This is what is happening to me. I am getting hit on by married men often. In fact, I wish as many interesting single men would invite me out as married men. I have trouble believing that their wives do not know about it. My guess is the wives enjoy their house, car, lunches and shopping sprees, so they quietly look the other way while the husband takes care of himself.
In Europe, my understanding is that affairs are much more accepted. Here, everyone is having them, but nobody wants to hear about it! And it is the woman dating the married guy who is looked down on. While the men go out, drink their beers and play golf together and keep their mouths shut when their hear about their buddies' affairs!
I don't know where you get that viewpoint. Most people that I have had the discussion with, fault the married person. You know, it sounds to me as if you are looking for a reason.
First assumption is that she's luring dood out of his marriage. It takes two to tango, however.
In a previous life, I became (it was mutual) interested in a very nice lady at our running club. Eventually we became involved. She was, and is I am sure, a wonderful and very nice woman.
Eventually her Christian beliefs reared their head.
Turns out she was still married, unbeknownst to me. She was at the tail end of divorce proceedings. Almost single, but still with documents.
The fact that she was still married created great angst for her, made her very uncomfortable in our relationship, and eventually the chapter closed. Pity.
So that's another side of "dating" a married person.
Woof, I know exactly what you mean. There was a period of time several years back when I sunk into a depression over it. When I was in my 20s, I was very focused on my education and career. So, when I hit my 30s, it seemed like most of the men who were asking me out were married men who DID marry in their 20s and were disenchanted. Some of them were upfront about their "status" and others lied about it so I had to do detective work to find out the truth. The last thing I wanted was to get pulled into some stupid married people's drama!
I've come to the point where I believe that the majority of marriages are a farce.

Not to mention the spouse being cheated on might open up a can of whupass on the cheaters - in the form of gunfire. Just aint worth it!
If I found out my husband was cheating, my issues would be with him...I took vows with HIM, not the woman he is running around with. I have no problems directing my anger in the right direction

I don't know someone who shot the other woman but I know a former neighbor who found her hubby with her friend, beat the living tar out of her and made copies of the nude pics she found in his desk and enlarged them...large enough to post on the stop signs in the neighborhood
You know what's gonna suck? I have to leave so I can watch So You Think You Can Dance. The sucky part of this equation is ... that when I get back in here this thing will be 75 pages long and I'll have to read all the posts! Oh the time I'll have to put into this!
