What do we think of 'emotional infidelity?' I am conflicted.
-
-
Is the boundary between emotional closeness and emotional infidelity abt a sense of being 'in love' & does this always relate to sexuality?
-
I cld see that I might find it a problem if my husband more emotionally open with another woman but harder to feel I had a right to object.
-
That would seem like an unjustifiable possessiveness. At same time, I cld say I felt like that & try to fix it from my end or leave, Dunno?
-
On other hand, if my husband shared more emotionally with a male friend, I'd not be threatened at all. I do this regularly re female friends
-
This is all hypothetical, btw, in relation to someone else. Neither my husband nor I particularly emotionally expressive!
-
Well, all of your replies indicate the same confusion I feel on the issue. Ppl talking abt all sorts of things from all sorts of angles.

we
types tend not to care so much. It's accepted you'll seek emotional closeness and support with your friends… -
Women too? The only partner I ever had who resented my female friendships was female.
-
But, Mark & I had a closeness that felt romantic but not remotely sexual.When he died, his boyfriend said'You know he was in love with you?'
-
And I did. But his boyfriend didn't mind coz it was a different being in love. And my boyfriend didnt mind either. Very confused.
-
these things very a lot depending on the personalities involved, but generally men are far more simple and straightforward.
