Can married men flirt with other women?

[Melanie31]

I think it's normal for men to cheat. If a man cheats on his wife, the biggest reason is that his wife is inadequate. what do you think

[RedInnocent69]

Married men are often better flirts because they already know how to deal with women.

[LiamS95]

Flirting is not necessarily considered cheating.

[Kaneki05]

On the cheating, I would love to see how you change your mind when a guy cheats on you about been so called 'inadequate'

However on Flirting. I think flirting is a loose term and it's really not hardly defined with some saying compliments are flirting.
There is a line somewhere but typically I don't see flirting as a bad thing without the intension of anything.

[DrPepper12]

I think the exact opposite. If someone cheats its because of, like any crime, means motive and opportunity. Theyre not dissatisfied with their spouse but seeking the novelty, thrill, infatuation, taboo, ego at not getting caught, etc. Nothing at all to do with dissatisfaction

I believe if you're in a committed relationship or you're married, it's definitely wrong to do that. There shouldn't be any flirting of any kind when you're married or in a relationship.

[Finchie40]

They can but he is setting himself up for a divorce

[Brady]

If the wife/girlfriend thinks it OK 2 flirt with other girls it's ok. But the othr woman may not like it if she finds out he's taken. I read men cheat because they're not gettin sex from their girl.

[Jessikaah91]

Definitely not. If they have committed to that person stay committed or if unhappy, leave and divorce.. don't go and chest!

[handsomelad70]

Of course, if it is casual and doesn't become actual desire to, umm, BOND with the other woman.

[Booklover_90]

No and something is wrong with you if you truly believe that. Cheating is always wrong and the cheater is the only one to blame. If a man feels like he can’t be faithful, he should remain single. Period.

[Juxtapose]

I think you're a person of low character if you really think that.

[Sevenpointfive]

it's normal for everyone to cheat. it's who we are. your reason of inadequacy isn't legit. most men would cheat with a less attractive female given the circumstances were right.

[avery58]

Can you make it any more obvious that you're a guy? Lol

[MrGSpotHer]

It's what some do they just want to get with as many probably pleasing none along the way

[spartan55]

Normal for men to cheat? Ha... no don't think so.

You have a good grip.

[Iron_Man]

Nope they can’t

[sirderpsalot123]

They can, but they shouldn't.

[DishLady]

You mean CHEAT? No. That's out of bounds.

[eagle1951]

they can if they want a divorce

[Jennz6]

Hey dude, are you a married man?

[KrakenAttackin]

It is not normal for men to cheat, at all.

[DishLady]

(It's not normal for anyone to cheat at all...)

[KrakenAttackin]

@DishLady Hmmmmm... Franky, I think women cheating has become much more normalized.

[DishLady]

Cheating in general has become normalized... All the "open relationship" and "side piece" convos on here give me such a migraine. Sometimes I feel like no one respects the sanctity of marriage anymore.

[KrakenAttackin]

@DishLady I agree completely. When 80% of women are chasing the same 5% of men, these men plow through women with reckless abandon. Social media has really sent us down a path of self destruction.

[DishLady]

Oh yeah… it certainly has.

[Juxtapose]

@DishLady look at someone who is a millennial I can tell you right now that people my age or younger view marriage as a foolish contracts. As a man if you sign that contract you are willingly entering a union where the woman is fully incentivized to break off from you after 10 years so she can milk you for life with alimony.

Women initiate 80% of divorces. 90% of them if the woman is college educated.

Speech to text typos my bad I'm just waking up.

And also monogamy is not the only way to have a loving relationship but polyamory absolutely needs communication just like any other relationship. No lying.

[DishLady]

@Juxtapose That's partially bc you're the generation that's seen both MY generation and the one before me torn at the hinges by marital strife and to-the-death battles over children and property that both parties tend to end up neglecting anyway. It's horrible... We shoulder the blame for creating such a negative example for you guys and gals 30ish and under.

The one good concept to come out of our nonsense is the prenup -- a guy and a girl can protect themselves and outline what's what from the beginning so there aren't massive battles, traumatized children, etc. etc.

College educated... but they weren't smart enough to avoid the cheating abusive bastards they married... Read the stats on domestic violence and then the divorce stats will make more sense to you. And those are only the REPORTED domestic violence stats...

There's a reason for everything...

[DishLady]

@Juxtapose (No worries for the typos. My stuff is riddled with them... some of them VERY unfortunate/embarrassing ones.)

[Juxtapose]

@DishLady yep, my dad cheated on my mom and then divorced her himself to marry a younger woman. They broke off before they could get married so he broke off of my mom for absolutely nothing. My mom was willing to try and make it work and she bent over backwards for him. She could have made him get dishonorably discharged and took him for everything, which he would have deserved.

Prenuptial agreements can be easily voided by claiming you signed them under duress. Boom, all that preparation is gone.

"Approximately 23.5% of divorces list domestic abuse as a contributing factor."

sacksandsackslaw.com/.../

Meanwhile..

"Seventy-five percent of individuals and couples cited lack of commitment as the reason for their divorce."

I strongly suspect it is because women especially are believed by courts more and they often win custody cases. They are financially incentivized to screw men over and since women get so many suitors regularly they think the grass is greener on the other side and there's always somebody better.

[DishLady]

@Juxtapose I'm sorry that you and your mom went through all that. :(

You're right... which is why mediators/attorneys/etc. are obligated to ask if you've been in any way coerced into signing the prenup. The answer has to be "NO" on both sides for the document to be witnessed, notarized, etc.

We can chat the rest of this out on DM instead of spamming @KrakenAttackin 's question, yes?

[Juxtapose]

@DishLady no it's okay I regularly see controversial comment threads that go on for over 500 replies. If you use this website you should become familiar with "mark all as red" and don't set the website up so it bombards you with notifications when you are not using it. That would be incredibly stupid in my opinion

[Juxtapose]

But anyways..

Thank you for your sympathy and luckily she is with a much better man now.

"Yes, a prenuptial agreement can be voided by duress if one party signed it under pressure or force against their will. Duress can include threats of retaliation or refusal to marry if the other party doesn't sign. While courts generally enforce prenups, they may void all or part of an agreement if duress is proven. However, proving duress can be challenging."

[Juxtapose]

And also the accounts of many, many men show me that having those people there when the prenup is signed really is not enough.

I mean fuck, if I was getting married then I would have refusal to marry if the other party didn't sign so that would be considered duress on my lover's side.

I just don't see the reason why I should get the government involved in my love life. It's not even romantic to get the state involved, it's weird.

[Juxtapose]

I could see it meaning something a bit more if we lived in small tribes and it was a communal celebration. But now? Why? Besides benefits you could use to your advantage why do this?
