Re: Emotional Affairs
[ QUOTE ]
I do agree though. I think that it is a wonderful way to avoid bad situations, especially regarding emotional affairs. If you know your own limitations, truly, then you really can't go wrong as long as you're smart enough not to try and say, "Oh, well this can be an exception...." Because then you're in trouble.

The trouble (for me anyway) are situations I can't avoid. A wife's good friend that hangs out and clearly likes me (as a friend) or a coworker I need to interact closely and frequently.
It's not that I'd cheat, I'm pretty disciplined. It's that I don't want to feel that attraction for someone I can't have. It's sort of painful in a way to have affection for someone, but be unable to express it.
