Women, Trust & Relationships: Understanding Confidence, Boundaries, and Loyalty”
Title: “Women, Trust & Relationships: Understanding Confidence, Boundaries, and Loyalty” Exploring how women perceive trust, attraction, and connection in relationships — especially in the presence of other women. 1. Trust & Attractive Friends Q: Do you trust other women around your partner (friends, sisters, coworkers)? Why or why not? Follow-up: Are there types of relationships with women (close friends vs. acquaintances) where trust feels easier or harder? How do you personally define trust in these situations? 2. Confidence Around Attractive Women Q: On a scale from 1–10, how confident do you feel as a woman when you are around other attractive women? Follow-up: What makes you feel more confident? What situations make your confidence drop? 3. Attractiveness & Intimidation Q: Does an attractive woman ever intimidate you — whether you’re with your partner or not? Why or why not? Follow-up: What feelings come up for you in those moments (e.g., comparison, insecurity, reassurance)? 4. Relationship Status & Availability Q: If a man is legally married but separated and hasn’t lived with his spouse for years, do you consider him “available”? Why or why not? Context: Research on emotional/relational availability often emphasizes both legal status and real commitment behavior — not just paperwork. 5. Experiences With Betrayal Q: Have you ever experienced another woman flirting with or pursuing your partner? If yes, how did it affect you and your relationship? Follow-up: What did you learn from that experience? 6. Risks of Dating Married Men Q: Do you believe it is risky to date a married man? Why or why not? Bonus: What do you think are the chances a married man will leave his spouse for another woman? (Research shows mixed outcomes — some studies suggest only a minority of married partners in affairs actually separate/divorce for the third party, depending on circumstances. If you want, I can pull specific percentages from research.)
