Being The 'Other Woman'

February 25, 2010 1:52pm CST
Following the revelations of Tiger Woods, Ashley Cole and John Terry over recent weeks, I was wondering how many people would agree to be the 'other woman' knowing full well that the man they were getting involved with was married. I know in the world of celebrity that the 'other women' knew that these famous men were already married, but what about in the real world? Would you enter into a relationship with a man or woman knowing that he or she were married?

I think there are lot of women who do this and I feel sorry for them because they have a pathetic life that they would have to make other people's lives miserable because they are. Women should be decent enough to think that they should not be the "other woman". Its a not a very good thing to hear with our own two ears that a woman is home wrecker. Its absolutely not right and women like these do not have morale values.

Nice view point. I suppose some women may actually chase a married man on puropse, is that what you are suggesting here?

it's not acceptable since it deviates from the norms we are used to. but it happens, for reasons we cannot exactly define - and some of the explanations being given, we find it still unreasonable. -some do it for the money -some do it for love -some do it because they were caught in the middle and couldn't go out ...some find it exciting experience rather than the usual type of relationship. -some say the "other woman" is more loved than the "real woman" ....i will do it for love - but i will never get into such relationship. LOL!

I don't think I ever could. No matter what the situation between the man and his wife was I couldn't do that to someone. I can't even imagine what it would feel like to be the wife and I could never be involved in hurting someone like that. In the Tiger Woods scandal I imagine those women were pretty blinded by his celebrity, that could definitely make it easier for some women to exercise poor judgement.

if im that girl then no i will not knowing tiger wood is very well know personality and rich. though we cant blame some specially if they're in needs of money it their life anyway. as for me, there too many guys out there billions of them nd tiger wood is not the only well know nor rich person on earth there might be others too and yet very much single. and if its all about love then we cant blame them, as love really goes to anyone, you can just feel it even if you dont like the idea of loving the person. thats why love become so selfish sometimes.

people who enters in a relationship knowing that the other person is married is either they really love that person OR she/he is afraid of commitment.
