    Most people think that the "other women" are a bad women... no one thinks that these women are humans with feelings that just felt in love with the wrong person , and they are suffering from being the other women too ,thats why the other women have no one to talk to about what they are going through because every one will judj them and tears them apart, so thank you for this conversation ladies , it s ease the heart and put you in the right track its explains everything, and for any woman who will bash other woman for that always remember that shit happens in life and its could be you one day you are just have not been in that situation and circumstances that these women faced

      The other woman in my case knew he was married for over forty years, but chased after him non stop until he relented willingly. She terrorized me, got him drunk and stoned, then would get him so angry at me and send him home to beat me, I with cancer and chemo and loosing my mother. So in my case the other woman was the devil herself. My husband on the other hand was as evil as they come.

      They are bad women because they crossed a line with a married man. The wives are humans with feelings you did not care about so when people have no empathy for the other woman it is the mirror she’s looking into

      ​​@@DeeMBee123you're wrong that we don't care about the wife and her feelings. Most of us feel awful and try to end it over and over. But trust me I feel awful which is why I've never told his wife even when I wanted to because I wanted her to leave him so I could have him I still would not hurt her by telling her. I didn't want to hurt his wife or kids so I just suffered alone in silence.

      @@SusieQ1971 when you found out he was married you continued to do what you wanted. You did not think of the wife. You have low self esteem and decided that being #2 was more important than having empathy and integrity. If you can’t accept that you were part of the problem you will never heal.
      Answer this question - if you didn’t want to hurt the wife then how in the world did you sleep with him in the first place? You think having sex with someone’s husband is acceptable and doesn’t hurt the wife but telling them the truth does? Does that not sound like effed up thinking?
      The saddest thing to me is that you all know that if you told the wife the married man would dump you so fast and tend to the woman he wanted all along. That’s why you don’t tell the wife because you know you’d be faced with the reality that you won’t ever be chosen…. You’ll be settled for. Men show off what they are proud of. They show the car, the house, the wife and family, the job.
      But the other woman is hidden away. Why do you think that is so?

      ​​@@DeeMBee123For someone whos never met me you sure make a lot of assumptions and allegations as to what I feel and am thinking, and none of your comments are helpful they are simply condeming and judgmental. This channel is for helping women like us not condemning them. Women who need help dont seek help because of people like you. When I met him he was filing for divorce, that is what he told me. I didn't purposefully seek out a married man and seduce him. There is far more to the story but I didnt refrain from telling his wife out of fear I would lose him, thats an assumption youre making. I didnt want to destroy his family. He decided to work things out with her and get back with her and dumped me to do so. So telling her would not have caused him to leave me. I contemplated telling her but then felt it would just hurt her and his kids and ruin their lives and I would feel horrible. He has the commitment to her I don't. I never said what we did isnt hurting her. But to this day she knows nothing about it and I couldve taken revenge and told her but cared about not hurting or breaking up a family. He pursued me and led me to believe their marriage was over. Lesson learned Ill never get with a supposedly "separated" man again. I never had before that nor since. But I have had men lie and say they were divorced when they weren't. Women like you are so quick to judge and blame other women rather than blame the man who said the vows to his wife in the first place. Also I never said I wasnt part of the problem. And it wasnt low self esteem that led me into a relationship with a married man. It was the connection we had and the belief he was leaving his wife. He always tries to come back and Ive told him no. But its still very painful since I fell for him. We arent the evil bad people with no morals or integrity. Very few women intentionally set out to destroy marriages or get men to cheat on their partners.

    This video was very helpful, I am actually a gay man who is the "other woman" to a married man, who is still married to his wife. I have never been so in love and yet so destroyed mentally, emotionally and physically from the affair. So many hours spent waiting around, watching over your shoulder, and worse knowing that you can never trust them because the reason they can see you is that they lie all the time. It is truly an addictive relationship, every time I try to leave, he calls me and I end up back in it all over again. The problem I am finding is that he is a good man doing a bad thing, and worse if I leave what would I feel if he moved on and left his wife and ended up with someone else because I couldn't be patient... So yes nothing is ever simple in life

    Sorry to those that are deeply effected by the "actions of the Other Woman". When you're in love, nothing else matters. Falling in love is unexplainable. Have you ever considered maybe, you're bitter that you've never experienced selfless love? . Instead being upset about your past trauma - why not focus on the positives? We all are humans at the end of the day, not God lol.

    Falling in love is a CHOICE. Attraction is natural. You don’t *choose to be attracted to someone. You either are or you aren’t. You make the *choice to take the attraction further. I have no sympathy for any OW (or OM). She is NOT a victim! She took part in the destruction of a marriage and family. He was never hers to begin with! She was bait from the enemy and they both fell for it. I understand that if it wasn’t her, then it would’ve been somebody else. But don’t be a participant. You have that choice!

      I am sorry for that but maybe you should recognize that your father allowed it, even pursued it. She is no victim but he is worse because he had every opportunity to stop it before it escalated by placing more value on his family and vows instead of his pleasure. People who are prone to seek immediate pleasure are not the love types. They just want the image of family and fear being alone.

    One thing about these relationships - the wife likely really knows about the relationship if it is long term. How could you not put 2 and 2 together after years of clues? Many wives look the other way, and do not bring it up, and are in fact are ok with the man having his own extracurricular activities (she may have actually done the same at some point in her life). Such relationships are very common in wealthy families (where the many can easily afford to have more than one woman), yet no one really discusses these things openly.
