Women like to 'poach' attached men
so its official..In a phenomenon known as 'mate poaching' – but soon to be dubbed the 'Angelina Jolie effect' – women expressed a clear preference for those who were unavailable.
Researchers Dr Melissa Burkley and Jessica Parker found that 90 per cent of women questioned were interested in a man when told he was in a relationship, compared to 59 per cent when told the same man was single.
"This finding indicates that single women are considerably more interested in pursuing a man who is less available to them."
They postulated: "This may be because a man who is attached has already shown his ability to commit and, in a sense, has been pre-screened by another woman."

Rohaan I love your comments!
I think that men who are in relationship (and maybe women too) seem more desirable because they give off a different vibe. There is maybe more confidence there because they are not "looking for anything". Or maybe because the man has been with a woman for awhile, they emit a softer energy? I don't know...
