Is divorce the answer for his emotional affair? Are there other options that are available to draw him back into the marriage and away from the other woman? You know all too well just how devastating emotional affairs can be to a marriage. You're one of the walking wounded. But, does your marriage have to be the final victim in this war for his heart?
You can save your marriage from his emotional affair. The thing is you're going to have to get him on board and willing to try to. That can be difficult with the powerful pull of an emotional affair vying for his time and attention.
The good news is that there is one thing that really works to throw a monkey wrench in the affair and bring his focus and attention back to you. The bad news is that distance is that one thing. Not distance from you but from the other woman.
If you're into cruises or long-term travel plans this can be great news. If you're on a tight budget it might take a little more creativity like a week camping far away from cellular signals and Wi-Fi access. You have to get him completely unplugged from the other woman for a while so that he can focus on you. Then you have to use this time wisely to get him to fall in love with you all over again and recommit to your marriage.
Does it seem like too much of an uphill battle? For some people it is a little too much but that doesn't mean it's impossible.
Emotional affairs are powerful. Even though the affair hasn't yet been consummated in a physical sense; that doesn't mean it is any less powerful than a long-term affair. Your husband has real emotions tied into this affair and it would be unwise to dismiss this as unimportant because there's no sex involved yet. Yet is the most important word in that sentence. With a powerful emotional affair it is only a matter of time.
You must get your husband away from the other woman for as long as possible until his attention is turned back to you and his commitment is now to your marriage. Even when you return to the real world of technology and communication you must continue to be watchful that he has in fact cut off all ties with the other woman. For the sake of your marriage, this is something that must be done.
