    Yes, I consider it emotional abuse. I guess it would depend on the spouse's outlook on infidelity. If they are open to it, (which I would think to be very uncommon) then it isnt abuse.

    Yes, I think that when you do that you are telling that person not only that you don't love or respect them, but that they aren't worth not cheating on. This can really have some major emotion effects on someone, leading to troubles in other relationships.
