reader, anonymous, writes (6 August 2012): Because it is really easy to entice a married man that has a dead sex life with his wife. Guys are eager to sleep with someone that can fulfill their sexual needs. It is exciting and usually a challange to see if a guy will take that leap and sleep with you.
A married man will usually stay with their wife and have a little piece on the side because he has the best of both worlds. The female ends up hurt and wanting more out of the relationship usually. It's really a dead end.

 Once had a co-worker friend - nothing sexual but close - who maintained a relationship with a married man for years. I was appalled. It eventually ended, but I once asked why she did that. She responded that it was sex without commitment, but he also paid her rent. In that case, it was prostitution.

 Because they can. And because "dating" a married man is "easier" then dating one who doesn't have a wife at home, to wash his dirty sock, fold his laundry, cook him dinners, clean the house, take care of the kids..........
They lack morals. Same as the married men they cheat with.

 One of my friends was desperate for male attention. Why do married men look outside their marriage for hookups? Don't they have free will too?

 I suppose there are many reasons.

I think part of the reason is some women find it more exciting to take something another woman has, like she is "winning," or something to that effect.
In the end though, it comes down to what was said below - "bad judgement."

 One of my closest friends hooked up with a married man (against my very strong objections and pleading) because she bought into his story that leaving his wife would cause her health and mental problems. They had worked together until he revealed a deep attraction toward her. She hadn't even thought about being with him, but his attentions lavished on her were intoxicating, and she eventually developed feelings for him.
It wasn't long before her demands for a more substantial relationship caused him to flake out on her, not to mention when his wife became suspicious of them, he told her that he could never be attracted to someone such as my friend. That was a real eye opener for her.
She finally got weary of his getting sex with no strings attached. He still tries to seduce her though. You have no idea how much I wanted to call his wife and tell her what was going on. I very nearly ended my friendship with her, but figured patience was the best course of action.
