Does every man here agree? If you are married, you should NEVER be with another woman? Even if, for the purpose of argument, it never interferes with your relationship? Or that IF you have found THE WOMAN, you will not have a desire to be with any other woman. I'm NOT trying to be a pig, I'm just trying to understand this primal feeling at an important crossroads in my life.

You made a typo there good sir. I think it should read: "I'm not trying to be a pig".

Ive been married for 2 years, gonna be 3 in february. Our baby is due at the end of december. I still love my wife the same as I did when I met her. Yes I am "aware" of all the hotties out there. But its a good thing to not look too longingly at other women. Besides, I dont think Id ever find someone who is a better match for myself than her. Even when we have disagreements I think of how stupid it would be not having an alternate opinion and her agreeing with me on every subject.
But.....
if your not comfortable with it than dont do it. Period.

Umm where do i start First - doesn't really matter how long you are dating and how long you are living together. I'm married for 3 years, have a daughter of 2 years old and i'm happy with how everything's going so far. I decided to marry my wife after 2 months of dating her and we lived 3 months before the actual marriage. If you think this is crazy - you have no idea. The reason why i could do so and why it worked - is that: - i was really ready to start up the family - my lady was really ready to start a family with ME - it is important to be open and discuss in advance your opinion on the adult life like children, parents, travelling, job career, place of living etc... - in the end if this is the right person for you - you are totally fine
i play sc:bw since 2000, got married in 2008, now play sc2 when i feel like playing, sometimes like 30 games in a row with total responsibility for my home and my little daughter.
Cheers.

In reality, it all depends upon what you and your wife agree to do. If sex outside of the marriage is acceptable and openly acknowledged as such beforehand, then it's ok. Just make sure that you and your wife have a frank and open discussion about it so that the groundrules are clearly set.
That said, I will say this: open relationships are more prone to breaking down because of the stress that is placed upon the trust component of the relationship. If you plan on having children, its gets even more complicated and difficult. I'd recommend keeping it monogamous, but it's up to you.

I guess vows mean absolutely shit here in the states. Divorce rate is above 50%, is it not? 
People who cheat on their spouses are nothing but scum. If you are going to cheat, why the fuck get married in the first place? You just don't have the decency and morals to tell your spouse you are unhappy. Scum.

I guess I'll switch this around and ask what it is that is keeping you with her? I seems rather obvious to me that you shouldn't marry her. Why not just break up with her and start banging all the chicks you can instead of wondering? Not that it's what I'd do, but just because I can tell you that your marriage will be a lie so might as well drop the pretense and just do what you REALLY want.

Umm, yeah, it's not conducive to a healthy family. You can't claim that it will never be discovered. If you're stupid enough to cheat on someone you've made a life-long commitment to, you're stupid enough to leave evidence and get caught. And if you really care about them, the guilt will tear you up inside.
I never understood people's propensity for cheating. Aren't we all 100% completely aware of how our testosterone level controls our sexual behaviour? Just walk away and crack one off like the rest of us. Jesus.
There's no shame in masturbation, even if you're in a committed relationship. It's just an itch that needs scratching. Nothing more.

Look I am not a religious person myself, but do you find how often people use Jesus' name for no apparent reason? For me, it just reflects your moral values when using such blasphemous language.

People's propensity for cheating is the same propensity that allows their credit card bills to run up to the point that they are in life long debt because of interest, Impusivity. They do, then think about it later. It also doesn't help that our primordial instincts for males is to have sex with just about every woman we can get our hands on. The fact of the matter is that someone who cheats is going to leave evidence because cheating is an impulsive thing much more so than a planned event. The only type of planned cheating is usually by someone who wants to be caught anyways or exact revenge in both cases its meant to be transparent anyways.

Uh, it's less of a "getting caught" issue, and more of an ethical issue. I'm sure I could steal money from old ladies and they'd never know about it, and hey they'd probably never even miss it! So why not?
That's right, it's unethical. Downright scumbag-ish in fact. How can you possibly want to commit an (arguably worse) slight against a girl you supposedly love, all the while justifying it with a "what she doesn't know won't hurt her!" attitude? Mind boggling :p

and she will find out

The very fact you think you could screw around, keep it from your wife, and your relationship would be unaffected demonstrates that you don't have a fucking clue what a relationship worth marrying for actually is.

Well I shall add my 2 cents.
First of all, I am young (ish) 18 years old 19 in 19 days.
I have been in a relationship for just over a year now with a girl whose ideal life would be to get married and have children and be a kept woman, basically.
I personally do not believe in marriage anymore. My own mother being my primary reason and I will not say anymore on the subject as I think it would be a little off topic.
However, the way I see it, as was said in one of the first posts. If you two REALLY love one another, why should you need to get married?
The reasons women HONESTLY want it is obvious to me at least now in my infinite wisdom of nearly 19 years of age
They don't like being shown up by their friends and if you are married they consider it a one up.
Also they like a big engagement ring, I cannot recall the amount of times I have seen women comparing theirs to my mothers. It is another one up. (Here is the point where I realise it leaves a bitter taste to call her that)
They want "THE WEDDING" the white dress, the church (even if they aren't religious), the vows (which mean nothing to them most of the time after the ceremony. Has anyone here actually ever seen a married woman who has vowed "to honour and obey" actually agree that they still want to obey their life partner/husband? Perhaps not) This is a big party centralised around THEM and another one up.
I think you will find it is from a woman's point of view a status symbol, like many other things (designer clothes? < perhaps a bad example I hope my point comes across) do they really NEED these things? No they just want to show that they are in some ways better than their "friends".
Also women like to say it would make me "more secure". I believe this shows the vindictive nature of people. What these women are really saying is "I can fuck him financially if he dare upset me" and I will NOT accept anyone disagreeing with the fact that women in court especially divorce courts are favoured. In England we have no prenuptial agreements and I know that EVERY man who has been divorced that I have come across has far less than half of what it is he started with.
I will make this seem less scorned young child taking it out with some research to back it up.
"to be happy you need to think yourself better off than those around you." It is a phenomenon called 'relative comparisons'.
I know this to be a fact because you can watch endless movies/tv shows whatever of people personifying the feelings of a single woman jealous of all her married friends, but no I am not going to list them.
On the other hand I also agree that there are those women (99.999% of which are now over 50) who believe what they are saying when they say "till death do us part" and they are the ones to look out for, but then again they will be the ones who if you explain your worries to will never push you into it to start with.
tl/dr : Women are jealous and vindictive, watch out.

How can you possibly want to commit an (arguably worse) slight against a girl you supposedly love, all the while justifying it with a "what she doesn't know won't hurt her!" attitude? Mind boggling :p Really is it that bad? I'll be brutally honest. Why will I do it? Sex, and the Conquest! Do I feel bad about it? No. Damn, maybe I was not brought up correctly. But I'm still convinced this is not an anomaly, especially among men. Deep inside everyone wants to do it, and they only restrain it due to certain social expectations and consequences to the relationship.
I don't buy this "love" drama/thing. If I love the woman I'm going to be having sex with outside marriage, then perhaps I should marry her. But no. It's just a mere transgression. An itch.
On the bigger picture, do married men tell this themselves like "Ok I will get married now and will do it with no one else other than my wife" and commit to it, or does it come naturally with the decision to get marries?

My attitude is that if someone is going to get offended at my usage of a slang term for incredulity, it says a lot more about their sensitivity than my insensitivity. What does one more person getting offended at something utterly trivial and banal in the world mean to me? Get over yourself. Your opinion means as much to me, as mine does to you.
