(USA) I was blessed to come upon this site. My husband of 26 years had an emotional affair with a coworker. He talked of her constantly and even made me start to like her as a person. When he kept talking about switching jobs and taking her with him, I grew concerned. Then he gave her roses and told me about it. He then told me she reciprocated with a single rose.
To make a long story short, she called even when on vacation with her husband, and he even left our table on our anniversary to speak with her on the phone. But he insists it was only friendship. The most he has ever said is that he is sorry “it” bothered me, and finally did admit he “became too friendly.” But that is it.
It is a year to the day he gave her roses. My heart hurts as much as it ever did. He has left that job and did promise to have no communication with her. I do not know however, if that is true with emails and cell phones and all… I learned a few months ago she left her husband while my husband is her “best friend.” She is now divorced.
He is pleasant. But when I told him I would like to have roses some day, he threw a fit and said he will leave if I don’t trust him.
I don’t know where I stand, really. I think about the hurt all the time and find it impossibile to enjoy myself at all. When and how can I get over this? Thank you. Tess
(US) The “I had an Emotional Affair” My feedback: this “Alex” was no friend and acted unbiblically. If one sees a brother offended, or overtaken in a fault – what Scripture says is “go to his in-laws and tell all.” So the author is publically humiliated –though he didn’t commit adultery, while the wife looks like a martyr and the in-laws (likely) look down their noses at the husband forever, when in fact they were a large part of the problem with the marriage. What a crock!
This so called friend was totally out of line. No one in the church today knows how to handle things biblically so they do the best they can with “leaning on their own understanding.”
Furthermore, while not condoning the author’s actions –how in the world could his wife expect to continue cutting him off emotionally and sexually and expect any other result? What a crock again!
Frankly the whole article was poorly done and unbiblically resolved. It irritated me. Had I been in the author’s place, the first thing I would have done is let this Alex know that he was an untrustworthy, unfaithful friend. Obviously, being faithful was something he was good at. Maybe his church should look at discipline for his being a gossip.
(USA) I posted my comment back in August regarding my situation. I am disappointed to say that nothing has changed. I am in no way disappointed in God. I believe prayer works and I will continue to pray. I did leave for like two days; he asked my to come back and he said he chose me over the other person.
However, that is what he said with his lips. I know for a fact the is still in communication with her. And I can not say that at this point their “friendship” is an just emotional one. But through it all I am CONFINDENT in Christ. I know that I have the Truth which is the word of God on my side no matter how he lies to me. I don’t care how he thinks he is getting by but he must come to repentance if he wants the power of God to be active in his life. Satan has a stronghold on him that only God can break.
I love him dearly and he really is a great guy but he needs deliverance. I begin to read a book called Sarced Marriage I love it. Marriage is a tool to make you Holy. So I am going to trust God to help me make the right decisions. Please pray for me and him as I do for you all. Thank you.
