Category: The False Power of an Affair
Falling in love is thrilling, and few human events measure up to the ecstasy and passion of a new found affection. The problem, of course, is how an affair will repair an already bad existing relationship or marriage. A faulty marriage is agonizing and makes the victims of it feel helpless and empty. Into this barrenness can then come a love that cancels out despair and hopelessness. But the validation of feeling worthy and loveable is usually short-lived. Men and women whom I have treated in the midst of an affair realize too well the destructive end of it from the beginning, and terminating an affair is far worse than coming to grips with the damaged relationship that gives rise to the affair. In short, an affair is a lousy way of feeling loveable. Future posts will focus on how affairs should be avoided and how men and women can extract themselves from a whirlwind affair.
