Anger and love are two relatives that never go to the same family reunion.

They are emotions which inspire the best you feel and drag out the the worst you feel.

Love doesn’t even qualify as an emotion all by itself if you base the definition on researcher Robert Plutchik’s basic list. Plutchik defines love as a combination of two emotions – joy and trust.

That’s why when a partner is having an emotional affair, it feels so awful. Your love, your joy, your trust are all betrayed.

The first response some people have to the damaging effects of emotional affairs is:

“But there’s no sex.”

Sex is not love. It may express love, but deep down sex can and does happen sometimes just for the sake of… sex.

That’s why when partners who have been cheated upon are asked what hurts most about a spouse or lover’s affair, they say…

The Deception

Studies have shown that both men and women who have been deceived by a partner feel more hurt over the SECRET than the SEX.

About 70 percent of women, slightly more than men, say sexual infidelity is more forgivable than emotional unfaithfulness. A partner who has a strong attachment to a third-party weakens the bond in the first relationship, sometimes to the breaking point.

The Danger

For those who feel that an emotional attachment between two people is not enough to label it an affair, consider that giving one’s body can be as temporary a gift as the giver wants it to be.

With emotions, it’s difficult to even know where friendship ends and deeper feelings begin. Being emotionally close is a risky and usually longer investment. Backing away from that investment is much more difficult than zipping a fly.

Sexual attraction is a part of an emotional affair, even if it is never acted upon. The truth is the stronger that attraction is, the more likely it will move from fantasy to reality.

Over-the-Line Friendships

More gender-balanced workplaces and online social networking sites make intimate relationships easier to have…and hide. How far a person takes the relationship – a colleague, a chat buddy – is a matter of choice.

So, how do you know that a friendship, virtual or real, has crossed the trust boundaries of a marriage or other committed relationship?

Cheating Signs in Emotional Affairs

a. Verbal intimacy

The lover or spouse that moves outside a first relationship to confide to a third-party is breaking the privacy bonds of a primary relationship.

It’s one thing to say “I’m having a rough time at home right now” to a colleague and quite another to reveal “My husband isn’t very satisfying in bed.”

A partner who gripes about a first relationship with someone who is not part of it should be talking with a counselor or a lawyer. Better yet, that partner should be trying to work out the problem at home instead of sympathy and solutions beyond it.

b. Time Out

A partner who gradually extends a work day or a solo computer session might be letting a spouse or lover know that they’d rather be with someone else.

Time itself is a key factor in determining how vested beyond a promised relationship a partner may be.

When a spouse or lover would rather, in their hearts, be away, it’s a sign of one who will stray or one who already has.

c. Sexual Short Circuit

Something is off in the bedroom and none of it is pleasant.

A partner who declines the opportunity for sex repeatedly or seems distance and mechanical may mentally be elsewhere. If that elsewhere is an emotional tie to a third person, the symptoms will increase.

On occasion, the opposite occurs. A regular sex life suddenly becomes unusually vibrant. It may seem like a partner is taking the initiative to improve or shake up life in the bedroom, but it can be a sign that they’ve been fantasizing about having new sex with a new person and may be ready to practice those physical moves soon.

d. The Eyes

The secrecy and deception that is part of every kind of affair lives in the eyes. Partners who try to hide deep feelings for someone else will betray themselves with body language.

- Averting a spouse’s gaze

- Turning away from a lover

- Failing to show affection and warmth

- Creating verbal and physical distance

Often a partner engaged in an emotional affair is at war inside. Feelings are so consuming beyond a marriage or other relationship that there’s a double guilt – guilt about betraying a spouse and confusion about betraying a third person. A cheater is caught between duty and unexpressed feelings.

The End and The Beginning

Emotional affairs don’t last, but what happens with them can go one of two ways. Something happens to either stop what’s happening between two people or the relationship propels forward into a physical relationship.

One survey reported that people guilty of affairs online never started out looking for an affair. Maybe consciously they weren’t, but in almost half the cases, that innocent beginning turned into a physical affair.

The combination of an emotional affair that turns into a physical one can be the most devastating of all.

If you suspect that your partner has a relationship that has passed the stage of friendship, it’s time to act and ask some hard questions. They are difficult questions because the answers you might get may not be the ones you want to hear.

That makes them even more important to ask them.

How do you approach your partner?

What words can you say?

How do you know if the emotional affair is real?

What will you do if they admit it… or, worse yet, don’t recognize or acknowledge the relationship as an affair?

What To Do If Your Partner Is Having An Affair?

Time To Act: Enough is enough.

Stop being the victim, stop living in self-denial, stop living in pain, stop living in agony and stop living in self-pity.

Be bold and take the first step in confronting the truth even if the truth is ugly and not what you want to know.

Now is the time for you to act. Whether you want to confirm your fears or catch your partner or spouse cheating on you with evidence, I can help you.

I often hear from panicked wives whose husband has just announced that he wants a separation. Since my blog is about saving marriages and avoiding divorce, the wives that I hear from are strongly opposed to allowing the separation to actually take place.

Many ask me what they can do in response to their husband’s insistence that they separate. I heard from a wife who said: “my husband and I have been struggling with our marriage for about four months. He lost his job and is now underemployed. We’ve had to change our lifestyle and this has caused a lot of stress. All along, he’s made it clear that he doesn’t think I’ve been supportive enough. I’ve tried to be, but it’s been hard on me and the kids not knowing if we’ll be able to keep our house or stay in the same school district. Because of all the worry and the fighting, our marriage took a hit. I admit and take responsibility for my part in that. But I don’t think that this should have to mean the end of my marriage. Last night, he told me that we should separate. He said he’d been looking at rooms to rent. I don’t know what he’s thinking because we can barely afford our own house, let alone another room. So now not only do I have to worry about my marriage, but I must worry about how I’ll survive financially on my own should he move forward with a separation and eventually a divorce. What can I do right now when I absolutely do not want a separation?”

Before I answer this question, I have to tell you that I am definitely not an attorney. I could not and did not advice the wife on any legal issues. She was not even sure if her husband was talking about a legal separation or just meant moving out of the house for a while. But, I could offer her some tips on how to act and respond to make the separation either less likely or shorter lived. I will share that with you now.

Find Out What He’s Really Wanting To Accomplish (Or Escape) Through The Separation: The wife wasn’t sure what the husband’s main criteria for wanting the separation truly was. She wasn’t sure if he was just trying to escape the fighting, didn’t want the pressure of listening to his family’s worries, or was trying to get back at or punish the wife for her perceived lack of support.

I felt that it would be worthwhile to try to determine the root cause of this. Because if she could determine what her husband was trying to escape, and she could then successfully address or solve this issue, she might avoid the separation all together.

For example, if the husband was sick of the fighting, she might vow that they both communicate better to avoid the hurtful fights. She could take the initiative for counseling or at least find some way to help or educating herself on how to offer more support.

Or, if her husband was responding to low self esteem and trying to escape his family’s worries because his underemployment made him feel terrible about himself, she might spend some time building him up and stressing how they still had each other, which is what really mattered. The key here is to try to ease the tension and lighten the load without making it appear that you are only doing this because you don’t want for him to leave or to pursue the separation.

Offering Alternatives To An Actual Marital Or Trial Separation: If the wife tried the above suggestions and the husband still wasn’t receptive, she might offer to give him his own space in their home. If he wasn’t receptive to a separation with him still living at home, then she herself could offer to go and stay with family for a little while so her husband could sort some things out without having to pay for a room in someone else’s house.

I know that leaving your home probably doesn’t sound all that great, but doing so is better than letting him leave and then worrying about whether he will ever come back. If you are the one who leaves, you can control the duration of the separation (at least initially) because you can simply attempt to come home when you think the time is right.

When Nothing Works And Your Husband Insists That You Can Accept A Separation Or Be Served With Divorce Papers: Sometimes, you try to make every compromise and you patiently try to reason with your husband and he just isn’t having any of it. For whatever reason, he’s just not going to be happy until you agree to the separation. (This was the case with me.)  Some husbands will even go so far as to tell you that you can chose between a separation or a divorce.

When this happens, there comes a point where it’s better to stop trying to fight him. Once he’s made it clear that he’s not going to change his mind and the separation is absolutely going to happen, then you need to stop trying to prevent the separation and start setting up a reconciliation.

What I mean by this is that there comes a time when it’s clear that you can’t stop him from moving out or from pursuing a separation, so you are better off being agreeable so that you can continue to have access to him during the separation.

At this point, your focus becomes improving your relationship while you are apart. Because if you can ensure that he has positive memories of you while he is gone and he knows that you are trying to help him through his struggles, he will think of you favorably and want to see more of you. This make a reconciliation much more likely and this access will allow you to slowly begin to rebuild your relationship with an eye on rebuilding your marriage. Because the worst thing that you can do is to have him leave in a huff and then to spend your separation fighting so that things never get better, and that eventually, things will get so bad that he pursues a divorce.

Instead, you want to make sure that things are as pleasant as they can possibly be so that when he comes to see the kids are wants to interact with you, things just continue to get better and better until you are both receptive to saving your marriage and ending the separation.

Unfortunately, I did not understand these principles when my own husband insisted on a separation. This made getting back together much more difficult. We did eventually save our marriage but not until I completely abandoned my old ineffective strategy and came up with a new one. If it helps, you can read about what actually worked on the saving my marriage blog.

I often hear from couples for which trust is a huge issue. Usually, I hear from more wives than husbands on this topic but it’s clear that a trust is a large issue in many struggling marriages. Sometimes, the person writing has valid reasons to have trust issues. And other times, they are reacting from past relationships which have nothing to do with the trustworthiness of their spouse.

I heard from a wife on my save my marriage blog who said: “I always feel like I can’t really trust my husband. He always tells little white lies and he hides little things. When I call him on it, he says that he gets so sick of feeling like I’m always trying to trip him up. He says I act like his mother rather than his wife. He says my nature is just to be suspicious and that no matter how he acts, I will find a reason not to trust him. I admit that my first husband cheated on me and so I am always suspicious of my husband. But honestly, if I wouldn’t catch him in lies, then I could back off a little. But every time I find out about his little untruths, it makes me feel like I need to watch him even more closely. This is really hurting my marriage. My husband has started avoiding me and calling me a nag. I don’t want to let my suspicions ruin my marriage. But I can’t help having them when I catch him in lies. I feel like if things don’t change, our marriage is just not going to make it. What can or should I do?”

This wasn’t an easy situation for either spouse. The wife had already been damaged by a man who wasn’t trustworthy. So she was overly sensitive to any untruth. And the husband resented this. But I strongly felt that there was a compromise that was possible, which I’ll discuss now.

Never Underestimate The Importance Of Trust In Your Marriage, Even If Your Spouse Doesn’t Get It: The wife sometimes felt guilty about placing such a huge emphasis on trust. But there was no need to apologize for this. Trust is vital in any important relationship, but it is essential to a healthy marriage.

You may try to tell yourself that you’re being too sensitive or that complete trust really doesn’t matter. But, deep in your heart, even when you try your best to turn a blind eye, you will likely always have those nagging feelings that never let you rest. That’s why it’s so important to come up with a compromise with which you can both be comfortable. I know it’s hurtful to have your spouse paint you as a nag, but the importance of trust shouldn’t be underestimated. And, if it’s important to you, it should also be important to your spouse.

Balancing Your Need For The Absolute Truth With His Need For Breathing Room: A huge problem that the wife faced was that every time she brought up trust issues because of her husband’s little white lies, he would pretty much mutter “here we go again” and just start to tune her out. He would then paint her as a paranoid nag, which would make her wonder what he was hiding.

It was important to break this cycle. my suggestion would be that the next time the wife caught the husband in an untruth, she might say something like: “honey, what you’re telling me just isn’t true. I’m not sure why you feel the need to hide things from me or to not tell me everything, but complete truth is so important to me and to our marriage that I’m going to ask you to commit to working on this with me. I know that part of the reason that you are so secretive is because of my own suspicious nature. And, I take full responsibility for that and I am committing to being more aware of it. At the same time, I don’t think I would be as suspicious if I knew that you were telling me the truth about even the little, seemingly unimportant things. Can I count on you to try to do better? I realize that my past is affecting our marriage. But I think if I could count of you to always tell me the truth, this side of me would not be as pronounced because it wouldn’t need to be.”

What Happens If You Put Your Cards On The Table And You Still Feel That You Can’t Trust Him?: The wife said she would try this approach, but she didn’t have a lot of faith that it was going to work. She said it was just part of her husband’s personality to always lie, even about tiny little things like what he had for lunch. This always made her think that he was trying to hide other, larger things.

If this is the case and none of your efforts work, then I would suggest counseling or at the very least for the wife to try to uncover what underlying issues might be contributing to the husband’s need to lie. Was there an underlying major problem between them that made him feel as if he needed to hide things from his wife? Did he have intimacy issues which contributed to him feeling as though he had to keep things to himself? Did he resent his wife’s suspicious nature and therefore lied in a passive aggressive attempt to punish her? These are just some possibilities. But sometimes, if the underlying issues aren’t solved, the husband will keep right on lying simply because he’s acting out of something rather than a lack of honesty.

No matter what was the cause of this lack of trust, it was important that the couple address it. Because continuing to distrust your spouse leads to resentment, doubt, and unhappiness. And that is no way to live your life and to conduct your marriage.

Trust was just one of the issues that I brushed under the rug when my husband and I were having problems and it came back to haunt me. If I had it to do over again, I would have dealt with this issue much earlier. I was able to save my marriage, but not without a lot of heartache and turmoil. Dealing with a small problem before it becomes a huge problem is always the way to go.

I often hear from wives who strongly suspect that their husband is very unhappy within their marriage and therefore likely wants a separation or divorce. This is very often the elephant in the room that the wife is very afraid to even address. The wife usually very much wants to know what he’s thinking, but at the same time, she is terrified to know the truth.

I recently heard from a wife who said: “for the last couple of years, my husband has become increasingly withdrawn in our marriage. It’s obvious that he’s unhappy and he admits as much. He’s very open about the fact that he thinks our marriage has changed. And he doesn’t find these changes to be positive ones. But instead of going to counseling or trying to change anything, he just wanders around and draws attention to himself and his own sullenness. At this point, I feel like just asking him if he wants out of our marriage because I’m sick of tiptoeing around him. But I’m afraid of the answer he might give me, because despite his sour personality, I want to save my marriage. So what is the best thing to do? Should I continue to ignore the obvious so that my husband and I both remain miserable? Or do I gather up my courage and just ask him if he wants out?” I’ll try to answer these questions in the following article.

One Answer To One Question Isn’t Likely To End Your Marriage. But The Feelings Behind That Same Answer Just Might: People seem to have the mistaken perception that if you never speak of or ignore a problem that same problem is just going to go away. This is usually not what happens. Instead, because you are not addressing the problem, it just gets worse and worse.

I’m not sure why people think that if you don’t speak of your marital problems, then they you won’t have to address them because hopefully, they will go away. Even if the wife never mentioned her marital problems to her husband, nothing said that he was never going to take any action. He might have been planning to bring up the topic on his own or announce that he wanted a separation or divorce in the very near future. Not bringing up the topic or refusing to ask the question was no guarantee that the husband was never going to act on his unhappiness.

What Might Be A Better Alternative Than Asking Your Husband If He Wants Out Of The Marriage: As you might have gathered, I don’t think it’s ever a good idea to avoid the problems in your marriage. As painful and as awkward as discussing your issues can be, doing so is the only way to work through them. They are not likely to just go away on their own.

I believe that it’s a better idea for you to put the issue on the table instead of waiting for your husband to do so. Because sometimes, by the time he finally gets around to addressing your marriage, it is because he wants to end it.

But, while I advocate being proactive and bringing up your problems, I don’t advocate automatically jumping to the worst case scenario. If you approach your husband and bluntly ask him “do you want a divorce?” or “you want out of our marriage, don’t you?,” you’re almost nudging him toward saying yes.

Instead, you want to leave things open ended and you want to make it appear that you are working with him rather than accusing him or expecting him to say the worst. So, an alternative might be to say something like: “I’m sure we’ve both noticed that things aren’t going so well with our marriage. You’ve admitted that you’re not happy and if I’m being honest, I’m not happy with the way that things are going either. Rather than us both continuing to be unhappy and to just watch while our marriage continues to deteriorate, I’d like to take some action. I’m going to be trying to improve our marriage and I’d like your cooperation. It just doesn’t make sense to continue to be unhappy and avoid talking about our problems when we have the power to change things.”

Do you see the difference? You aren’t really asking for his opinion or cooperation (although it would be great if he’d enthusiastically tell you that he’s completely on board and he’s been waiting for you to take charge all along.) You aren’t really giving him the option to express that he wants out, unless he takes the initiative to interrupt you.

What Happens If You Still Suspect He Wants Out?: So what happens if you take the initiative and you bring up your marital issues but still get a lukewarm response from your husband? What if, despite your best efforts, he’s still moping around so that it’s obvious that he’s still unhappy?”

Well, there are a couple of options. Perhaps you haven’t given the process enough time. Maybe you haven’t made the process one that is fun for him so he’s resistant to becoming invested. Or perhaps there is something else going on in his life that is the real source of his unhappiness.

Whatever the reason, nothing says you can’t continue on with improving yourself and you happiness. So many people underestimate the possibility of greatly improving (or even saving) their marriage all by themselves. Yes, your husband will eventually need to cooperate. But often, you can make huge changes in your marriage by changing your outlook, your focus, and your habits, and behaviors. Often, as you become more happy, agreeable, and attentive, he will see that the whole process isn’t as impossible or as difficult as he once thought and his level of resistance (and his happiness) will begin to wane.

The bottom line is that I agree that it makes sense to be reluctant to ask your husband if he wants out. But it’s better to address your marriage without assuming the worst. And it’s even better to take positive and decisive action without waiting for someone else to take the lead.

When my husband first told me he wanted a separation, I swore that it came out of the blue with no warning. But as I look back on it now, I realize that there were warnings but I just chose to ignore them because I didn’t want to risk getting the answer that scared me the most. I did eventually save my marriage but it took so much more time and effort than if I had just started the dialog. If it helps, you can read the whole story on my blog at http://isavedmymarriage.com

I’m a big advocate of giving your spouse the space that they have asked for. One reason for this is because often, if you don’t respect their need for space, they are going to take it anyway and your refusal is potentially going to damage your marriage even more.

Not only that, but often giving space can allow your spouse to miss you and to see you more favorably. This, in turn, can help you save your marriage. But, some people mistakenly believe that all you have to do is give your spouse some space, wait for a little while, and then find your marriage miraculously transformed or saved. Unfortunately, this isn’t the way that it works each and every time. Giving your spouse space is an important step, but it isn’t the only step.

I heard from a wife who said: “I’ve read about the need for giving your spouse space. I guess I understand this. I don’t want to do it, but I feel like I have no choice. So if I give my husband space, will this save my marriage? Because I almost feel like I need a guarantee in order to make that leap. I don’t want to just give in and allow him to leave me, but I guess if this is what I have to do in order to save my marriage, then I will force myself to do so.”

Giving Your Husband Space Is Usually Only Step One: I didn’t want for this wife to misunderstand the whole concept of giving your spouse some time away from you. Giving your spouse space is not a guarantee that this act alone will save your marriage. The space is often step one of some additional marriage saving steps. Look at it this way, giving the space is kind of like opening the door. When done correctly, it will encourage your spouse to miss you and to therefore be more receptive to you. So, if the circumstances in your marriage also change for the better, then the stage is set for you to have some success. But, you can’t just sit and wait for more success to come your way. You usually have to take some action.

Step Two Is Usually Reconnecting: If step one is successful and the space has allowed your husband to miss you and therefore to be more receptive to you, then it’s time to work on reconnecting. This is the step where many people fail. I know first hand that it’s so tempting to want to get him back to you as soon as possible. But understand that this is a very delicate time. You don’t want to move too quickly or to push too much. You have him in a position where he’s thinking that maybe he was wrong about you or the marriage or acted too quickly, so don’t do anything to change his mind.

See, even though he may be very receptive to you, he still likely has some doubts. This is normal. He still probably remembers those problems or issues that lead up to him wanting space in the first place. Those things aren’t going to magically disappear because he misses you. It’s so important that you understand this.

No matter how much better things feel when he starts to be more receptive, you are often still on shaky ground, especially in the beginning. Don’t try to make any permanent moves until you have first laid a very strong foundation. Take things slowly. Go on dates and reconnect before you even think about tackling your problems. You want to get back to that point where you are both falling in love again. Because the waters ahead may well be rough. But if you are feeling loving and intense feelings for your spouse and you are going through a process of rediscovery, then you (and your spouse) will often be more willing to have patience and an open mind as you work through your problems. This is vital. Because if you try to work through your problems before you are reconnected, you are going to have a much more difficult time. (I know this first hand.)

Step Three Is Addressing The Difficult Problems That Lead To Him Wanting Space In The First Place (But Only When Your Marriage Can Withstand It.) Hopefully, you have had some restraint and you’ve both given your spouse space and taken things slow. If things are going well, by now you’re now at a point where you’re reconnected and you are both willing to make things work. But here is where the real work begins. As tempting as it can be to gloss over your problems, it’s so important that you don’t. Even if things seems to be going wonderfully, resist the temptation to ignore those issues that are possibly still laying in wait.

This doesn’t mean you have to start fighting again or need to dwell on your problems. You shouldn’t do either of these things. If you find that you don’t know how to work through your issues, get some help. You don’t have to make this process an uncomfortable one. You can discuss your issues in a hot tub, on vacation, or while having fun together. There is no right or wrong way to do it as long as you do it. And you may find that there are some issues on which you just can’t agree. This doesn’t have to be your undoing. You can agree to disagree on some issues as long as you both agree on ways to compromise or work around the remaining issues.

So to answer the question: “if I give my husband space, will it save my marriage?” the answer is maybe. But you have to follow through with the right gradual course of action.

I will be honest. The last thing I wanted to do when my husband asked for space was give it to him. I did everything in my power to change his mind, to make him feel guilty, and to trick him into settling for compromises. None of these things worked. And I was forced into both giving him space and backing off. But you know what? It was the backing off (with a little strategy mixed in) that made all of the difference. If it helps, you can read that very personal story of how I saved my marriage by giving my husband some space on my blog at http://isavedmymarriage.com

Love without Passion   Sex with out Love

“Love without Passion” is an oxymoron. And that’s how you should look at life. If someone is not providing you with passion, chances are they may not really love you.

Passion in a romance is very important part of a relationship between man and woman. The treatment of your companion with respect can certainly be a fairly easy way for you to rekindle romance. Romance in a romantic relationship is a combination of both individuals building a loving and enjoyable atmosphere. Typically the greatest need for romantic relationships is that it will make you totally, complete and a significantly happier individual. This is normal for romance to begin to fade when the lovers start to take one another for granted and stop attempting to delight one another.

 Now here’s the best part: this doesn’t require any sort of additional handstands or back flips or to help keep the romance in a relationship. You just need some desire to be able to keep up the passion.

Typically the sad thing is that often a lot of individuals that experience this accept it as being a normal part of everyday life and consequently don’t do what’s required to improve it. We are all aware the negative effects, unsatisfied human relationships, infidelity, divorces and shattered relationships. Absence of passion in a romance is usually the primary reason that a romantic relationships aren’t happy and gets into problems.

Simply put I know that many among us can easily bring to mind partners we all know to whom all the romance in their passion has cooled off dramatically from where it was previously.

Saving a marriage is about having the ability to talk one another. Lots of couples develop problems after a while, and this will take the passion out of relationship. All these problems develop when each partner has all of a sudden become too busy coping with everyday life to and therefore, they forget to be there for one another. Investing more of their time with each other is definitely the initial step in rebuilding or improving communication between the two of them. Problems should be talked about freely, and as quickly as possible. Never allow problems to go unresoved for very long this will only cause them to become even more serious and can strain the interaction between you and your partner.

It is actually normal for romantic relationships to start to fade when the companions start to take one another for granted and quit attempting to make an impression one another.

For those in a love relationship, you should remember that how romantic you are, is far more important than why you are being romantic with your partner.

As you can imagine, a great relationship are unable to exist with out passion, unless of course it is just a union of convenience. Typically the loss of passion is usually among the reasons why relationships wither and die, and restoring romance is needed when it comes to saving a realationship or marriage .Passion is relatively uncomplicated and it appears as though the romance will not ever fade.

Simply put I in all honesty believe that that trust and love is a very important thing. Passion may be one of the things that are important however in my opinion,not the most important. Passion may fade as we grow older but true love will always be there.
