8 Things Married Men Should Do Around Single Ladies
It’s no news that single ladies go after other women’s husband. It’s happening everywhere, not only in the lives of young married men but also in the life of men old enough to be the single lady’s father.
The pressure from single ladies is more if you’re good looking, handsome and very rich.
The single ladies will say, all the good men are all taken.
These men end up falling in love with these ladies, abandoning their wives and responsibilities to their families.
Some of the men don’t plan for this to happen but it happens. It all starts little by little and they feel they are in charge and can stop the affair with the single lady at any time. But before they know it, they are deep into the relationship and can’t back out.
Why would a single (or even attached) woman chase after a married man when she knows that he has a wife. Maybe, it's because these women love a challenge, the drama involved, no strings attached, or simply the thrill of sin. It might even be due to lack of contentment, like they say the food on someone else's plate always looks (and sometimes tastes) better than what you're having.
