[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Sounds like she's milking an emotional affair for all it's worth. My husband and I have gone through patches where we are distant because we just aren't on the same page for whatever reason. I probably in those times would not even care if he had a close female friendship. There have been times I daresay I would not have cared if he had a physical affair, I have reached points of being that checked out. We always come back to a a good place but every marriage has those rough spots. Why is she so hung up in the "emotional affair"? It wasn't physical, right? She has to make the effort to move on as well. She can't linger forever in the "well you did x so I can be mad about y" or you'll never move past it. So she has to be willing to actually attempt to move on and let go of her ace card and not keep it in her back pocket to use against you when it's convenient. [/quote]

The betrayed spouse is "milking" betrayal?  :roll: Look, if you don't care if you and your spouse betray each other, that's your choice. This woman has every right to react as she sees fit.

You say you wouldn't care if your spouse has an affair, but I bet if he brought you home an STD, left you for the other person, was hiding a secret life and using money to do so, was spending time with another person and neglecting you and any children you had together for another person, the affair would get real real fast for you.

You check your spouse and he hasn't cheated, so you have no experience with a cheating spouse, but are impugning a woman whose husband actually had an affair? Wow, thanks, lady. You have to have your nose shoved in crap like she has and attempt to rid yourself of the stench before giving advice. SMH[/quote]

wtf, OP didn't do any of that! She hasn't gone through that anymore than I have. Obviously if that were the scenario I would feel different but shit, they were emotionally distant and he had a friendship with another woman that he ended up cutting off. Yes, she's being overly dramatic and punitive because she CAN. She's holding this "emotional affair" over his head even though she likely didn't actually give a shit about it while it was happening if they were as distant as he says. [/quote]

You're just as emotionally stunted and self-indulgent as OP comes across, so no wonder you have so much in common[/quote]
