Types of Affairs

This week in class we talked about affairs in my Family Relations class. Did you guys know that 21% of men and 14% of women have affairs? And there are different types of affairs as well.

4 Types of Affairs

Fantasy: emotional affair with someone who doesn't even know what is going on. For example, imaginine your life with someone else other than your spouse.

Visual: this consists of pornography, movies or books. For example, thinking that William Levi is super hot and you have tons of pictures of him on your computer etc.

Romantic: becoming emotionally involved/ attached with a specific person.

Sexual: engages in sexual acts outside the bonds of marriage with or without emotional attachement.

We also talkked about way that we can prevent marital infidelity.

Preventing Marital Infidelity

Setting boundaries, being on guard
Being fiercely loyal to your spouse
Controlling thoughts

I had learn previously how damaging an affair can be to a family. I know that it distroys families, I mean it id destroyed my family. But I'm so grateful for a husband who constantly strives to be failthful to me and that I have committed to be faithful to him forever. I know that these things can be controlled and prevent much heartache. I hope this helped you gain a little more knowledge about the importance of our choices.
