Anyone have a spouse that's committing emotional infidelity?

What did you do about it?

Update:

I'm talking about an internet affair. Emails and IM messages. Your spouse starts treating you bad, so they don't feel so guilty about what they are doing and they even try to blame it on you.

    Put a stop to it right now or, trust me, it will turn in to a full fledged affair.

    I think I might be as likely to believe he was having a fling with an angel. I just don't know about this emotional affair business. Isn't everyone's problem with it really just that they are mad even though it ended before step 2, so they decided to find a way to call step 1 "irresponsible and inappropriate."

    You know, some may even think it is appropriate to congratulate someone who excercises their willpower and ends it at step 1. Ever thought about that? It's called the glass is half f*cking full! And that's the silver lining--take a good long gander at it. It's pretty, yes? Why, then, do you never see it??

    I am probably not the best person to give you advice on this matter because I am currently enjoying a married man who is 'emotionally cheating' on his wife by lusting after me..but I can tell you it will not stop there, and if I wanted to, I could have him in bed in a heart beat. We, the other women, know what these men are lacking and are willing to give it to them..I would tell your husband if he doesn't stop the flirting to pack his stuff and leave..you deserve better, and total honesty.

    I'm finally so exhausted from all of it,I don't care if he continues or not.

    My wife just did that. I just ignore her and stop talking back. Now she has a problem how to talk with me. She is in another country and she may return on her own without me fetching her.

    Talk

    Counseling

    If those fail, and you feel this is an unforgivable breech of your relationship then leave.

    Good luck to you.
