Same reason MANY men are attracted to married women. As a matter of fact, I feel like my ring is a man magnet when I'm out at a bar with my friends.
Many of these people enjoy the no-string, no commitment sexual relationship. Also married people will fuck your brains out. Many of them are not getting enough of it at home, so when they get the opportunity it is pretty intense. As a woman married 16 years I can assure you, if I had sex outside of my marriage, I'd fuck like it was my last day on earth. |
Does he have kids?

I think you are lying to yourself when you say you know there is no future here. You hope for a future with him. You are hoping he will leave his family for you. |
And you have a wedding planned... NOT! |
I think married men are into married women, but single men are not--at least not as much as single women are into married men. I think it's mostly a status thing. A married man has more status than an unmarried man. Also, after a certain age, single men tend to be scrunitized as "there must be something wrong is he's still single." A married man is deemed to have been vetted and has a track record. |
I am genuinely curious - how do these single women approach you? In what context? It's hard to imagine - I never once considered hitting on a married man when I was single. |
Maybe in the D.C. area married men have disposable income they can use to attract single women. In most other cities, married middle aged men have no left over money, and they would be lucky to find another married woman to commiserate with and have sex with outside of their miserable marriages. I doubt that 20% of single women would want your sorry married behind and your bills and your bratty kids and your crazy ex wife. |
My experience is that it is both single and married men. I have a single friend I go out with sometimes and often it is guys coming up to me more than her. I'm convinced it's the ring. |
Yes, yes, DC is sooo unique and special.

I wrote the PP - I should mention that single women approaching me is relatively rare, maybe a couple times a month? It adds up. It is usually in a professional setting. Could be a conference and we are in a group working on a project and you get an invite to go have a drink after. Or you are out with clients and run into the secretary from another floor that approaches you and while tipsy makes some confession about you. I also get approached on guys night out from time to time, but most women do change from flirtatious to friendly once they see the ring. |
It is. DC is the most affluent and educated large city on the planet. |
I suppose if you assume that women has no sex drive, never get lonely and the only reason they approach any man is with the intention of getting pregnant and breaking up a family home, then you would be on to something. On the other hand, it's also very possible women have desires, chemical attractions and urges like everyone does, and they aren't thinking of the ramifications of just having an innocent cocktail at the bar with the handsome and wealthy but married man that is giving them attention. For what it's worth, I am not condoning cheating, etc. but to imply that only evil stone hearted manipulative people engage in this stuff is not anywhere close to accurate. |

| If their wives didn't want them, why would single women want them? |
| my sil is like this. can't stand her. i think she likes the attention, feeling wanted, and gets a rush over being deemed more desirable than gf, wife, fiance etc. |
