MARRIAGE is the death of hope," Woody Allen once said. But not for everyone. In New York, where eligible men are few and far between, single women who endure long stretches of unwilled celibacy may resort to cheating with someone else's husband because it seems like the only hope - consequences be damned.
In December, I slept with a married man - late 50s, attractive, smart and successful. He's been with his wife forever, a lifestyle to which he is completely wedded, one that I had no intention of jeopardizing. Any guilt I might have felt was further assuaged by the fact that the man already had a roguish reputation. Since it had been two months that I'd gone without any skin-to-skin contact and I was too impatient to go through another round of dating rigmarole - the dinners, the chitchat, the sizing each other up - I reached out to him.
It was mid-afternoon when we met for a late lunch at a forgettable sushi place near 42nd Street. Since we weren't on a traditional "date," there was no need to conceal our vulnerabilities in order to make a good first impression. I was relaxed, and enjoyed being open with and appreciated by a man without even having to try.
Afterward, he put his arm around me and steered me to West 45th Street to Hotel QT, a sense of furtiveness lending a sexy dangerousness to our imminent entwinement. Entering the room, we anxiously pulled off our clothes, tearing back the bedcovers.
Last spring, a Time-CNN poll determined that while 90 percent of Americans say adultery is wrong, some type of infidelity occurs within half of all marriages. The reasons why seem obvious enough: boredom, loneliness, anger and, in cases when bedroom activities have simply died out,

BS!
Why do these sluts have to advertise that they are lying cheaters that are not to be trusted?
People who screw around with a cheater deserve to get cheated on.
This girl is a pig. The husband worse.
Because they're proud of it.
Is this a news story or therapy for a desperate slut?
In other words, "I'm a slut."
Care to answer? ;-)
Yep,
Nothing hotter than someone who doesn't keep their promises, lies to their family and loved ones and thinks only of themselves...../snark.
I guess married men are pre-qualified in a sense - "Ted Bundy Syndrome" is off the table. They are seen as safe, experienced, and discreet...what more could a single girl ask for? LOL!
I have SOOOOO many jokes here...
After having read the excerpt, I have to agree.
I'm early 40's, attractive, smart, successful, and unmarried.
Sleep with me.
She's going to be a regular at Heidi Fleiss's Las vegas meathouse...
Frankly, this author is what used to be called a 'tramp,' and, with her 'modern, enlightened' attitude, I am not at all surprised she finds herself unable to stick with a relationship and must go poaching other women's men.
A FOX, caught in a trap, escaped by tearing off his brushy tail.Borrowed from http://www.circumstitions.com/Fox.htmlAfter that, the other animals mocked him, making him feel so ashamed that his life was a burden to him. He therefore worked out a plan to make all the other foxes the same as him, so that in their common loss he might better conceal his own deprivation.
He called a meeting of foxes. A good many came to it, and he gave a speech, advising them all to cut off their tails. He said that they would not only look much better without them, but that they would get rid of the weight of the brush, which was a very great inconvenience.
But one of them interrupted his speech.
"If you had not lost your own tail, my friend," that fox said, "you would not be giving us this advice."
Okay, she's easy and he's a skunk - a lucky skunk ;-)
