I am a single lady with two children. How do I tell a maried man that I am not interested in forming a relationship with him. I know a relationship like this will not get me anywhere because I know that it is not true love that they want from me. It is just lust, to put it blankly.

Dear marian,

I don't mean to raise your hopes falsely, but if you feel that this married man also feels attracted to you, it may not be as bleek a picture as you paint. For many reasons those people we thought would be life partners end up with difficulties unresolvable. Your interest and his returned interest may be a result of the difficulties of which I speak. You may well be chasing something you cannot fully have, but then again there are instances where marriages are suffering and the differences resolvable. It may be true love that ends up between you two. The only way you'll ever know is to let him know how you feel and be prepared for whatever answer you get.

I wish you love, Mia
