The patterns of Infidelity:
1.Your spouse will have a very extreme attachment to the other person. Your spouses secrete partner will be on there mind constantly. Your spouse will have less time and energy for you, your children, and the household and for their career, as they shift there focus to the secrete relationship. They will be focused, but not on you. The offender will have a tendency to limit contact with you through avoidance, ignoring you or just refusing to communicate with you.
2. Infidelity typically takes on a long term relationship. It will probably be impossible for the offender to simply walk away from the relationship. They may even take on the task of cutting off there infidelity on their own, they will typically fail and wonder back into the relationship. Typically your spouse will be steadfast in their relationship. Chances are this is your spouse’s only or first affair. In this relationship your spouse is not looking for some simple fun, your spouse is extremely emotionally attached to the relationship. They may even feel this relationship is their salvation!
3. The infidelity more than likely was not planned prior to as a result of marital problems. Affairs like these just happen. They typically happen with an individually in easy proximity: friend, neighbor, fellow work acquaintance (friends you often socialize with), etc. The aggressor is typically the other person; chances are your spouse lacks enough confidence to have started the affair. Your spouse rationalizes that the affair happened do to a lousy marriage after the affair has already bloomed.
4. The harder you try to plead, pursue or convince, the stronger they will grasp onto the relationship with the other person. They will perceive your plea as weakness, as a result they will want to hold on with more conviction to the person whom they (at perhaps an unconscious level) deem as being magnificent, and loving.
5. Attempting to use religious and morel arguments to forestall the affair will be fiercely resisted. Your spouse’s thought process is not geared to right or wrong. The process of right and wrong holds no weight with regard to what you spouse perceives, as the important pieces of their life. Your spouses, attachment to the other person is dictating your spouse’s thoughts and actions. Your spouse will maintain their relationship and justify any behavior or concept to achieve that. They will discard those around.
6. Anticipate spending 2 to 4 years (doubly true if children are involved) of emotional energy, time and resources in an attempt to resolve the marriage. This means simply reaching a point at which each partner is somewhat free of the emotional entanglement which as been the culprit of the emotional rollercoaster ride dominating the relationship while the partner has carried on the affair. It is imperative that you resolve your current relationship whether you divorce, separate or work to repair the marriage. By not reaching a resolution you can not start the healing process.
