has lived apart from his wife for two years, is it morally ok to date him.....

I would never date a married man, even if he was separated from his wife. If this man does not want to be with his wife anymore, why is he still married? If he is ready to start dating, he should clear up his past first and be free to do so. Even if he is only legally married, it is wrong to date him. Once he is free to date, go for it.

Sweetie, I don't want to be mean, nor do I want to offend, but I'm going to have to ask where it became okay for you to be second best? What the heck happened to your self esteem that you settle for someone who has his own set of issues to work out. This guy is still committed to this woman for some reason. Living apart doesn't always mean he's on the market...no matter what he tells you. There could be a million other reasons for this. Did it ever ocurr to you that maybe she threw him out for this very reason? Or that he could just have this other apartment while he maintains his perfect family life somewhere else? There are too many "what ifs" in this situation. And if he's made no move forward towards the divorce after two years, it's not likely it's going to happen anytime soon. You deserve better than this. Stop wasting your time on someone who isn't willing to put in as much committment to you.

You would still be dating a Married Man. You may get pregnant by a Married Man. It's morally wrong until he gets a divorce.

According to who's morals? You'll find people with different sets of morals. I think the main question is whether YOU feel comfortable? Do what your gut feeling tells you is right for you...I may date a guy who is separated because I have a good feeling about the situation yet avoid someone who is single but still feels strongly about some girl he just had sex with.

If he truly wanted to get a divorce, he would, and as far as living apart, that really doesn't matter, he's legally married, and while they may live apart I doubt his wife would appreciate it. If he was already divorced, then that's another story.

Sure it is ok to date him, but be careful not set yourself up for getting hurt. Ask yourself, just why has he not divorced? Also are you sure he has lived apart from his wife this long? How do you know this, have you been to his place? Be cautious, he may still be emotionally involved with her, therefore he may not be able to give you what you deserve....So it is really up to you. It is your decision. But you must be doubting, or you would not be asking...you really know inside what is right.

Not unless he has a final decree of divorce. Doesn't matter WHERE he lives, he is STILL married. Until one of them takes the initiative and files for divorced he is NOT on the market. I suggest you ask him WHY he hasn't gotten a divorce if he doesn't plan on living with his wife any longer.

NO.....this is an accident waiting to happen. If this guy is really interested in moving on....what is holding him back. All the old excused are trite and unacceptable.....sounds like he wants to best of both worlds......

NO it's not ok, even if he's seperated from his wife he's still married to her.
