do you think people who are married or in relationships should be signing up on date sites?

I don't agree with it, but I guess there are certain very trapped and lonely people out there too.

[@Rosey i think they need to move on if they are lonely

@LindaM a family friend had a wife who developed MS. She deteriorated rapidly, yet lived a long time and could only communicate through blinking for the last two years of her sad life. He did escape for a few hours every couple of days with a kind lady and I'd never criticize him for it. Sometimes a few people give so much and do need a bit of love or attention back.

@Rhonda thats a totally different circumstances and noone could blame him.. but im talking about married people whose intentions are from their dinks (men) and they dont care how or who or what as long as they sink the dink...thats my opinion only.. :)

@Rhonda I have a friend who is married and in a monogamous relationship with someone other than her husband. If she leaves her husband most likely he will end up in a nursing home as he isn't able to care for himself. There are people out there in all sorts of unusual situations. Some don't want to leave, some just can't.

@robb65 @robb65 that is another unique situation
Rhonda · F
@LindaM but some situations happens more often than we realise.

@Rhonda you are probably right but from my experience and when i was on a date site...mostly married men contacted me and i know all they wanted from me was sex and because i am single and wanting a relationship that was very upsetting to me...that is not why i was on a dating site...i believe those people whose intentions are strictly for sex need to get lost...

@Rhonda they feel trapped...there is always a way out unless you are shackled to a wall in a dark basement

@Rhonda In my opinion...your friend with a sick wife is a selfish jerk
LindaM · 61-69, F
@Fernie i knew a man who did the same thing but his wife who was dying encouraged it and she was 2 years dying..he was still with his wife till the end
Fernie · F
@LindaM That still does not make it right. Till death do we part. Why is it so impossible for so many men to be loyal...to not put their weenies before loyalty and honoring their vows...THAT is love?
LindaM · 61-69, F
@Fernie thats a really good question but it appears its been happening for a very long time...men are geared that way and i suppose cant help it 🤔
Fernie · F
@LindaM I'm sad that you think that Linda. That lets men off the hook. Plenty of men...married, committed men have evolved far enough to RESIST the urge to wander. They respect themselves and the women they are with. The kind of males, not men, I am talking about will use that same defense when caught cheating...."hey, I'm a guy...can't help it" or the classic "boys will be boys" Nope....they just feel entitled as males. They need to evolve

@Fernie i know but its different now, they dont care so they do it and hurt a whole lot of people...back years ago there were not cell phones or internet and people might have been sneaking about but not like today...today its pathetic and for single people like me who are wanting a relationship, we have to deal with that bs
Fernie · F
@LindaM Much is different now..you are right about that but, men have always been this way BY CHOICE. Yeah, it really suks for sane single people just wanting a nice relationship with a nice person but being met with creeps and liars. Again, where did we go to find people before the internet?
LindaM · 61-69, F
@Fernie i dont look for anyone on the internet..i live my life and whatever happens happens
Fernie · F
@LindaM Wise Woman!
Rhonda · F
@LindaM yes my friend was with her to the end and had 20 years of nothing for himself but looking after her. Many would of put her in care.
