I'm not the subject of this topic....

However, I was having a discussion with my friend today about dating a married man.

He has been complaining about his wife for over a year, he intends on leaving her (from what he has said) in the next few months. Is he dateable, after he leaves said wife? Meaning as soon as he leaves.....

We debated on this, and I hope I didn't infer my side, because I really want to know what other people think about it....Just for reference.

The better question would be, would HE be ready to date right away?

Long as he is moved out, so there is a def. seperation. Both of age, make your own decision.
It all really comes down to personal standards & integrity. I have dated ladies still married, but seperated.

I prefer not dating anyone unless they have divorce papers....if they reconcile...you will be stuck in the middle of everything they go through...stuck by that same rule during my divorce, no dating til it's done....just my opinionbigsmile flowerforyou

dating someone immediately upon their leaving a relationship is a bad idea on so many levels. Especially if they were married. Aren't you just going to be the rebound girl anyway?

no...if he is looking for a replacement before he actually gets out...he can't be trusted from the get go....he will be looking to replace said friend in the same manner if something goes wrong....

He has his cake now, and he is eating it. If he leaves his wife, why wouldnt he explore what his options are besides your friend. He knows what he has already. He will feel so free, why would he want to be tied down again? Run Forest:banana: RUN

Technically he would still be married, I don't date married men. He'd have to get a divorce first and then we could date.

At the end of any long term serious relationship/marriage, each party needs time to find out who they are outside of that relationship. We all have a need to feel desirable so all to often people jump into a relationship only to find they are not ready thus causing hurt feelings for the other party.

He has made his intent with her apparent for some time now, she has always been very upfront with her thoughts on him being married, but does like him. He is not leaving for her, but wants her when he does.

He is not cheating, nothing has transpired at all yet. She is def. not manipulating him, and even if she was... if he's that weak minded he deserves to be a pawn...

Wow, everyone thinks the worst of these two people...trust me if one of them had a bad intent I wouldn't even care what anyone else's opinion was.....

No he doesn't just want to get laid.... No she isn't the reason he's leaving his wife.

I have been in this situation though I actually was the other woman.I will tell you once the wife was out of the picture and we got married his whole attitude changed and I found out why the wife was only too eager to get rid of him.
I would let him go thru the whole divorce process then start dating to see how things go.I definitely would not jump into a relationship with him right away.I wish your friend good luck.
