Dating Married Men – Is This A Vicious Cycle?

iStock 000004530092XSmall 200x300 Dating Married Men   Is This A Vicious Cycle?Why do some women in spite of apparently having everything – money, a good job and an independent lifestyle – often choose to enter into the dark recesses of a relationship with a married man? It does not take a relationship expert to make you realize that a relationship between married men and single women is not the most emotionally fulfilling attachment that you can have. Such relationships are full of potential pitfalls and heartbreaks. So why do some women opt to date men who are, technically speaking, committed for life?

Most women, who knowingly enters into a relationship with a married man, do so because they are afraid of commitment. They feel that by dating a man who is married, they can enjoy the benefits of a no strings attached relationship, without the complications of a full-blown relationship. However, ironically, relationships such as these bring in more complications than other “normal” relationships.

So, if you are a single women who does not want a committed relationship and if you are about to get into a relationship with a married man,  ponder seriously over this - why intentionally bring in a man who has a full family to take care of? Isn’t it better to find another single man who is looking for a relationship sans the commitment? 

Though dating married men may sound like a cakewalk to you at first, are you certain that you can enter into the relationship without seriously involving your feelings and emotions? After all, you began dating this person because something must have attracted you to him. Therefore, what happens if this attraction shapes ups into something more substantial for you? There is no way that you can have a happy relationship with a married man. There is no win-win situation here. And so, you have been advised.

Even, if you feel this as a reason not enough, and think that you can easily have a fling with a married man, think about the damage that you might cause to his family. When you meet the man from time to time, you have to take care that none of his family members find out about the two of you. Sneaking around like teenagers. Is this something that you want to put yourself through? In addition, there might be times when you would like to go out on a date with this man. However, his priority would be his family and as such, he might not be able to concede to your plans and demands. Do you still feel that it is worth it to arrange your schedule around him? The truth is you would be better off with a single man who can give you his time and attention whenever you need it.

Thus, when all this is said and done, you need to introspect on the reasons you want to date a married man. If it is because you are afraid of commitment, then you can easily find single men who would be more than willing to enter into a non-committed relationship. On the other hand if  you’re looking for some fun and excitement  and because the sense of danger attached to such relationships, excite you, go for a vacation in the African jungles or lets say bungee jumping! For you need to remember that dating a married man can be emotionally taxing, dysfunctional and this can leave you with emotional scars that just might stay with you forever.
