Real Talk: 11 Things You Should Know Before Dating a Married Man

You’ve started dating a married man, and things look innocent. He may be your work pal or just part of your friend group. But now, as you spend time with him, you can’t deny that there is a strong attraction. But you also can’t deny a wedding ring that he wears (or takes off) whenever you see each other.

What should you do? Friends and family may be telling you to put on the brakes, but you’ve never quite felt this way before. That’s why you ended up searching for more information on the Internet. Maybe there is a chance that makes dating a married man OK? Or any valid justifications for your hope to build a strong relationship based on as mulheres estГЈo em escolta braand? true love with your new date?

We get it, and we’re not here to judge. Instead, we’re going to dive deep into what is involved in dating a married man, why women fall for guys who are married, and what you should expect if you pursue this forbidden fruit.

Isn’t It Dangerous to Be the Other Woman?

Again, we are not here to justify dating a married man or be the policy of truth for your relationship. Ultimately, does his marriage even matter if it is true love? That’s something you have to decide for yourself.

One thing is sure, though: you are putting a lot at risk here if your affair touches his wife and she doesn’t know it (yet!). There’s a good chance that as the woman in the situation, you will receive more ire than the married person you are dating – both from the betrayed wife and the general public. And the backlash you receive will be even stronger if children are involved. I do hope you’ve paid attention to this before your relationship started…

It’s unfair but true – and for self-obvious reasons. A married man is seen as having made a mistake. That’s why a woman desperate to keep her family together will see you as the one who led him astray, no matter how willingly he participated.

A betrayed woman loves him enough to marry him in the first place to forgive and invite him back. He’ll keep fighting and waiting for him. So don’t imagine that being in love with a married man will ever become easy for you.

Are there any exceptions to this? There ple, a couple may live entirely separate lives, but stay married for practical reasons. If everyone involved in this triangle is honest with one another and it doesn’t go against your moral code, you can go for it. You may also feel okay having a relationship with a married man if he is in an open marriage.

Still, these are going to be rare exceptions. In any case, it is your responsibility to behave ethically or accept the social consequences of your choices.

What Draws Women to a Married Guy?

1. His attraction: She may genuinely fall for him despite the potential consequences.
2. Her low self-esteem: Such might be particularly susceptible to the charms of a married man and subconsciously seek out a relationship that will never go anywhere.
3. Her desire to attract: Some women enjoy the sense of conquest and don’t care who they hurt.
4. Their loneliness: It’s part of human nature to seek a relationship not to feel alone. It can drive a woman to a married man.

If you’re thinking about dating a ine your motivations. Going for a married guy is a big decision so make sure it’s really worth it – and you won’t eventually find someone better than him.
