People Prone To Emotional Affairs
May 16th, 2008 by hlgilesMost who go through the motions of a dying marriage are the ones that most often have emotional affairs. They are lacking something in their marriage, so they get it somewhere else. Even the strongest people need love and reassurance, and if they aren’t getting it at home, they are going to get it somewhere else. Most emotional affairs start out as simply friendship, but they grow rapidly into something else. Even worse, most don’t know what they are doing until it blows up in their face.
No matter what is going on at home, emotional affairs are still wrong. They can be just as painful as a sexual affair because someone is giving their intimate feelings and affections to someone else. The sense of betrayal is still the same. Those that have them tell themselves they are not doing anything wrong simply because they are not having sex with the other person. If left going on long enough, most emotional affairs will lead to sex anyway. It’s only a matter of time.
