You’re right to be cautious when you hear these words “Im telling you, were just friends”.
Good people in good marriages are having affairs. The workplace and the Internet have become fertile breeding grounds for friendships that can slowly and insidiously turn into love affairs.
Yet you can protect your relationship from emotional or sexual betrayal by recognizing the red flags that mark the stages of slipping into an improper, dangerous intimacy that can threaten your marriage.
Not Just Friends Rebuilding Trust and Recovering Your Sanity after Infidelity by Author Shirley P. Glass with Jean Coppock Staeheli.

This sounds like an interesting book. I’d especially like to hear what the “red flags” are.
I bet one is them is you look forward to hearing from the person everyday so that means you have become emotional attached.
Lets face it though, anyone who is honest to themselves whould be able to recognise the ‘red flags’ which signal danger without having to buy a book.
Calpyso, then you are just going to have to get the book…..
Liza, I actually have a free e-book on 50 Ways to Mend a Broken Heart and it lists emotional attachment / waiting to hear back from him as one of the top 10.
You can download the book by entering the member’s section.
Green-Moo, that’s true for most part.
But since cheating is not a common occurance in our life…. most people need direction as to what steps they should take.
Book such as this not only provides tips, but also provide the mental support that most of us need in time of confusion.
Sorry Imaginary Diva, I can’t agree with that. This books is about recognising danger signs in YOUR OWN behaviour after all, and only you can possibly know what’s ‘wrong’ there.
I have to agree with Green. No matter how busy and hectic your daily life may be, you need to be looking after your hubby; you would be able to see danger signs starting if you’re giving your hubby the care he needs.
Molly, perhaps a better way of putting it would be to say that you need to look after your RELATIONSHIP. Our husbands/partners are adults and are easy able to look after themselves (allegedly!)
Green-Moo, I do agree to a certain extent. Only you can know the trouble you have, but these books do offer a little bit more than just what to watch out for.
People who tend to pick up these books are the ones having problems. I don’t see a normal person who is in a wonderful relationship picking up this book to see if their relationship is in trouble.
mollyL, if you give your husband everything that he needs, then for sure, he won’t ever need anything else.
But who really has the time to do that?
“I don’t see a normal person who is in a wonderful relationship picking up this book to see if their relationship is in trouble.”
Well, no. Neither do I. But you could say that forewarned is forearmed perhaps? Maybe we ought.
Green-Moo, umm…. I threatened to send my husband back to his parent’s home because he thought I had to take care of him….
LoL, good on you Imaginary Diva. Of course, there the sort of looking after that we enjoy doing for our partners, and then there’s washing socks ….
Diva, I have time. True enough, I don’t work outside the house anymore, but even when I was working 40+ hours my hubby was still the most important thing going. I am lucky that he treats me the same way. We were married very young and it seemed the whole world was against us (it was).We’ve not forgotten through the years, and always keep each other first.
That sounds like a recipe for a sucessful marriage Molly. Of course, it only works when it’s two way, and you guys sounds like you’re experts.
Green-Moo, LOL! Just today, he was grumpy that he couldn’t find socks that matched because I didn’t match them together….
Green-Moo, it really does work when you find your soulmate. Sometimes people just don’t take the time to wait for the right partner to come. When we rush, then we end up settling…
Partners that are meant to be, don’t have to work hard in making a relationship work. And it’s always so refreshing to hear that.
IDiva, sometimes you do have to leave them unmatched, just so he sees that you actually take the time out to do this, when you do it again, I am sure he will be more appreciative.
Imaginary Diva said Partners that are meant to be, don’t have to work hard in making a relationship work. And it’s always so refreshing to hear that.
I am not sure that is right, maybe they just work so well that we don’t notice the effort they put into their relationship. A bit like when a duck swims, it looks easy but there is a lot happening beneath the surface.
I like the way you explainsed that deltic, maybe you are right all the little things they do for each other add up to a lot of effort.
