How do you feel, Married women? Married women only!!!!!!!?
If you are not a married woman, plz do not answer!!!! Ignorance will be ignored.
Shouldn't mistresses be sued for messing around with married men? I think they should be fined and penalized for knowingly wrecking a family.
What is your opinion?
I know it works both ways, I've resolved the penalty for the husband and yes you handle him first. He will be dealt with..

If she knows that he is married, the hell yeah!!! But if she doesn't know and he is lying to her as well, then no.

I've been that woman and I've been the one cheated on by a cheating husband, so I can address this from both ends.
On what basis would you sue, and why not the spouse also?

I think that it takes 2. the guy should be held as accountable as the mistress. if he was worried about wrecking his family he should not cheat in the first place. you cannot blame it all on the mistress. and yes I am married, but I am getting divorced, and not because of a cheating spouse.

It depends if they know that the man is married. I believe that its wrong yes. But you can not just blame the mistress. The husband knew exactly what he was doing. And perhaps his wife was not giving him what he needed.
Im not married or even in a relationship but i still feel that i have a right to my opinion.

There is a body of law called alienation of affection that has to do with another person "taking" a spouse away from another. I don't really agree with that because it takes two to tango and there is no guarantee the husband was honest about his wife and kids when he started the relationship with the mistress.

I am married, and I involved with a married man once, for a short time. My marriage not a happy one, my husband hit me and I never ever feel like a woman anyhow. I think, you cant' be judgemental and think only one sided. NO ONE and NOTHING can ever wreck a family if one does not let it happen. Just don't make it happen! Its as simple as that.

Welcome to the real world. This is what we married women have to go through all the time. There are alot of homewreckers out there and personally I think the guy play alot in making that decesion. To answer your question I think those ladies should get fined, don't try to mess up something good that someone else has

Y do we always blame the other woman? The problem starts at home. We can't believe in some sort of divine sisterhood that says we won't mess around with other women's husbands. The problem should be with the other woman, but your own husband. TAKE CARE OF HOME FIRST!

you really cant blame her.a cheater will cheat. if not with her, then with someone else. besides, he may be telling her just as many lies as his wife. i.e. "its been over for years; we are just toughing it out until the kids are older." or "we have an open relationship. she is seeing someone else too."
HMMM?!?! now there is something to think about....should a mistress be allowed to sue her lover for misrepresentation or maybe even emotional distress...you know, like a divorce. i mean if she was lied to as-well, her life was probably turned upside down too.
now that i have voiced the calm, rational opinion....i will say...
if my husband were to cheat on me, i would do more than sue her scank ***. in fact, i would be the one in a court room as the defendant.

Yes you probably can go ahead and sue for wrecking the family, but does that money bring it back together or any satisifaction? Believe me, the man will get what's coming to him and soon you'll be laughing.

I'm not currently married, but I was until my husband left me for his mistress. He married her and now he cheats on her, so I guess she is paying for it.
