every marital situation is different. If there's an agreement then to each their own I have nothing to say about it.
But, if it's a sneaky behind the wife's back kind of thing, a dishonest thing, lying and betrayal of vows... and the "other woman" aka mistress knows that the man is married - both the married man and the other woman are homewreckers in my book. They are choosing to allow behavior that is hurtful and will cause suffering, and that's not acceptable.
If he wants to see other women he should end his marriage and the other woman just needs to respect the marriage and back off if she has any class or maturity about her at all. Adults shouldn't sneak around like children trying to steal cookies from the jar. But then, I guess that's why they do it - the thrill of it. Adrenaline junkies?
Go bungee jumping or something. Sheesh.
