Single women dating married men?

It never ceases to amaze me that single women will date married men. (Didn't they read Ann Landers when they were growing up? It never ends well.) Right now I can name two close friends and one aquantance that I know are in this kind of unproductive relationship. How many do you know?

    It's pure madness, isn't it?

    I don't know anyone who has knowingly done this. (A friend did go out on a few dates with a guy who claimed he was "separated, waiting on the divorce decree to arrive" but dumped him when she learned it was more like "kinda separated, but still sleeping with my wife.")

    However, growing up, my high school boyfriend's mother was one of these woman - perpetually disappointed and bitter, and I could tell even then, neglecting her kids to keep these doomed relationships going.

    With that horrible example, I can't imagine ever doing that to myself, my kids or supporting a friend who chose to do the same thing. It's just too much of a mess.

    Real life is messy, and it's one thing to realize that you're romantically attracted to someone new when you're DATING someone else. But once you're married? No way. There's just too much at stake.

    Some lonely people can be really weak and short sighted. Fooling themselves. Instant gratification at the expense of long term pain which hurts many people, manifests in many situations. This is one of them. One of the worst. It's like crack for lonely horny people. I'm proud to say I never have nor would I ever do that to my family, or to someone else's family.

    I have one friend who she is seeing a married man for about 2 years now. I flat out told her that she was wrong, but she says he's the one that is in the wrong because he's the one that is married and not her. But I told her she better be careful because I'm a big believer in "what goes around, comes around" and it will happen.

    I dont know any, but if I did I would cut them out of my life because being the other person in a marriage is horrible, marriage is sacred and no one has the right to try to break one up.

    None! I wouldn't really want to associate with women that have such flimsy morals. Do you tell them that you disapprove? Also, who cares about their relationship with the married man?! What about this guy's poor wife and family?

    That is messed up. Those women are shameless and have no ethics and integrity. The men are not much better if they cheat on their wives. PIGS!

    It sickens me.

    It's like hello? Are you that desperate to find a man that you have to look for one that's already taken?
