A woman see's a man in a relationship and see's him as a quality 'mate'... someone has deemed him as such so he must be. That its almost instinctual that a woman seek a man that she deems a good protector and provider etc... and if a woman has identified him as such, his stock just went up.
Another thing especially when it comes to girls attracted to their friends boyfriends/husbands is that they always see the man in a romantic role. They see him when he is with his significant other, in front of her friends, so on his 'best behavior'. They see the hand holding, the hugs, the affection and kindess and think 'wow' he must be like that all the time, he's so romantic, etc etc.... they don't see the guy at home in boxers with chip crumbs all over his chest
Men it seems, don't have as much attraction to the idea of a taken woman, since they are more about instinctually looking for someone they can breed up, the less available a woman is for such, the less they are likely naturally drawn to her.
Of course where there is physical attraction that will top the fact the woman is 'taken' in some cases... but as far as a man being attracted to a woman simply because she is off the market... doesn't seem as prevelent as it is with some women.
Thoughts? Opinions?
