What do men really think of their mistresses? I know some fall in love and some just keep it to sex but at the end of the day do they think of them badly (as they are also cheating)!

I don't know, as I've never been married, nor cheated in a committed relationship. However, I would imagine it would be something like, "alright, another woman that i'm having sex with"

I don't think there is an answer to that-everyone is different. My opinion is that cheating is disrespectful of everyone involved.

What a man thinks of his mistress just depends on the person. He can love them like we can all love many people. Or he can be using them just for sex, companionship or a plethora or reasons.

It's a very broad question. At the end of the day what does it matter what someone else thinks ? They're just thoughts of which we all have about 50,000 per day.

What matters is are you enjoying yourself or are you unhappy with the current situation ? (If you're the mistress).

You can't have a mistress without a cheater. How great can the guy be? What's so great about a cheater falling in love with you?

I was married 15 yrs & met this handsome persian guy who swept me off my feet, of course he was married. I had tried multiple times to get pregnant
With my husband, had multiple courses of in vitro unsuccessfully & was getting
Older & desperate. After about a year or so I got pregnant by my cheater.
I miscarried in my 3rd trimester & it was devastating. I realized after the
Miscarriage I had wanted a baby not an affair. I divorced my husband
For unrelated reasons to the affair, Afer 5 yrs of being single, no dating
& just working hard I met a nice guy, re married & had a successful
Pregnancy. 22 yrs later I'm so glad I broke up with this deceitful player,
I realized what a sociopath he was & felt sorry for his wife & kids. I'm
Happy now my son is 21 in college. Life is good!! Motto don't cheat it
Can bring only unhappiness for everyone involved. If he lays down with
You he'll lay down with someone else & cheat on you. He's a dirty dog

I suspect they think if woman is stupid enough to become some married guy's mistress, that he owes her no respect or consideration either.

I didn't mean to agree with you at all. While this is an extremely old question, I just had to ask. You are sitting here calling the guy YOU had an AFFAIR with a deceitful, lying player? A bit hypocritical, don't you think?

At any rate. Old question. Sorry to the OP.
