These are just a few common reasons why women choose to be mistresses and although it’s with fair motives behind, the truth is, women are far more valuable and worth more than all these reasons- even the ones not highlighted. No woman deserves to be an option which can be discarded if priorities are met. Women should understand that the ephemeral pleasures they might have from trading themselves are of no benefit when they come to an end. There will be no value added to their stature but instead personal fulfilment and growth will be deprived of them. By placing yourself as an option in a relationship, you are allowing the other person to milk out the good in you. These men will eventually have enough of you and will return to their wives while you are left with a scar. Moreover, he has made no commitment to you. Can you dispute then, that there are no number threes on the list? In other words, he is making it a sight for a sore eye that he just wants to take you for a ride. He’ll make you try hard to be his number one, to be loved and feel noticed while there could be a better man out there whom you wouldn’t have to beg for love. Cut that relationship if you know for sure that you are a side dish and own your worth!
