Infidelity Support Group
Any relationship in which one partner engages willfully in sexual relations with another outside of the partnership is considered to have experienced infidelity. This breach of trust is often traumatizing for the faithful partner as well as the relationship, and support is often needed to heal emotionally and to decide whether or not the relationship should continue after...
I was told the physical affair lasted 2 1/2 months BUT the emotional affair will never end. He loved her and on some level always will. She will always be his fantasy. He threw his family away for her.
Physical I can deal with but, it take emotions to get really intimate.

even when they do leave the statistics for those relationships working out are very small..... I think they say that 90% of men never leave their wives for the OW..... something like 8% do....but out of those...more than half end up breaking up with the OW.
The affair for most of them is a complete fantasy....and as soon as reality hits they wake up from their fog and realize what they are losing and how little they have with the OM/OW. It's all about their ego...the OW knows how to flatter, compliment,massage that ego...its even more important to them than the sex...and of course the OW exaggerate about that too...and put on a real show....which is easy to do...when you get together once every few weeks.... or every few months (like in my husband's case)...or just for a few minutes of a BJ in the car.... that's not reality.... as soon as they start to live with the OP 24/7 they see their true colors....and usually it isn't pretty. I think the only reason some of them stay is because they are too embarrassed or too proud to admit how badly they screwed up their lives for a meaningless realtionship...so its a sad story for most when they do leave for the OP
They are still together as of today.
