Of course, but cheating is still wrong. isn't cheating. He hid his involvement because he knew he was in the wrong. I don't think he cared about his wife at that point.yellosteel wrote:I want you guys to know that it takes two to tango. If you are not giving your best and at the same time you're difficult to get along with,then I begin to wonder what you expect from that relationship. The fact that Yasser was even hiding his involvement shows that he care still.

Indeed, an emotional affair would be more painful.klbradley wrote:I agree, its still cheating. But talking usually ends up with more emotions than something physical, and I think an emotional affair would be more painful than a physical affair.

I agree! And he only retreated when he saw his lover was homeless.stalliongirlke wrote:infidelity always begins in the mind, and the fact that he retreated at the last minute doesn't absorb him of infidelity.

I agree with gali on this one. If you "have to" find "relief from someone else rather than your partner", then you shouldn't be with that partner. At that point, you are not partners anymore because not only is the first person cheating, but he/she is also lying everyday. Then the next question is - what kind of relationship is based on a lie?gali wrote:It still doesn't justify it, in my view.Amutinda wrote:I think its a matter of emotional stress, you find relief from someone else rather than your partner
