Why discourage cheating?

Theres someone who talks to me kind of frequently. He said he likes me, and I would flirt back but he has a girl at home. He asks me to hang after work but I'm afraid we're going to be tempted to- more than just talk. Should I accept his invite and simply trust myself- that I won't do anything that I'll feel bad about later. Or should I constantly reject him but keep the friendship we we have?

It's really tempting because this opportunity NEVER comes around for me. Throughout high school and college I never had much contact with guys. And I like him.

    He just wants sex. He's already in a committed relationship.

    Have some self respect... He wants to cheat on his "girl", do you really want to be the "other woman"?

    If neither one of you are married then there's no harm in this at all but if either of you are married, don't do it.

    Don't kid yourself into thinking that a guy and a girl can become good friends without having it go farther if you are already attracted to each other. That's not necessarily a bad thing either. That's why we date.....so that we can find the right match for ourselves in life and live happily ever after, hopefully!

    Don't hang around after work with him. Don't even test yourself with this temptation, even if you trust yourself. It's not worth the challenge nor the drama. Don't flirt with him anymore. Since he knows that you know he's already with somebody else, he has in his mind that you're ok being the side piece. That's not the kind of thing you want to be connected to in any way. Find somebody who isn't already in a relationship with another woman.

    So your willing to hang out with a guy who is in a relationship to "just talk" and you like him...

    Depends on how cool you are with being the other girl and sharing a guy with another girl, but if you ever become his girlfriend he will do the same to you, but with a different girl.

    My mother says "If you were the other girl once, you can never expect to be the only girl" in other words, if he is really willing to treat his girlfriend this way, what makes you think it may be different if you get with him. I know its hard to like someone and not want to go for it, but you should consider yourself first.

    Before you give in to his advances you must remember that he would probably do the same thing to you if you give in to his advances. You may become his primary gal for a while then he would find another interest and you would be the one sitting at home while he is playing with another girl.

    It's best to stay away. Being that you haven't had much contact with guys there is a good chance you could fall for him easily and if he won't leave his girlfriend, he is going to keep using you while you sit there falling in love with him. Keep it as friends until he becomes available.

    he is a dog ..just looking for fresh meat.. how would you feel if you was the girl friend and he was talking to another girl like he has been you. he is the type if you got pregnant he would have nothing to do with you .. all he want to is hit it and quit it .. you no more than a *** bucket to him.

    He is with someone why would you even be tempted? Let's hope his girl doesn't catch you both or someone who knows him tells her . You know right from wrong.

    It seems to me he has already made it clear he wants more then just a friendship with you.. I don't think it is smart to go out with a guy who is already in a relationship...... Just remember, what he is doing to her, he will do to you.
