Why is it completely acceptable and even encouraged in our Western world to tell a woman who has a boyfriend or a husband that you have feelings for her? Whenever I like a woman but realizes she has someone already then I completely close the door on trying to get with her unless or until she finds herself being single. I see this in movies, TV shows, IRL with friends and all over our current society.

Why do it? Why attempt to home wreck? There's a very low chance she'll leave her dude for you. And even if she does some how leave her man for you, what makes you think she won't leave you for another person? Would you like it if someone tries to holler at your woman?

Because some people may want to leave a relationship. Still a bit scummy, but its not too big a deal as long as they leave the other person before any kind of relationship commences. Actively cheating on someone who believes they are in a committed relationship is the horrible part.

No this isn't acceptable no matter what, don't justify this behavior

-In western society, she has the agency to decline propositions from someone interested in her (the right to say "no")
-it's not entirely unacceptable for women to also admit interest in attached men. This is also commonly demonstrated in media (ie: movies of romantic conflict)

I suppose a more genuine question is why you would be surprised that is the case considering it's a trend that has been going on for centuries and is still fairly common in modern human societies.

I dunno. Maybe her bf freaks out when I talk to her and that makes her decide she'd rather be with someone who has less insecurities.
