Have you ever been that girl who was being faithful to a man that haven’t committed to you? If not, you at least had that one friend who was in a one sided committed relationship with a man that made it clear they were not together, or with a man who was already in a “committed relationship” with another woman. However, why and how is it that we as women sometimes end up in these twisted circumstances? Based on an example from my own experience, I remember walking past a guy I was dating while he was with his girlfriend and he did not even give me eye contact or recognize my presence. To make matters worst there were people around that knew of the relationship that me and this gentleman shared. I heard some of these people laugh and snickle at the shamed look on my face and I swore never again would I put myself in such a compromising situation. With that being said, there are still women who are being humiliated and left to wallow in shame as they attempt to bandage there self-inflicted emotional wounds. They are consistently ending up in these unfortunate situations.
Whatever the case maybe, my question is why do some women feel the need to be FAITHFUL to a man who is already with someone, or who has made it clear that he is not looking to be in a relationship? Especially, after you have already experienced the end result of side chick status or giving a man your undeniable all who refuses to even consider commitment. Simultaneously, I have noticed that a lot of men expect this role to be played by most women. Some men can’t handle that while you are dating them you may have other suitors that you are getting to know as well. Why do some women find it invigorating to be faithful to a man they are not in a relationship with? Why are some men uncomfortable with women dating other men at the same time they are dating other women or perhaps in a relationship?
