HappyAtLast Posted December 19, 2009 Posted December 19, 2009 Nice to see you also! My apologies, I had not really "read" the whole thread, and I can see how my statement could mislead other women on this board. What NID says is very true, I was no longer in love with my then-wife. That does make a huge difference in the situation. While I believe that there is nothing better than being in love, the fact of the matter is that, love or sex, someone is not going to leave a marriage until they decide they are going to do so.
torranceshipman Posted December 19, 2009 Posted December 19, 2009 To answer the OP, no...in the case of an EA I think it just so happens to meet the MMs needs as well as an PA (ego boost, etc). Plus I know some people think that if it isnt physical they have less to feel guilty over. It might also be that the MM is 'setting the stage', so to speak, for a PA, or just generally that he gets the ego boost he needs from an EA without needing a PA too... I don't think you can look at this in terms of respect - there isn't any respect in the A and the MM is in it for his own selfish reasons only.
