subject: Emotional Affair: A Silent Relationship Killer [print this page] One current relationship problem gaining popularity nowadays is the fear of having an emotional affair. This type of affair is quite hard to determine since most of the time, people who are inside this affair may be perceived as just friends. People having this kind of affair do not highly engage in physical intimacy as well. If you are to ask me, this affair is more dangerous than physical affairs? Why is that so? This is because the affair is strengthened by emotional attachment. The stronger the attachment the hard it is to escape. This is why this kind of affair usually has a strong power to kill the primary relationship of the individual having an affair.
Most of the time, an emotional affair, like any other affair, is characterized by deception. Deception in a sense that your partner may be keeping loads of secrets from you. You can actually notice this when you ask about the whereabouts of your partner and whatever they may be doing for the day. If your partner is committing an affair it is most likely that they will be lying about any information on their whereabouts or whatever it is that they may be doing. In addition to that, some people who are committing an affair usually go home late and leave the house very early. This is for the reason that they want to spend a great deal of time with their new found partners.
These emotional affairs can destroy any kind of relationship of whatever length and value. Even the most powerful and strongest bonds can be broken when the other party cheats. Trust is broken when one commits infidelity and losing trust in a relationship is like losing the relationship as well. Be vigilant with your current relationship problems to prevent emotional affair from ruining your life.
