Married men and single women sleeping together.....?

Question

Is it more his responsibility to say no or hers, or do you think both have an equal responsibility?

Answer 1

both have an equal responsibility...but the married person took a vow.....and they should respect themselves and their loved one

Answer 2

This is an interesting one. When I was younger I used to feel that it was the married person's responsibility to say no, but I have definitely changed my tune on that now.
So much pain comes about from affairs, and I think at the risk of sounding too "Dr Phil", we have a responsibility to other human beings not to choose actions that could ever have that kind of emotional impact on them.
The only difference between the married guy and their mistress, is that the married person happens to know who it is they are hurting. The single person's actions are just as bad, just they may not see the impact of their actions like the married person would.
If you've ever had this done to you, you know you would never want to be a part of having someone else feel the way you do when this happens, even if you're the single one.

Answer 3

that depends on whether she knows he is married or not. For the argument we will say yes she knows. In that case each bears equal responsibility for saying no. He bears no more responsibility simply because he is the married man. If he asks she can say no just as easily. Sure he may move on to someone else but if he keeps getting no eventually he will get the hint

Answer 4

Depends. If the married man makes it known that he is married, then they are both equally responsible. But, if the man makes no indication that he is married, it is more of his fault because the woman can have no way to know that he is married unless she is told. In that case, I think it would be the married man's responsibility to say no.

Answer 5

The man has a responsibility to his wife. The single woman has no responsibility. More of the responsibility should fall on the married person, but as soon as the other party is aware of the marital status, they are also at fault.

Answer 6

Before i met my husband i was a single sexy happy woman, i would get involved with guys that were married or in a relationship, back then i would have said the ownerous is on the man because he should go looking but now looking at it from a different veiw i would go ape if anyone went near my man. so i can see both side of the coin and say its down to both of the sexes.

Answer 7

I think both people have an equal responsibility to say NO as long as the woman is aware he is married.

The man needs to say no because **he is committed to his wife.** Infidelity is despicable.

The woman needs to say no because **he is committed to his wife.** Also, if she were married, how would she feel if her husband ran around with single women? Not good I bet.

Answer 8

They are both doing wrong. It is both their responsibility in different ways and I also think the wife should get some time with the single woman. She can help clean, cook, run errands, and see how it really works in that relationship he keeps complaining about.

Answer 9

I think its both... His because his married and has made a promise to his wife....Hers because that's not a free man and why disrespect what does two have built....But its the married me who go out looking for single women......Most of the men that approach me are married or have been... but with me thats always a "no"......

Answer 10

I know I'm gonna get a lot of hate mail for this one. It's his responsibility. He's the one who made the vow to his wife not the other girl.

If the other lady KNOWs that the guy is married. Then yes she SHOULD say no but we live in a skanky world. Where this is not always the case.

Answer 11

Both are responsible, but he was the one that took the vows to another woman. I wouldn't want to be involved with someone involved with someone who is married any way. If he told her that he was married, then she should have kept moving. If he didn;t tell her, he's a dirty dog.
