    My sister was a wife so when she found out I was seeing a married man, but trying to break it off, I received zero emotional support from her. It’s the lowest form of human to be the other woman. Thank you so much for this. Any relationship that feels like home should be a giant red flag for me even though we are only an emotional affair. Sorry for rambling. I literally have no one to talk to. I’ve been isolating for months.

    I wanted to finish the entire video first before I post a comment, but at 17:42 I just couldn’t stop myself. You both are very emotionally intelligent women, I just admire you both, the way you serve the reality on a plate is just so warm and comforting. How fortunate it would be to have these women as your friends. 2 very amazing people in one video. Lucky to find this hidden gem in the midst of all the stuff in youtube. Cheers to you beautiful women! Thank you for what you do.

      Why? To validate your betrayal to your spouse. Who cares about him right? As long as you satisfy your impulses that's all that matters. Unbelievable. If you don't intend to keep your marriage vows then don't get married. Very simple proposition. Men are walking away from marriage simply because it's a scam and men get raked over the coals in court.

      Are you also married? I hope not. Why be part of ruining someone else's family ? Don't you have agency over your actions? Apparently not.

    I hope this is a parody. Darling, having an extra marital affair violates one's marriage vows and is the lowest form of betrayal to your spouse. Either fix your marriage and resolve your issues or leave. If a woman cheats on her man it is OVER. No coming back from this betrayal. Trust is completely broken never to come back.

      Yes I agree. I have seen a spouse cheat and were able to rebuild their marriage. Rebuild trust. Not all is black and white. Not all marriages recover either. Depends on if both people are willing to do the work.

    Thanks so much for this. I just felt so identified. I met an older man (he is 56, I’m 39) and we connected inmediately, and after we had sex the first time he told me that he is in a commited relationship. I felt used, but somehow I feel like a magnet that attract me to him and I really want to continue seeing him. I know that this is not going to end well for me, my rational mind knows that, but I really feel, as you said, drawn to him.

      Imagine you're turning 40 and you realize that instead of having built a meaningful relationship built on trust, maturity, and deep connection, you've settled for being the affair partner to some old guy who lied about who he was until you slept with him. Is that the kind of relationship you fantasized about having in your younger years? Would you yourself have respect and feel a sense of admiration for a middle-aged woman who chose that path for herself?

      Build you own future. Try doing that with a man who’s not in a committed relationship with his wife. He’s a back stabber or he wouldn’t be cheating on his wife. He’d be doing you every now and then and he’s doing his wife all the time (probably tells you he’s not). So you’re being used and you two adulterers are ripping his soul bond with his wife all to hell. Statistics show that men usually don’t leave their wives and if they do and join the adulteress fling partner it doesn’t work out the vast majority of the time. Your wasting time getting used and all the while ruining other people’s relationships. The man wins. He gets to eat his wife and his whoredog too. Protect yourself. Respect yourself and respect other women. Don’t entertain an affair. You will get hurt deeply. Everyone will. If he’s cheating on his wife then he’ll cheat on you too because he’d already be cheating on you with his wife! You just believe the dickhead and think he’s not. 😂

    I’m literally dying inside. I had past trauma. I just ended my relationship with a married man, I’m not the only other woman either. He was a friend first for 4 yrs. We started being intimate and i fell in love w him. When he wouldn’t text me I would go into this severe anxiety and start shaking and throwing up. My body was literally telling me he’s not right for me, but my heart kept making me go back. I ended it 2 days ago and now I feel I can’t do it, and want him back only because the pain is so immense

      ​@@BAMshazam First, you've clearly been hurt and you're angry, I am truly sorry for you having to endure such painful heartache. But you need to take some of your own advice to respect women, calling someone"whoredog" who may be trapped in an equally heartbreaking trauma bond is not helpful to anyone. And the woman you replied to is clearly trying and struggling. Emotional bonds are intensely complicated and affairs are nothing new. Monogamy is not natural for humans so it shouldn't be shocking when partners struggle. Shaming and ridiculing anyone for their feelings is again, not helpful, quite the opposite actually.

      @@mindtag14 agree and I thought I removed that word. My apologies however an adulterous fling partner put herself in that situation and stayed in it long enough to form that bond. The marriage partner did not. His commit to her was for life. He is a devious lying deceptive adulterous infidel. Who wants that? I wouldn’t.

Why bother entering any form of a committed relationship, especially something as sanctified as marriage only to betray your spouse and ruin your family. I don't agree with your premise that monogamy has become anachronistic and is no longer doable. That's false. You need to work on yourself or otherwise stay single and avoid ruining someone else's life.

    "You once told me that you don't love Anna and that you still love me so much, and always will. Love cannot be put in chains, and it can't be bought by money either. Love needs freedom; only then can it make you happy." This was a response from ONE of my husband's mistresses after he was caught and immediately ended things with her. She had no idea, but when he visited her, he'd sleep with her one night and a sex worker the next. If a man will lie to his wife, he might very well be lying to you too!

    I was involved with someone for a year before they told me they had a wife etc, and they told me at the point they had developed feelings for me and no longer wanted it to just be a casual fling. At the point they told me, i was involved in a traumatic incident with a friend of his that he was also present with and so he was supporting me through that, we were supporting one another. also i recently became estranged from my parents and became homeless and im in a refuge so basically what im saying is, there are few relationships in my life right now that give me the level of comfort and safety that he is giving me. I can tell that he cares deeply for me. We’re not in a sexual relationship, at this point its just an emotional relationship, which if anything just adds more confusion as it’s giving our relationship a false sense of depth and meaning… but without that external support I’m finding it impossible to be apart from him

    It's difficult to leave the situation completely when you work together and he's your boss. I'm his personal assistant. I've been trying to find another job, but in this economy it's a joke. I personally believe he likes the idea of him dangling a carrot over me because he's my only source of income while I go to graduate school to be a therapist. I stopped the relationship because I was starting to have suicidal ideation, and I'm still dealing with it.

    Getting involved with a man that you know is married is going to have huge consequences. Maybe not right away, but eventually karma comes full circle and the statistics show it. A lot of useful info in this video, however, it is not helpful to gloss over the very real consequences of having an affair. Everyone gets hurt, no one goes unscathed. That’s why it’s forbidden fruit.
