Why do single moms date married men

“I’m amazed at how many of my single mom friends date married men.”

A perplexed single mom told us this recently.

“I’m far from being a prude,” she went on. “But I just don’t get it. Why would anyone want to date a married man?”

To be honest, we’re also amazed by how many of our friends get involved with married guys, too. Why?

So, the researchers in us got curious. What is it about married men and single moms? In no way are we advocating being in a relationship with a married man. But we’ve reached out to single moms to get answers. They tell us:

Married men are “convenient.”

It’s is easy to fit these men in between work and parenting. Scheduling time to see each other is tricky. “Scheduling appointments” to see each other sometimes fits right in with the hectic life of a single mom.

The sex is usually fabulous. After all, these guys have plenty of experience. Since they can’t offer much companionship or loyalty, they go all out trying to please in the bedroom.

Mentoring is a bonus perk. Affairs with married men typically begin in the workplace or on business trips. Many single moms have told us that their married lovers are also wonderful mentors, who are interested and supportive of their ambitions and goals.

Married men are always on their best behavior when they are with you. They try to stay clear of career woes, and financial stress, and battles with their ex. They try to look good, smell good and usually spare no expense to show you a good time.

Still is it is all romance and fantasy? Is it really an escape from a single mom responsibility filled daily life?

Of course, there are never any judgments. We believe that only you should make the rules in your own life.

Still, we’re wondering:


How great are the convenience and “perks” when you date a married man?

Or, is dating a married guy the certain path to heart break and unforeseen complications?
