It's different when you're actually married to the person. Marriage is a commitment, something you don't back out of easily. Dating is casual. The very purpose is that it's not serious and you can leave if it doesn't work. Marriage is supposed to work and last. And they may be afraid of the consequences of leaving a wife.

it's not just financial... when there are kids involved a man knows he will have to give up significant time with his children if he gets divorced. Basically, he's going to get screwed without getting laid. When he's dating if it ain't workin' he can just bail out.

Because even though they may not be happy, they really do love their wives.... they just lie to their mistresses and other potential sex partners to get what they want and are playing a dangerous game.

I think everyone here has the "right" answer--that is, it's a combination of things. Dating is fleeting. When you're married to someone, there is an entire life wrapped up in that, not just one thing or another. It's hard to walk away from that, even if one person is unhappy. You question how long the unhappiness will last, is it just a phase, etc. because all relationships do have ups and downs. When you have a history, a *life* with someone, it's really difficult to dismiss that easily.

RaidenAzreal is right. Marriage is just a financial tie and if they leave their wives, they'll be left with a big financial problem.
