Woman are really nasty towards other women and want what they can not have.

This study finds women prefer taken men over single men. Even if all other qualities are the same the taken man is more attractive to women.
I think (or would like to think) that most women do want a man to themselves and wouldn't have interest in sharing. The reason the taken man is more attractive is the social proof aspect. Women figure if a man is already with a woman there has to be something good about him while they are suspect of the single man.
I met my girlfriend when I was hanging out with another woman. Sometimes I wonder if she would have been interested in me if I was alone that night. If this study is any indication the answer very well could have been no.
That can't be. I hope that isn't the case. I have been single my entire life. My narrative is most of the women I am attracted to aren't interested in me. Personally, being single is lonely.
There's a huge bias towards single people in our society. Think about the saying "all the good ones are taken." If you're over 30 and single, you'll be frequently asked why you're not married. The implication is that something is wrong with you if you're not married by a certain age. True, there are many people out there who are single, not because people think they have less value, but because there's actually something wrong with them. But it's also true that, as a society, we're often to quick to come up with reasons for why someone might be single.
I think you mean a bias against? Or discrimination towards?
Certainly, there is a perception that if a man is single and unattached after 25 or so, that other women must have found out something bad about him. This bias gets much worse after he's 30.
I guess these guys need to hire an escort! However, in the end, they may consider it to be the worst thing they ever spent their money on!
Not really...messing around with a guy that already has someone is a WASTE OF TIME. There are way too many men in this world for me to be worried about (1) particular "weenie". If he messes around outside his relationship, it only spells what kind of person he really is.
Based on my own experience, I'd have to say that it doesn't apply to me. And there have been quite a number of times when guys (hitched, or have girlfriends) got interested in me, but I can't remember reciprocating. The trust was already blemished, see.

You're right. I meant bias against.
And you're right about the bias getting worse after 30.

Oh, I totally believe that. When I was between girlfriends, butkus. But if I were involved, women started coming out of the woodwork. And when my wife and I announced my engagement, three different women in my office tried to bed me inside of a week. One went so far as to tell me that she had planned on breaking up with her boyfriend after the holidays to start dating me, like it was in her Day Planner or something.
I use to have a friend Rachel who we were drinking buddies and stuff, going out with her I was hit on alot more than going out solo, more than once she turned on a friend of hers to me or some girl in the bar after they asked about me and her and if we were "together".
