Please tell me your story and share some tips-- the best gets an automatic 10 points! Please help me; I really need some advice! Thank youHas your relationship survived something like this?

OK the obvious:


Separate cheating on two parts:


1: Physical: Very bad, but very common. Could be a relationship breaker or can be something that is overcome.


2: Emotional: Some people don't mind, some mind more than others. Where someone is all cozy and has lots of emotional intimacy with a third person, leaving the spouse feeling left out.








Sit down with your significant other and explain this.


Explain that this is not time for excuses, but for addressing the problem and moving forth with the proper corrective measures.





My wife had a friend who constantly send her flowers (we were not married at the time). I don't mind someone sending my (at the time) girlfriend flowers for her birthday or some occasion but not twice a month ';just because';


So i told her TO TELL HIM that next flowers, he could send me a Rolex, or some coupons for a strip bar or some nice detail, but don't forget that she was with someone now, and don't make me feel left out.


I explain that some things are reserved for the couple.


The surprises at Valentines, sex, the romantic dinners, the personal pressents, those are things that shouldn't happen between ';just friends';


I told her i don't mind someone giving her flowers on a marked occasion, and she would never hear me talking about it but not like it was happening with this guy.


She understood and we moved forth.





If your significant other doesn't want to give in, or give you the BS line of ';It's your problem if you feel threaten, not mine'; remind him that if you guys are going to be a couple then he has to be sensitive to things that bother you.


Tell him that next week the shoe will be on the other foot, and you will be bringing in your male friends, and asking your BF to leave the house for you guys, and see how he likes it.





Good look. This is a great test to see if the relationship is worth compromising or not.
