Will you be more afraid if your spouse was involved in a "one night stand" or an "emotional affair?"

Neither! My husband is either working, home with us, or in the garage with his race car. He wouldnt do anything to take time away from that silly car, so an affair would just never happen!

Sounds like your husband's other woman is his "race car"! Is it an emotional affair or a one night stand. (lol!)

An emotional affair of course. A one night stand wouldn´t make him want to leave me. (Well I would hope not!) A one night stand is like scratching an itch I guess as opposed to emotions. I´m not saying I wouldn´t leave HIM for doing that, just comparing the 2.

I would fear the "emotional" affair also. It is hard for someone to break away from another person whenever thier heart and sould is involved. A "one night stand" is just what it is, a "one night stand". An emotional affair can lead to a divorce.

Ultimately they both lead to divorce - it depends if the affair is found out and how much it affects the relationship. But if one partner meets someone and prefers them to his current partner, the marriage might not have been sufficiently strong in the first place.

I wouldn't want either to happen. But, I think the emotional affair I fear more because, there is more of an attachtment (love). God Bless

An emotional affair can lead to your husband or wife leaving you. I know of a case where two people started out as good friends (male/female). They had a lot in common and talked often on the phone and in e-mails. It was not long before they met for lunch one day, (he traveled six hours to see her), and ended up in bed together. They both knew that it was wrong and tried to break it off, but they became more involved with each other. Now, they are talking about leaving thier spouses so that they can be together. They were both married to abusive people. So, an emotional affair is more dangerous. Sometimes you can't help who you fall in love with.

their can be no question of being afraid with "one night stand" such things do happen in life but the "emotional affair" is a different ball game, a game you are drawn into without realizing you got to play against two.
