Should You Date A Man Who Is Separated?
Is it understood they are dating other people?
It can be a good idea to A) gather data on whether or not he and his wife have agreed to see other people and B) tread gently if the answer is no. If his wife does not believe they should be dating other people now – perhaps to protect the feelings of their children, or to maintain a reputation in their community – you are navigating choppy waters. It may be emotionally difficult to be with a man who asks you to keep your relationship a secret. That can mean never going out in public together, never posting photos together, and possibly not even telling your friends about the relationship.
