    My boyfriend is married, but separated. Is it wrong for me to be in love with him?
    The wife knows who I am and do not cause any drama. My boyfriend is incarcerated and I am holding things down until he comes home. He is talking about marrying me. I want to be happy. He is still married and I love him with all my heart. Am I wrong?

    You mean he is incarcerated, right ? If he is legally separated, yes, you are right to feel the way you do. If he is not legally separated, then, there is a problem.

    It's not wrong to love him if he is in fact legally separated from his wife.

    He needs to be legally separated or divorced before he can honestly talk about marrying you.

    But, if he's still in prison, I'd be taking things VERY slowly.

    It may not be wrong to love a guy who is married, and in jail, but is it wise? Not in my book as he has a lot of baggage to address when he gets out before he can keep his promises.

    Bet you send him money, and take his collect calls to? Really can't say that's wise either, love or not.

    He can get a divorce from jail you know.

    I agree that you may be headed for hurt here, but I don't think it's wrong, especially considering that his ex wife has no problem with it.

    But, how long are they separated? Why? Is it a legal separation? What is your own home situation? Do you have kids? Does he?

    Lil more info and we might be able to help more :)

    It's not wrong to be in love with him, but I would worry about protecting yourself! There are so many red flags in what you just said.

    Incarcerated?
    Married?
    AND he wants to get married already?

    He hasn't even ended his first marriage and already he wants to jump into another one? Is it possible he wants you to take care of him while he does whatever he wants? Honey, just be careful and don't jump into this relationship too soon until you really get to know him. He doesn't sound like very good marriage material and not even love can repair that.

    Dating a Married Cheating Man
    A Fool's Mess

    To all the Ladies dating and having sex with married men, Stop it! Especially the ones who are waiting for that day he will leave his wife. Nothing says a "Dumb ***" like being with another woman's man. You listen to all his Disney-esque fairy tales on how one day he's going to leave his wife. You believe in child-like wonderment that one day he will be all yours. "Who really wants a man like that?" This same cheating man that you love; who cheats on his wife will cheat on you. Actually, he's cheating on you by having sex with his wife. "See how ridiculous this sounds." This cheating married man has you all reserved for dinner for 3 at the" Restaurant of Fools." You are the appetizer and "wifey" is the main meal. " The full course meal" No dessert for you sister, the wife gets that too. The wife gets all the things that marriage entitles her: like the house, car, paycheck and his social security. That leaves you sitting at the table with crumbs at your favorite dinning spot, Le Cheats. After several years of eating "fool a la mode," he finally tells you that he is no longer with his wife. You're so excited thinking he left her for you, but the sad truth is she left him. Why? She was tired of being with a Cheating Man... As they say "you can have the rest."
