[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP: I felt this way too. I'm not younger than his wife, but in way better shape and far prettier. We also shared a very strong emotional connection, something that by his own admission was missing from his marital relationship. The 'affair' such as it was has ended, although in our case it was a lot more emotional than physical. The emotional connection I had with him made me extremely jealous of his wife -[b] the fact that he didn't connect with her emotionally[/b] made things worse for me, not better, with me frequently thinking "why could it not have been me". We didn't have a future together, and had to break it off, but I still feel slightly triumphant that he felt for me what he didn't feel for her.... But in the end, she has him, permanently, while I don't. That always kills any feelings of 'victory' that I might have.

That's what he told you and led you to believe. It often works when people (both men and women) seek to hold on to an affair.[/quote] Actually,  it can't be a lie, even if he is telling the PP what she wants to hear. A person who connects with their spouse emotionally, by default,  doesn't betray their trust by cheating. [/quote]

I disagree that it can't be a lie. Some people do have some emotional connection to their spouse but just like the thrill-seeking and novelty of an affair, or engage in compulsive/addictive behaviors, etc. I agree that the spouses don't have the emotional connection that they should have, but it's not unusual for cheaters to say and do whatever they want to get what they want. They're lying cheaters. [/quote]
