Never date your ex lover that is married.

Pat and Dave had been dating for quite a while, they love each other passionately. He was the love of her life. Everyone was waiting for the time they will make up their mind to tie the knot, they would have if not for the news of impregnating another lady (Shade) that Dave told her. According to him, the lady lured him to bed, and since she carried his baby there was a need for him to call the relationship quite since he will not want to have a child that will not have the care and love of both parents. Pat felt betrayed: few weeks later Dave got married to her (Shade).

A year later looking miserable, Dave came calling on Pat on his kneels seeking for her forgiveness and professing his love and letting her know that he made a terrible mistake getting married to Shade. He promised that he was going to call the marriage quite; Pat because she loved him decided to give him another chance since he said he will soon divorce his wife. It is over three years and Dave still keeps giving excuses why he hadn’t yet left his wife and presently she is carrying another pregnancy.

I guess you are familiar with this story; if you look around you, you’ll find singles that are in this trap. They didn’t follow the path of wisdom- stay away from married men/women.

As a single, do not fall into the trap of dating your former intimate friend who is now married. The lie that will be told by the person is, “The person that I married was a mistake, I should have married you, I still love you.” Do not fall for these words, if the person had made a mistake of marrying someone else, let him/her live with it, even if he/she married your best friend. Wisdom demands that you don’t go into relationship that will waste your time and in the end cause pain to you as a single.

Never forget that no one likes to share his or her spouse with another, you too will not like it if you are on the receiving end. Wisdom demands that you know that if a person is unfaithful to his/her partner; that person isn’t trustworthy and will do the same to you, if he/she eventually gets married to you.

King Solomon said, “But a man who does the sin of adultery is foolish. He is destroying himself-he himself causes his own destruction!” Proverbs 6:32.
