Question is mostly for the ladies in the house, any generational differences would be good info too.
well, i am just very curious whether a woman can be emotionally and sexually involved with more than one man, and for how long, what factors could be involved? here are some examples i am aware of but i'm curious on any thoughts you may have on the topic.
1. a woman is in an LTR but ends up cheating with another guy then breaks up to be with him. how long could the infidelity period last before she breaks up?
2. a woman is dating a guy but not bf/gf yet, however, she has a fwb on the side that's fairly passionate but she thinks they are not compatible enough for an LTR. how long can she keep this going? can she keep it like that for as long as it's good?
3. a woman is in an LTR/marriage and isn't getting her emotional/sexual desires met from her SO, so she has a male "mistress" (pool boy, haha) on the side. can she always keep it "just physical" like a man?

thoughts? thanks.
I am a married female in my forties.
As for number one...
The cheating never should have happened during the relationship. If she was not happy with her significant other, then she should have spoken to him about that. The two of them should have tried to fix their problems together. If that was not possible for some reason, then she should have ended their relationship before getting involved with anyone.
As for number two...
I was never into FWB and so that does not apply to me.
From what I've observed many will certainly do it, especially during their peak attraction years and they don't have to have any emotion involved in it either. How long just depends on the individual.
The trouble with #3 is that the "pool boy" is not an emotional relationship so it doesn't fit the spirit of the original question. Also, if I had a FWB and I got into a relationship with someone else, the FWB would have to stop. The first question I can't answer to but I'm thinking that if it were me, if I were to get into a relationship w/ someone else while married, my feelings for my husband would have to be long gone but I don't really know.
The trouble with #3 is that the "pool boy" is not an emotional relationship so it doesn't fit the spirit of the original question.
okay, i get the one-time fling thing. i guess what i am asking is can a woman have an extended physical relationship with a man and not get emotionally involved? even with a pool boy
btw, i think it is crazy how many cases we see with female high school teachers having sex with teen males..... and they end up zany in the court house? talk about an emotional rush, they have to have addiction issues.
Some can I guess. Although, I've never seen it. I've seem women who are not emotionally attached to either but claim to be attached to both. And I've seen some women who claim to be emotionally attached to one but aren't emotionally attached to either. And I've seen some women claim to be emotionally attached to one for various logistical reasons, but are actually attached to the other.
I can not do it.
Two men I don't genuinely care about? Sure.
But I don't have enough in my emotional repertoire to be genuinely attached to two different men. Nor do I have enough to be genuinely attached to one while playing with another that I do not have an attachment to.
For good or bad, I'm an "all or none" type person.
