What Kinds of Affairs Do Men and Women Have?
Women tend to have emotional affairs. They want the romance and intimacy of a deep connection. They are missing the romantic friendship at home that they used to have, so they have affairs to replace the emotional bond they have lost.
This makes sense, because women are ruled by the hormone oxytocin. Oxytocin pushes women to nurture, mother, befriend, and take care of each other in social groups. When women are concerned that their man might be having an affair, their primary concern is that their man is establishing an emotional bond with someone else.
Girls are usually much less concerned with a physical affair than an emotional affair, which hurts them deeply and threatens the security of their family. When a guy has an emotional affair, one that lasts a long time, it is often devastating to a wife. This kind of affair frequently ends a marriage when the woman cannot forgive the affair.
Guys, on the other hand, tend to have physical affairs. They want a physical encounter that is new and unique. They do not usually want to establish a deep, long lasting friendship with the partner in their affair. They just want a fast, physical encounter and then often try to make a quick exit.
These guys have their emotional connection waiting at home, their wife, and they do not usually want to replace her. The sex at home might be boring and infrequent, or the kids might have taken his place in the physical affections of his wife. Testosterone, the hormone that drives men, creates a desire for physical procreation, not the lasting bonds of friendship.
When men worry about their women having an affair, it is the thought of another guy sleeping with their girl that drives them crazy. They don't really care how many friends their wife has, as long as she does not sleep with any of them. Knowing his wife slept with another man can be so devastating to a man that he might end the marriage, unable to forgive the physical encounter of his wife with another man.
Know and understand the two kinds of affairs, physical and emotional,. This can help you see trouble coming in your relationship. Talk with your partner, fix problems early, and tell each other that it is a priority to keep your family, union and friendship safe and secure from outside threats.
Cheating and affairs are not inevitable. Many people have affairs, but just as many do not. There are a lot of things you can do to affair- proof your relationship.
