"honesty from the start and if you have a meet or a lady contacts you then at least she is aware. As regards being called for doing this I think it shows the honesty of the guy. we have our reasons for being on here as do a lot of lady looking for BBC they to have there reasons." But you're lying to your wife, so by definition honesty can't be that important to you. Why do you care about being honest with strangers. Not having a go, by the way, just trying to understand. | |||

"Why pick on the men for this? There are plenty married women on here that are cheating. We always want people to be honest about it. Doesn't matter to us if they are married or not. " Probably since the site has a massive male majority. I presume most are married without their partners knowledge. | |||

"whether I am lying to my wife or not that is between us and my conscience. can I just add why the guys always get it in the neck all the time, there are plenty of married ladies on this site that put it in there profile and are not vindicated for it. Have you ever thought that I or we may be staying together for the sake of the kids and don't want to split up or move house with all the disruption that goes with it, keep the kids settled but still have sex life with someone else." Like I said, I am not having a go, just trying to understand. You may have very good reasons for lying to your wife, but the fact is you are lying. It follows from that you are willing to lie to someone very close to you in order to get what you want. - maintaining your marriage and having sex on the side. Given that, I struggle to see why you don't lie to strangers on here to make it more likely you will get what you want. I just don't understand. | |||

They are just shooting themselves in the foot. | |||

"By doing so they are giving the other person the choice whether they want to engage in cheating, if guys or ladies don't state it, they are tricking the other person and that's not cool. I get the argument that by lying to the other half is a bit hypocritical but as said by others, we all have our own reasons for being here. " But what I don't understand is why anyone should feel an obligation to be truthful to strangers when they don't feel an obligation to be truthful with their partners. | |||

"Because some women actually prefer to meet married men for various reasons. The guys who get the grief are often those who complain and justify, blame their partner or are aggressive about the people who choose not to meet them. Some of the most popular men on fab are here without their partners knowledge, mention it on their profile but don't discuss it on the forum." Perhaps. But I don't think anyone can seriously suggest that being an openly attached man dramatically reduces your chances on here. | |||

"If I am shooting myself in the foot then so be it, but I would prefer to start in level ground if I did meet off this site. It save a lot of pain in the end. I wish you would stop using the word lying. What the eye don't see the heart done bleed #justsaying" But that last sentence could equally apply to people on here if you lie to them. And what's wrong with the word "lying"? That's what you're doing isn't it.? | |||

There are way more threads from men who describe themselves as single complaining that they don't get meets than from men who declare their marital status. This leads me to believe that overall it has little effect. I know it's not a scientific study but it's all I have | |||

"OK....Married men may be lying cheats but some of their accusers could do well to look at it from another angle....Do they lie about swinging to their children and parents?? I suspect they do! In, which case are they a bit like pot calling kettle etc...Being non judgmental is not easy....." I’m very open with my family, I prefer honesty all round full stop. I try not to judge but will not meet attached men unless their partner is part of the fun. | |||

If the status is clear from the outset it avoids drama and possible bad experiences ‘down the line’ if and when the people you meet find out (if they’re ‘anti-cheater’).

If you say you are VWE or gym fit, but it turns out you aren’t, then any meetings you have will just go tits up and be a car crash! | |||

"I think it's possible to be honest with one person and not another, is it not? Just because someone lies to one person does not make them a dishonest person... if that were the case I think nobody would be able to claim to be honest. Anyway I'm answer to the OP I would suggest that those guys and ladies (see what I did there?) who choose to disclose their marital status do so because they would like to be honest with those they are intending to chat to and meet. It makes things simpler and gives the other person the choice wether to get involved or not. " Fair enough, but for most of us, it's more important to be honest to those close to us than random strangers. The married persons wife has no choice as to whether she wants to be married to someone who has sex with other people. Why should he care about strangers having a choice? | |||

I agree, if you are looking for a long term thing, it's probably best to be honest. If you just want a short term casual shag, it's best to lie | |||

As a man without a female partner on here, the odds are dramatically against you, by saying you are married you have made them even worse, and 2. Presumably, given you are deceiving your wife, you have no moral issues per se re lying about your sex life. Why care about lying to strangers when you are lying to your wife? I am genuinely interested in the psychology of this as I can't see it... " Ive saw hundreds of posts from so called single guys complaining they cant get a meet so id say in general the guys who are married are probably just tge same as those claiming to be single | |||

" Neither is the case for me - I'm married and the male half of a swinging couple - we both have a singles profile each and a couple profile. Nobody is cheating and we play with the consent of each other. As such, I'd sooner be honest about it that deceive people - why would I want to play with people who would not normally want to play with me if they knew the truth? There's plenty to go around! | |||

"That's a good question actually,thankfully some men are upfront on their profile which I respect." Thank you. That's why it's there. Honesty is ironic as mentioned by others. Some people don't get the position I and others are in and it would take a lot of words to explain. Personally, I don't get couples seeking other people to join them in their sex life. Not judging anyone as I've never tried it and not saying I wouldn't, just don't get it is all. | |||

I have had affairs and at times have left my partner for the person I'm having an affair with, making the lover the new partner. The relationship soon fails. In my long life I have realised I am a serial cheat HOWEVER I have always been faithful to my lovers while they are lovers. My secret life is my real life and once it is no longer a secret I need a new secret. | |||

"Everyone on this site has had a different journey to get here and different reasons for being here. So I won’t judge anyone until I’ve walked in their shoes and understand their context for being here. In my opinion it’s rarely ‘black and white’ why some people find themselves cheating, for some it may have been a long complex journey to get to this point. Anyway, many cheaters do take the option the OP alludes to which is to say nothing about their marital status. Others opt to be up front (I won’t use the word ‘honest’ given the obvious hypocrisy that the OP has mentioned) so that people can make an informed choice before agreeing to meet anyone. And as another response said, it’s far from only men cheating on here. There are plenty of ladies in the same boat, many of them “forum famous”. It tends to be the men that get the rougher ride though! " | |||

"There's no point in lying about it, in my opinion. By the time I can't accommodate, I mention discretion and can only meet during the working day it's pretty obvious. I appreciate that others on the site can choose whether they meet married folk or not. It's just another parameter of choice such as age or race. " Those are fair points. It's logical that if you think you will pretty speedily get found out that it's best not to lie. | |||
