Have you ever considered dating a married man? Well close to fifteen percent of married women have affairs. That is around 45 million American women who would be interested in living a ‘bit on the side’. Here are some of the pros and cons of dating married men.
It’s New & Exciting!
Many women claim that the best sex they have ever had was with a married man. The woman is interested in having an affair it is usually because she wants sex or better sex than she is currently getting.
She isn’t likely to be looking for love or romance. A married woman having an affair is only committed to the affair in a sexual way and not in an emotional way, which will usually result in great sex!
The Adrenaline Rush Someone Might Find Out
There is a certain amount of excitement when having an affair due to the secrecy element. When you meet the man you will do so in a place where you won’t be seen.
You might meet at a motel during your lunch break or even sneak away for a naughty weekend. The excitement of meeting in secret and not getting caught will add excitement to the relationship.
More Fun and Less Serious
Dating single men can often result in the woman wanting something more from the relationship than the man does.
When you are dating married women, the woman is already committed to her husband and will not expect you to get involved in the more serious details of her life.

The Cons of Dating a Married Man
- Her husband may find out about the affair. If her husband discovers that his wife is having an affair, anything can happen.
- His reaction may be mild and he may just insist that the affair end. He may react more harshly and insist on divorce because of her infidelity.
- The guy becomes bitterly jealous.
- Start having feelings for him.
You could end up heartbroken for a man that you cannot have.
Take into consideration the moral aspect of having an affair. If you fall in love with this man and he does leave her family for you, you could be breaking up her family.
Even though the affair may start off casual, it can become more serious which can have disastrous effects on his family, in particular, if he has children.
True Love or True Lies?
