Why do women have affairs with married men? I want to know what the allure is to go out with a man who has a family and children. Are they looking to fall in love? Or is it simply that they know that the relationship will not last long and therefore engage in something that will eventually end.

Some are actually in love with the married person. Some are attracted to their stability and in a certain way it gives the married person power in their eyes, so their attracted to that too.
Either way, it's morally wrong from both parts.

Great question. As a married man I've also noticed that I seem to get many more women coming on to me now then when I was single.
Don't know the real reason, but I have my own opinion/reasons, some of which I've put to test just to be sure.
1. Men lie for a piece of ***. We'll say whatever needs to be said in order to get a young lady in the sack. Women in bad relationships are especially susceptible.
2. Some women are just as "dawgish" as men. They want what the other woman has. They feel that if she can make him happy he's gonna really love what I can do for him. Unfortunately we men haven't evolved to the point of saying "no".
I have many other reasons why this happens, but I'd probably run out of room. Hope this helps a little. Good Luck!!!

I think it's because they haven't found the right guy out there, so they are willing to believe that this man is great, his wife just "doesn't understand him/satisfy him". I guess they assume that the married man is open to a long term serious commitment. I don't know why they think that. If he'll cheat on one, he'll cheat on another. Many women believe the line that he's leaving his wife for them. Bull. It's a gullible and desperation thing. Sad.

I don't really know, but I will take a guess...
1. They fear Commitment. Dating a married man means no commitment.
2. They need Money. Older men have worked longer and make more money, but most of these men are married.
3. They have Self Esteem issues. They sleep with another woman's husbands and they feel prettier or sexier because he wants her instead of his wife (which is not a fact) but it temporarily boosts her esteem.
Just my opinion.

For what ever reason a women decides to have a relationship with a married man.....It's wrong!
I think that some of these women think that they are capable of changing a man and crave that commitment that marriage is suppose to bring. But, I also agree with both your reasons.

That depends if your a married women then your both have something to lose and that makes it better but when u married and the other person is not u have to the chance of them wanting to blow the whole thing over something stupid.

No strings attached would be my first guess. Then again, most married men are settled (sorta), have a job, MATURE, and responsible. I suppose this is what women look for in a mate. I would think most married men take care of themselves and would be disease free because of their family. How's that?

Both.I have been the other woman and don't recommend it.I think it was the allure of doing something bad in my case.I also hated his wife so that was probably a factor.They had no kids so I really didn't feel guilty.

I think some women don't care. Also think it's because he has a JOB, and the danger of doing something that is knowinly wrong gives them excitement they can't find on their own!! And he's an real prize to get, if he cheats on his wife, who's to say he won't go to another one, and another one..........

Besides the woman being a slut. It is safe to be with a married man, no worries about commitment.
