A woman, usually with average sexual market value (SMV), who sleeps with a high sexual market value male , a/k/a the alpha male, who does not wish to have a long-term relationship with the woman. The woman views the alpha male as superior to most, if not all, of the other
men pursuing her, and so the woman continues to
lust after the alpha male she cannot have, sacrificing
future long-term relationships with lower-SMV
men, making her a "widow", in a sense, to the original alpha male.
Jane could never seem to get over her one
true love, Rocco, even after she was married to
John. Jane must be an
alpha widow.
