Is it okay to let taken person know you're interested if they were single?

So if you tell her you'd be interested and all goes in your direction and two months from now, she says she's left her man and ready to date you -- do you really want to worry about how easy it is for her to blow off the guy she's committed to when someone else comes along who's interested? Not a good idea.

Is there an appropriate way to let an acquaintance or friend know that you're interested in them if they should ever break up with their SO?

 

In my mind, the answer is no. I can't think of a classy way to do that. Just keep it to yourself until when/if the relationship ends.

 

But I'd like to get other people's thoughts.

 

I think it is really inappropriate, no matter if the couple is in love or not, because it ruins your credibility. Your friend may be open-minded but he/she may also think "I'm committed and this person is hitting on me? What kind of person is that?" Moreover, it makes your friend think that you can't wait for them to break up. Very rude.
