Is it ever ok to steal another girl's guy?
Angelina did it to Jen with Brad, Claire Danes did it to Mary Louise Parker with Billy - they stole their man?
Usually girl meets boy, girl likes boy, hooks up with boy and it's as simple as that! But what happens when he is already taken? Do we break the rules of sisterhood and do the unthinkable or do we simply step aside?
I am the first to be against cheating. I think it's a low act and says a lot of about the self esteem of the cheater! However, I have been caught in a siutation when I did steal another woman's man BUT little did I know he was even in a relationship.
I met Joseph out at a bar one night where his footy club celebrated another win for the season. I knew of him as he was well known around town but didn't know if he was in a relationship or was seeing anyone.
We had a great night together - a few drinks, a dance and at the end of the evening he kissed me good night! That was that!
But a few days later when I was having lunch with a friend, a brunette came up to me and started screaming and swearing at me that I had taken her man!
Well I was quite shocked! I felt ashamed but in my defence I did not know that he had a girlfriend. He didn't talk about her and when I asked if he was seeing anyone he said NO!
But now, I was in her eyes a bimbo, a bitch, a slut - all those lovely things because I was made out to be the man eater!
Here's my thoughts though - it takes two to tango. She should have been really looking at her relationship in that her boyfriend goes out and flirts with other woman and tells them he doesn't have a girlfriend. Is he really in love with her if he does that???
Maybe it's time to cut her loses and move on from someone who clearly doesn't want to be with her?
And for me - well I'll always be the man stealer in her eyes but hey, at least I know I didn't intentionally steal her man!

Another scenario to throw out there for you to consider, say a mate of mine was dating a girl and they broke up and she was interested in me, I wouldnt date her.
I think friends come first. Relationships will come and go but friends are forever.

The worst is how the sharks come out when there's some tension in a relationship. If girl has a fight with her boyfriend, you can bet all the single guys at her school/job are going to start lending a sympathetic ear.
TonyK - you bring up one of my favorite dating sayings that that blokes or chicks come and go, friends are forever! I am glad you have great morals when it comes to dating your mate's exes!
Cibby - you're so right in regards to the shark! Perhaps this is a challenge for some men or women - to see how far they can go before they win the prize?

I recently found myself in a situation similar to yours - kissed a guy who I didnt realise was in a relationship and I was the one at the other end of the bat!
What amazes me even more is that these girls go back to these men and some of them even BEG the men to forgive them for being upset in the first place!
Come on ladies get a life I say, no man is worth you being a carpet for!

I find it really sad that someone with a good spirit would subject themselves to treatment that is so unworthy of them. Wouldn`t it be great if we could make these people see things from our own eyes?
Hope your friends wake up soon before they waste too much time being unappreciated.
