why do single women tend to seduce married men all the time?
I know a few married guys who were seduced by single women.

Your buddy Dave has been single for three years and thinks "hey u up" is a valid strategy. Your other buddy Mike just got dumped and told you to "just be yourself."
You showed them her text. You asked them to decode the emoji. You drafted four responses and sent the screenshot to the group chat for a vote.
She's been waiting forty minutes.
Put the phone down. Stop crowdsourcing your love life. Type something that sounds like you. Hit send. Then go do literally anything else with your evening.
You made your case like a lawyer. Stable job. Good guy. Ready for something real. All true. All irrelevant.
She weighed your points, nodded along, felt nothing — then fell hard for some tattooed bartender with a motorcycle and a gambling problem.
Logic is where attraction goes to die. The "22 Rules" work a level deeper, on the subconscious switches that decide within minutes whether you register as a MAN or as part of the furniture.
Stop presenting evidence. Start flipping switches.
The opposite is also true: the guy could be taken BECAUSE he's more desireable and valuable.FairShake said:Being taken makes a man more desirable. It gives him some value
Dinner ran three hours. She laughed at everything. You walked her to her car thinking this one's locked in.
Then: nothing. Two texts. No reply. What happened?
You did what most men do on a great date. You filled every silence, answered every question, and left her with nothing to wonder about. No mystery. Nothing to sit with when she got home.
Rule 3 of the "22 Rules" changes the ending: tell her a little, hold back the rest, and let her imagination do the chasing. The ghosting stops too.
The boss is the alpha male of the group. Sometimes called the "Situational Alpha" because he is the alpha in that situation. And we know women have a tendency to go for the leader.check out the proportion of Women who have slept with their boss.
I agree with you of course, but I should point out that if you have one steady girlfriend the effect is the same: you know who you are fvcking that night.This dynamic is exactly why I advocate Plate Theory. A guy with a rotation of 2-3 reliable girls isn't going to care about how a 4th girl responds to his Alpha confidence, not matter how shocking, because he knows who he's ƒucking that night.

You asked her if she wanted to grab coffee. Then you asked if the time worked. Then you asked if the place was okay. Then you asked if she'd prefer tea.
Four questions. Four chances for her to say no. Four signals that you're terrified of making a decision.
Plan it. Pick the place. Pick the time. Tell her where to meet you. She'll either show up or she won't.
Either way, you look like a man instead of a scared little boy.
The problem is that MANY married cheaters do JUST THAT.Mike32ct said:5. Since he's taken, she can have finally have discreet no strings sex. He has every reason to keep things quiet and most of all, he won't turn into a Stage 4 clinger (i.e. turn really needy) like some single guys after they get laid.
Excellent analysis!Mike32ct said:It's a combination of things.
1. People who are "taken" are usually very confident around the opposite sex because they usually aren't trying to pick someone up. So a married guy is a breath of fresh air to her compared to the all the nervous horny single guys trying desperately to get into her pants. This is attractive.
2. If a woman was willing to marry (and presumably have sex with him), then he must have something going for him. This gives him value.
3. He must have some experience with women and sex.
4. It's taboo. The idea of her being attractive enough to get a married guy to cheat turns her on.
5. Since he's taken, she can have finally have discreet no strings sex. He has every reason to keep things quiet and most of all, he won't turn into a Stage 4 clinger (i.e. turn really needy) like some single guys after they get laid.
6. A married guy is probably a much lower STD risk (than a random bar guy) since he has presumably been in a monogamous relationship for a while. So she'll probably raw dog him.
There's one more angle I'd add that relates to your #5. That angle is power.Mike32ct said:5. Since he's taken, she can have finally have discreet no strings sex.

She calls you when her car breaks down. When she needs help moving. When some guy she's actually dating treats her badly.
You're the listener. The reliable one. The guy who would treat her so much better, if she'd just open her eyes.
She won't. You trained her to see you as the low-effort option — the friend who requires zero risk and zero investment. Every favor dug the hole deeper.
The "22 Rules" break the pattern. You'll stop auditioning for a role she already cast and become the man she chases instead. It starts with Rule 1.
You're from Australia? Hell, for all we know, that may be true over there. Different continents definitely equal different cultures.jophil28 said:I absolutely disagree that single women fuk married men "all the time".
Most single women I know would studiously avoid hitting on a married man even though she might be attracted to him. I have seen a few women go for some mild flirting but it usually stops there.
Just because his "indifference" may push her buttons does not mean that she will act on her feelings.
Another urban myth in my opinion

Attraction runs on a clock.
She flirted for weeks. Touched your arm. Found reasons to be alone with you. And you were careful. Respectful. Waiting for the right moment.
The moment had a shelf life. It expired around month two, and by the time you asked her out, she'd quietly filed you under "little brother."
One of the hardest lessons inside the 22 Rules: women rarely wait. Interest either grows or it decays, and nothing decays it faster than a man who never moves.
Make the move while she's still inventing reasons to be near you.
