Emotional Infidelity - The Web Of Intrigue Round Your Husbands Emotional Affair

So you honestly feel your husband is having an emotional affair. He denies doing anything wrong, but you have seen the signs. Maybe you have checked his phone, those texts are clearly from someone he is very close to.

You are probably worried sick about the future.... never planned on being a single mom! You thought your marriage would last forever!

You could be worried about how the bills are going to get paid, how you will cope looking after the children? Will he be reliable with maintenance, will he try and take the children away from you? Will you ever find anyone to trust again?

The biggest question though, is why did it happen?

To make any sense of what is going on, you need to know why men get involved in emotional infidelity. This will help you discover how to repair your relationship. You may think that you will never be able to do that but, with some help, you can get your relationship back even better than before.

Why?

The basic fact of the matter is your husband was, either consciously or sub-consciously not getting what he needed from your relationship. Please know, I am not blaming you at all; it was him that got involved in the emotional infidelity in the first place.

But it is easy for him to fall for another woman's charms when they start. Who hasn't succumbed to a bit of flattery? Women do know how to stroke a mans ego. Many men like to feel like a rescuer, so if a pretty woman has a problem he can solve, and then they show him that they appreciate his efforts, he will enjoy that. You can see how before long she goes to him with all her little troubles. And he knows that he will get appreciated, flattered even - without the responsibilities of children and home - you can see how men can fall headlong into the trap.

What can you do?

If you want to protect your marriage against emotional infidelity, then you need to show that you appreciate the little things your husband does do around the home. You must recognise his efforts.

I know, he doesn't lift a finger. But you have to get into the mentality of little children - remember how even if your children tried to help (but made more of a mess) you still praised them for trying? Yep, that is the approach you need to take for your men. Even if they just try to help, don't criticise. Thank them.

Don't try and cope with everything.

If there is a little thing you can trust them with, make sure you do. Jam jars are good - let them be the strong man and open it for you. It really boosts their ego when they can be the one that rescues you.

If you think back to a time when you and your husband were happy together, when you talked about everything, and you felt that you would be together forever...........well if you put the plan into action, you can get back to that time.

Obviously I can't give you all the information you need right here in this article, it would be far too long.
