3 Reasons Certain Women Chase After Married Men

Most women would probably admit that at some point in their
lives, they have been attracted to someone who is already
married, but, they would never think of trying to do anything to
lure the man away from his wife.
However, for some women, they only seek out married and
committed men to have a relationship with.
So, why do women mate poach? There are several perceived
benefits including the excitement of an affair, the feeling of being
"chosen" over someone else, being lavished with expensive gifts
and the feelings of power and control because there is no
commitment on the part of the "poacher."
Although some of these women say they don't need a man, most
desire a committed relationship. There are three reasons that may
contribute to a woman engaging in mate poaching:
1. Low self-esteem. Women with low self-esteem have a belief that
they are not good enough to be "the wife." Sometimes, they have
been abused or mistreated in a relationship. Therefore, their
defense mechanism against being hurt again is to seek
relationships they know will not be a committed one. The woman
may also relate her self worth to her appearance, so she will feel
good about herself when she can successfully "catch" a married
man.
2. Sex addiction. For women who are sex addicts, mate poaching
is a behavior they want to stop doing. However, they are unable to
stop without help through therapy. There are several factors that
contribute to a women becoming a sex addict, including
childhood sexual abuse. Sex addicts may feel guilty and ashamed,
but will continue Mate Poaching even after suffering bad
consequences.
3. Power and control. Some women will say they mate poach
because they like being the "one in control" of the relationship.
They can "leave it anytime they want" and there are no "strings
attached." The truth is that when a person must feel like they are
in control of a relationship, it is usually because they have a fear of
abandonment or commitment.
