yes it is cheating physical relationship or even thinking about it would really be against the word of God.Yes,it is cheating because if he finds out surely he will be very hurt.If you are tired of him them divorce him and find another man.he deserves some respect.
oh yes it is ,you are depriving your spouse of true emotional support, if your married then you are breaking your vows, ” keeping yourself only unto him”
It depends on how you feel towards that person. If you like this person beyond being just friends, then you should not be around that person unless you are looking for trouble. If the friendship is strictly friends then no it’s not cheating. A lot of times you find that we mistake a liking for someone is just lusting after them and the feeling will eventually subside, but just be careful though things can happen so fast.
yes and i think everyone does it up to a point theres too many people on this earth obviously even writing these answer things could be wrong connecting ADAM AND EVE AND GOD ONLY HAD EACH OTHER PERIOD…
If you are giving the best of yourself to someone else it is cheating. It is cheating you and your spouse out of the chance for the true intimacy that might make the difference in your marriage. Simple answer but true.
No; you are allowed to have close friends & relatives and love other people.
What makes it an affair is when you *lie* about it.
What makes it an assault on the marriage is when you prefer to send time with your “friend” than your spouse – you start to place them in the #1 spot instead of your spouse.
Otherwise I am having an “emotional affair” on my wife with my sister.
Virtually *all* affairs are phony; emo-affairs are certainly phony.
You “fall in love” with the fantasy, not the real person.
Unfortunately many women *love* doing this – i.e. “butterflies” – and often even think that this is how love starts so the consequentially freak-out when either themselves or their spouse develops a crush on someone else and thinks it means their marriage is emotionally unsound.
The crush does not make it unsound; an ability to honestly talk about it does.
What are you talking about when you say “emotional?” Are you pouring out your marital problems to this person? Are you co-workers who are discussing acquaintances from work whom your spouse doesn’t know? Any of these would be considered “emotional.”
The point is that as of yet, no betrayal of marriage vows has taken place. If you are complaining about your marital probs, be very careful because it could soon become physical. Co-workers? Not to worry. As long as you know the boundaries and respect them, then you have a right – as a human being – to enjoy “emotional” relationships with other humans, even those of the opposite sex.
I would suggest that you and your spouse discuss/get counseling to air your emotional needs if marital probs are what you are confiding. He is not meeting your emotional needs.
Yes an emotional relationship is even worse than a physical one. In an emotional relationship you give your heart soul and deep feelings. If the relationship is just physical you do not give anything of you to it except a body part and you can get the same satisfaction from a sex toy.
Hell yeah, cheating is cheating. There is no but, if , should, or could about it. Cheating is an unforgivable offense. Once a cheater will always be a cheater. Leave the cheater right away
Yes. Physical relationship might not last long but emotional relationship will last longer. Its definitely cheating your spouse.
Yes, and could lead to more than being just emotional. Because, emotional relationships take over all thoughts that you should have for your spouse.
NO

Well yes, and is not long to become physical so is the same so is cheating
yes it is. so when your are with your husband who are you thinking about?
Emotional relationships are phony, anyway.

I tend to agree with Cracker Jack. From one side most certainly it is always phony. He wants to escape, and you are his escape. Not so great.
lol! Cracker Jack, they think we are wrong. Go figure!
EDIT~ Shannon… See they think we are full of it. Pfft!

I would say that it is not cheating.
However, it is one great way to complicate your life and perhaps lead to a lot of sadness later on.

I think your question is too vague.

Its called an emotional affair, and they are just as bad as physical. Most physical affairs start out as emotional.
