This is possibly true. Some do but realize they're getting nowhere. ANSWER: It depends on each individual, there are some married woman who leaves her family to be with the other man.

Some women will have affairs with men because she may have no children and she is hoping he will marry her and she'll have a ready-made family. Some women feel having an affair with a married man is a safe bet for her (she may be a gold digger or non committal.) Then there is a percentage of women who just want the excitement of knowing they can steal a husband away from his wife and children are involved. A woman who cheats with a married man is self centered; ego maniacal and has no scruples as to the hurt it will cause the wife and the children.

In some cases yes, a married man can manipulate; seduce or influence a married woman so she will fall in love with him. Women who generally fall into this category feel the lack of self confidence; they may be unhappy in their marriage for one reason or another such as neglect by their husband or perhaps verbal or physical abuse; yet some women are in love with love while others simply like the risk of adventure by having an extra marital affair. These women are targets for married men who enjoy having affairs with one or more women and are often into controlling women and some men dislike women without knowing it and enjoy toying and hurting the woman.
Not all married men cheat on their wives. Some married men will have affairs (sometimes starting in their 40's) when they feel their looks and youth is slipping away at a rapid pace and they want to feel that magic feeling of a younger woman being interested in them again. There are some men that do have affairs with married women.Often men that prefer single women it is because those women are younger and the man is trying to regain his youth and enjoys the excitement. This makes the single young woman his mistress if they are sexually active and there is a very low percentage that he will ever marry her and is using her strictly for a sexual relationship. These types of men want their cake and eat it too; they want their wife by their side, but want some excitement in their lives and a change of pace sexually. It is also more common than some people realize that both married men and women can have a sexual relationship fully knowing that neither of them will divorce their mates.
