ORIGINAL: KatyLied I think if someone is poachable there isn't much a relationship worth saving. While i think it's true that someone can't be wooed away from their current partner by another unless they are already feeling inclined to leave, poaching, in and of itself, isn't based on how solid another person's relationship is or isn't. A poacher can go after anyone, regardless of how stable and secure the relationship of their "prey" is. Poaching is simply illegal hunting and a poacher will hunt anyone they choose, without knowing or caring about the relationship of their object of interest. Poachers will even go after "protected game" (as in someone who is known to be in a relationship.) That doesn't mean that the poacher will be successful in their attempts to capture someone else's partner but, they will still try. There are the men (and women) who will hit on another, even though they are wearing a wedding ring. Poachers don't care. They will hunt who and where they want and hope that they get lucky. There was one BDSM event that i went to with the Dom i was involved with at the time and, while we were standing in the room watching a demonstration, a woman, who neither of us knew, used the walking stick she was holding to lifted up the bottom of my dress. She didn't ask first. She just took it upon herself to "trespass" on another's property. Of course, the man i was with spoke to the host, who promptly dealt with the offender. And, i don't really know what her intent was but, she was definately out of bounds. But, as for the OP, sending someone an email isn't poaching. And, getting emails should be expected when you have a profile on this site, even if it clearly states that you are in a relationship and not looking. Anyone can look at your profile and choose to send you an email. Whether you choose to read it, answer it, delete it or, whatever is up to you. That's how i look at it, anyway. joy Owned servant of Master David
