I was walking passed a music store a few years ago, and I heard a song being played. The chorus of the song said "Married men get lonely too, what a married man to do, when he's lonely?" I was startled by the words of this song that I heard (being played) in the music store; which caused me to ask you these questions. Do you think that married men get lonely too? What should these men do, when they are lonely?

Yes a married person can be lonely just like a single person. We all have feelings and needs. And in some instance a married person's need love, and companionship isn't always met.It is a important thing to talk with a person's spouse if they feel lonely. And try to spend time with friends and family who can give them companionship that they need. They can also spend time in activities and pursuits that really interest them.

If I would take the title itself literally then I would say YES of course they are. But case to case basis, some are valid and some are just lame especially if they are the pervert type of man. There are man who are not contented with only one woman so they could be really lonely if they can't be able to mingle with other women around especially for a fact that they are already married. But if their wives are not good then I really find it valid for them to be that lonely. If they are also having long distance relationship with their wives then of course they can be lonely too.

I like your comments. However, do you think that persons can confuse being alone with being lonely?

In my assumption I believe everyone gets lonely once in a while, be man or ladies alike. As a married man, i sure get lonely some times but not in way that is resulting to polygamy.. it is a lot of help, getting rid of that loneliness when i logged in to mylot.

May I ask you a question? I is good that you have admitted that periodically, you do get lonely. However, in those moments (of being lonely) could you summarize what caused you to be in that state of loneliness?

I hope my husband is not lonely. Otherwise, whats the point of us being married? With us having each other we do not feel lonely. I know he doesn't feel lonely. If any married men feel lonely maybe their not married to their soulmate... Just a thought.

Given what you said about your relationship with your husband, I am happy to be told that you can state categorically that your husband is not lonely. Keep on doing what you do, ok? Best wishes.

maybe because when men are married, all they'll think will be their family's survival..and we all know it's hard to raise a family especially when you're the man of the house..

in my personal view when married man gets lonely the temptation will then play. man gets lonely when they could feel that there is no spark anymore in their relationship. when his partner forgets her responsibilities as a wife to his partner.
