For a variety of reasons that drive single women crazy, many men find married women ridiculously attractive, but they don't know how to pick up married women. Most men are used to picking up single women, and married women–especially those with kids, a mortgage, a job, and a conscience–are very different beasts. Here are a few tips to help you learn how to pick up married women.

  1. Let them vent about their husbands. Happily married women don't cheat. If you want to pick up married women, you're going to have to endure listening to a certain amount of husband bashing. Listen and offer sympathetic noises, but don't pile on. If you start attacking her husband, you put her in the position of having to defend him, which may make her feel bad for talking to you in the first place.
  2. Steer her away from the subject of her children. If you're trying to pick up married women, the last thing you want is for them to start thinking about their children and begin to worry that by being with you they'll be hurting them.
  3. Show her a good time. If she's open to your flirtation, it probably means that she's bored and unhappy in her marriage and starved for a little fun in her life. Don't take her to the theater. Take her to an arcade, a circus, a paint ball range, or anywhere else you can think of that will make her feel young and carefree again.
  4. Don't make her think about the future. Just because she's with you doesn't mean she doesn't love her husband. If you make her think about the future, and what being with you might do to her marriage in the future, she'll scurry on home to her boring, but dependable and comfortable, husband.

Learning how to pick up married women is very different than learning how to pick up single women. If you employ the same tactics, you're bound to fail. Picking up single women is about making them think you may have a future together, but picking up married women is about making them forget everything but the present.
