Have you ever been in a relationship or an emotional affair with a married man? Then you know that men rarely leave their wives for the other woman, right? It’s hard for women to accept, but it’s true. Besides, why would you want a man liken that anyway?
Some unscrupulous men take advantage of the kind, loving nature of women. Soon you can tangled up in an emotional affair believing the two of you have a special bond together. And you fantasize that he’ll leave his ugly, mean, fat wife for you. Now, maybe she is like that, but be honest…if she was, why did he marry and stay with her if she was so awful? The sad reality is he probably uses you to have fun on the side.
Perhaps this emotional affair is exciting because your married suitor keeps saying you’re flawless and beautiful. He says you’re soulmates and he wishes you were his wife instead. Believe it or not, it’s probably just a tactic to get you in bed. He may not ask for it, but he desperately wants you to sleep with him.
The reasons men cheat usually come down to the fact that their marriage has gotten stale and one or more of his needs (not just sexually) are not being met to his satisfaction. An emotional affair is usually born out of some dissatisfaction with the marriage. That’s the same reason women cheat too.
Why doesn’t he leave his wife? Who knows! For some men, it’s “cheaper to keep her.” That means that men sometimes stay with a woman they don’t love because it’s cheaper and easier to live in an unhappy marriage than to divorce and get stuck paying alimony and child support. Then there are people who enjoy having emotional affairs because they don’t consider it cheating. The reasons vary from one situation to the next.
So whether you are either having an emotional affair or engaging in full infidelity, just know that you will probably never be “the one” as long as you stay with that man. You’re better off moving on to find someone of your own. Besides, even if you became one of the rare women who got a married man to leave his wife for you, then you would be the one always doubting and wondering if you’re the next one to get cheated on. After all, if he did it to her, why not you too?
