This week's bucket list edition goes out to reader Sara, who writes, "Before I die I want to have sex with a particular married man that I know. I am married as well." You would not believe how many times we've been asked for advice on this topic over the years. Do we look like the kind of advice ladies who want to help you be a cheating ----- ?! We didn't think so. Here's our answer.

Top Ten Tips on Having Sex with a Married Man

1. Don't do it.

2. Unless you're in an open relationship, then first, you must divorce your husband. Remember how you put on that white dress and smushed cake into each other's faces and promised to be true to him through thick and thin? Yeah, that still counts, no matter how much you're lusting after Mr. Hottie-Next-Door.

3. Next, unless this "particular married man" is also in an open relationship (and don't just take his word for it), then he'll need to divorce his wife, too. And don't give us that bullcrap about how you didn't make any promise to his wife. If you have any interest at all in marriage or monogamy--and clearly you do, as you're married, duh--then you need to understand that monogamy is a communal pursuit. We owe it to each other to buttress monogamy where we see it, not attempt to knock it down. People who want to be married and have affairs are worse than cheating ----- s--they're relationship parasites.

4. Bonding with each other about how sick you are of your respective spouses, how you've "grown apart," how you're "basically separated," how you'll "probably divorce" is not the same thing as actually getting a divorce.

5. If divorce is not an option for either of you and you're not already in open relationships, you should each get in one. You may think it's crazy and weird, but we happen to think that lying to your husband is crazy and weird.
