As Stella Cherono aptly puts it, 'the best advice I would give any woman about dating a married man would be; don't even start.'

However, for those who find themselves in such situations, Cherono offers a candid look at what to expect. She warns that a married man will always prioritize his wife and family over his mistress.

Cherono notes that a married man will plan a future with his wife, including building a home, ensuring their properties are insured, and planning for their children's education. Meanwhile, he will be planning weekend getaways with his mistress for the sake of sex.

When the mistress starts exhibiting seriousness in the relationship, Cherono warns that the married man will use this as an excuse to leave. He will consume her time, be possessive, and angry when another man texts her, but ultimately, he will return to his wife.

Cherono also cautions that a married man will control his mistress, barring her from dating and giving her a fake identity to protect his reputation. She also notes that he will never leave his wife and will always taint his wife's name before another woman to win her over.

Published on October 5, 2019, Cherono's article offers a harsh reality check for women considering dating a married man.
