maybe marriage is a bad word. maybe long term relationship is better.

Great question. In my case I'd hope so, but in feeling and knowing a wonderful love, I'd accept that it might never happen.
BTW, if you are divorced, or he is, or both are, then the issue is no longer "THE OTHER"
Accept that the feeling exists, savor it for all it can offer, and don't press an issue of a bond by "contract"

Sure, it could happen. But sometimes the draw for the "other man" is thinking a woman is "safe" because she's already "taken" and therefore he can have his fun with no strings attached. If that's the case, then he may run for cover if you decide to make yourself truly available. Before you do, make sure that breaking up your marriage is really worth the risk, and figure out whether your conscience can deal with that.
Good luck, whichever way it goes.

Sure it happens all the time. Generally the whole thing falls apart after 3-5 years. Keep in mind if he is cheating on with some else you'll never be able to trust him. If you're cheating on someone to be with him he'll never trust you.

Yes, but it depends on the circumstances. If she is on her way out of the marriage, it could very possibly work. If you have been the other man for awhile, probably not.

I think it can if you really want it to but then again... I guess when you have the other man its suspenseful and all that Bcuz your sneaking around, but once you can have it out in the open, the thing about sneaking around isnt there and its no big deal... That my thoughts on it, i think it depends on the person...

Nope. I was the other man. And when she left her husband, after some time we grew apart.

No. The "hunt" is gone. Plus, you'll always suspect the other will find another, just as you did now.

Sure it can. It can also lead to him being the other man to someone else as well. It's called KARMA!!!!
