    If l made my partner watch this he'd run straight to his female bestie and l'd be in the doghouse. He has no idea how much emotional damage he is doing to me. He is doing everything that you stated. I've never looked thru his phone but a msg popped up when l was next to his phone and she was gushing on about how much she missed him, even though he saw her 2 weeks prior. If l ever say anything he sticks up for her, not my feelings. It's created a big void in our relationship, l get anxiety attacks just at the mention of her name and he says lm overreacting, he's known her longer than me, obviously her feelings are more important than mine.

    Clearly defined about emotional infidelity, and well explained in this short video, thank you!! My wife was in contact with multiple men online sharing our personal problems with them and one of them was flirty. She also had been dating online with several men for over 2 years which I found out recently after digging into her account's history. I don't know what she was up to, well I only heard her say "I will earn money the wrong way, I want lavish life" during our fight.

      HI Karilyon, I wouldn't consider your partner having private conversations they hide with their adult children cheating. However, it certainly would break trust and need to be explored to see what's the cause and the solution.

    Plus the partner will need to start opening up to talk. If someone is looking for that connection somewhere else then chances are they've tried and there partner just wont talk or connect up then boom you'll find it somewhere else. Usually takes 3 folk to create this problem.

      "It takes 3"..are you crazy? Youre responsible for your own actions and choices. 2 wrongs dont make a right. Theres no excuse for emotional cheating. You either make the choice to leave or you make the choice to lie and cheat..pretty simple and its on you.

      I'm so sorry for this extreme breach of trust you're experiencing. If you decide to work toward healing the marriage, the first step is for him to cease all contact with the person and prove it to you by opening up all accounts and his phone. If he refuses then get a separation with no contact until he cooperates. Here's my affair recovery article for guidance. www.drwyattfisher.com/blogs/marriage-blog/8-steps-to-affair-recovery

    • @drwyattfisher
      @drwyattfisher  6 месяцев назад +1

      You start by not worrying if you're going to push her out the door or not. Instead, you do the right thing and let her respond however she chooses to. Otherwise, your fear of her reaction is controlling you and enabling her. When a partner has highly suspicious behavior like this it's recommend to request transparency with phones/accounts. If they don't cooperate, a separation is recommended until they do.

    So my husband had an emotional with his female friend. They used to ride the bike together but since I confronted him and he stopped. I blocked her and stopped talking to her but now coincidentally they both are ride on the same day and once a week with a group. She first saw him and she texted him to let him know about the link for the group ride but he deleted. So my question is am I over reacting doctor? I can’t stop him from not ridding cuz he love riding the bike. How do I move on for not being so hurtful? Just the thought they see each other on Tuesday it hirt but he claims he has no feeling for her. I trust him but not her. Thanks

    I'm going through this right now with my girlfriend. She has gone out 1 on 1 with her male coworker on multiple occasions (we have a ldr so I couldn't be there) and I have repeatedly told her I don't feel comfortable with her spending time alone with another man (he is single, and straight, that makes it even worse for me). They have also exchanged numbers and text nearly every day. She thinks an affair will never happen to her because she loves me, I keep trying to warn her about emotional closeness turning into physical closeness and the damage that will bring to our relationship. Now we agreed that I will come along to the next few meetings of her and this coworker so she can keep seeing him but I will also be able to catch the vibe and establish myself as her boyfriend. It's a tough situation to be in for sure. I want her to have this friend but I'm also afraid for the consequences down the road if this goes south

      If they weren't having a physical affair then that was definitely her way of telling him she was willing. The real question is how did he respond to that comment. A lot of the times we don't realize we are being "flirty" but if it is unintentional, as soon as someone says something like "I wanna have your babies" we will address it and tell them we don't feel comfortable with that kind of talk...but if they don't address it then there's a chance they want it too, on some level.

      Going through something similar right now.. my boyfriend is confiding in my best friend, I went thru his dms and came across their chat and then confronted him abt it, he said he was sorry and that he has stopped confiding in her but it broke my heart that he chose her over me.. and he would even occasionally complain abt how I'm not good enough.. he hid it, but she would sometimes tell me about how he keeps whining abt how I dont treat him good enough.. I recently found out that this is indeed a form of cheating.. and I'm very confused.. should I break up or should I continue.. he absolutely broke my heart and my trust
