For some men, it is the thrill of getting by with it. For other men, they are unhappy in their marriages. For others, it is an ego trip.
I know that you asked men, but I worry about women that get involved with men that are in other relationships, because 98% of the time, they end up getting hurt.
You see, it is very rare for a man to leave his wife for his mistress. The mistress sits there alone and has to wait for him, day after day. She does not get the benefit of spending the holidays with him, sharing his home, enjoying the perks of his financial well being, etc...When he leaves, or passes on, she gets nothing in return for all of the life that she has invested in him.
If he does decide to leave his wife, he knows how to cheat, and what he will do WITH you, he will do TO you. It is sad, but true. The mother of his children will always get more respect, and financial care too.
If you are in this situation or contemplating being in this situation, please reconsider. Life is too precious to waste. You can not get back those young years. That chances are soooo slim that you will ever get any long term benefit out of it.
Sure he will take you nice places, maybe even pay for your place to live. His stability will be in his home, however. Sure the sex is good too, but how many holidays will you be sitting alone wishing that you could be celebrating with him instead of that glass of wine or other lonely friends.
Value yourself, and find a man that will give all of himself to you. You deserve it.
If this sounds like the voice of experience, it is not, but I have several friends that I had to help get through this. One almost committed suicide, because he told her that he was leaving his wife (that never slept with him lol) for her. He is still with his wife and now has another mistress on the side. Thank goodness she was still young enough to move on and have a family of her own.
Good Luck!

Let me firstly say I have never taken a mistress. I won't say the thought hasn't crossed my mind, although in a slightly different form than you are probably thinking, but that being said this is at least in part an academic study for me. I do, however, have a great deal of knowledge about it, so I hope I can be of some service.
A mistress is typically a matter of attention. Men like it, as much as women do. Having two women who want to be with you is a bit of an ego trip, and sexual variety doesn't hurt either. That being said, if it is someone who is unhappy with their current situation, then it can be an escape. It can be a way to have ones cake and eat it too, to maintain the ball and chain for the sake of kids, finances, appearances, career, etc, while still having the love everyone dreams of. Mistresses are different things to different people, and for no two will it be exactly the same.

I don't cheat on my women, not now and not ever.
However, from things that I've seen, the mistress is mostly just sex and escape from the drudgery or married and family life. The huge majority of the guys who cheat will NEVER leave their wives for the mistress. Lose their house, their kids and half their money for some other woman? No way.
Funniest/most pathetic thing: "He said that he's going to leave his wife for me". I laugh when I hear that. I also love the endless divorce, where the guy claims an impossibly long divorce (which isn't happening anyway) so he can keep the mistress in her pet-like position for as long as he wants.
The mistress is a fool. She's letting herself be used but will never get "all" of the man's time or heart. The mistress fears real relationships, where she (gasp!) might have to actually have a complete relationship. The mistress (and the guy who cheats) needs to get professional therapeutic help.

I could exceedingly plenty accept as true with BJs answer. adult adult males choose something new and interesting mutually as having the steadiness of a woman at domicile. Marriages so generally after the honeymoon point bypass down hill. Couples start to talk much less and that's the biggest to maximum effective marriages, alongside with a wisdom of the different. while a pair isn't communcating they have not have been given any theory what the different needs. One starts off to sense ignored and starts off to ignore the different one and from there it purely gets worse. each thing interior the marriage turns right into a chore and additionally you're purely going for the duration of the motions. If noone does something to spice it up each now and then it gets uninteresting. I hear greater than a number of cases that the spouse restricts interest all the way down to as quickly as a month. To a lively male that purely won't shrink it. If he's not getting a number of what he desires at domicile he would be searching for it someplace else.

The mistress offers the guy what he seeks-- adoration, no judgment, no strings attached. It's an easy, fun realtionship, but not real, because reality involves conflict.
Mistresses provide an escape, basically.

I never had one, never needed one. I loved my wife. But a mistress to me is someone who interferes with a married couples troubles and brings more trouble to the table so to speak.
