dont think you should if your married, i mean go to a singles site and start making friends. If you have already made friends like here at cs, then that would be ok. JMO, i know sounds hyprocritical

I think every person is different but I don know that when I WAS married I did come on sites similar to this only looking for friends and conversation. My intentions were pure.

Some marriadges are empty of words and conversations. Lonely


Even more i belive it might improve marriadge

it is possible ( but the fact of being married has to be on Profile in order to avoid calamity)

I am not disagreeing that intentions are "pure"...but what is at the root of that?...

If someone is "content" in their marriage...would they really be seeking out "online" friends??dunno

Well...what people forget is I am VERY SHY in person. I don't have many friends offline at all. My marriage was stable, and I was content but wanted other outlets of conversation.

Morning Urs...

Good question, I think everyones different..For me no I wouldnt be here if I were married. HOWEVER if I had been here and then found my match and got married I would probably still log on to stay in touch with everyone.. Hopefully my husband would understand that Ive made great friends here and dont want to lose touch..

Hmmm in some cases yes - i think everyone needs a distraction and someone to talk to , however on a different site there was a man who had his status as married n under description he wrote 'my circumstance is now changed n i am able to have a discreet fling'
so wrong!

If one is married they should not be in here.But again i'm very much against that.Married people can get tempted even if their intentions are good.But what can i say?Who am i to judge?

I agree with you, Marina.....

Some married people become like roommates before the divorce finally happens.

Profiles should tell the truth....married, separated...just looking for friends.. handshake

I can't really say what the intentions would be of a person who is married and on an online dating site.dunno

Personally, if I were married, I would not go to an online dating site to "just make friends". In fact, if I were married, I wouldn't go to an online dating site at all. And if I did feel the need to seek out friends on the net while being married, again, it wouldn't be on a dating site, and I would be honest about my marital status right from the get go.

grin

cheers

I don't know about it improving a marriage but if someone does, yes I agree, they should be honest and make it clear they are married (sadly I was not given this respect). Having said that, knowing they are married and just intending to be friends does not mean that, at some point down the line, you won't fall for them. Its best not to go there in the first place!

No problem if your spouse is okay with it and you trust yourself and your spouse trust you. Not okay if it is an excuse for checking out who's out there because of marital dissatisfaction...a lot of people lie to themselves and their spouse about this.
