Should I Fight My Wife's Emotional Affair With Logic?

Описание: Our Marriage Helper Live caller from Canada asks: “My wife denies her emotional affair- how do I get her to realize what she’s doing?”

Dr. Joe Beam explains that you cannot combat emotions with logic, emotions win every time. Emotions are powerful. Therefore, trying to “convince” his wife that she’s in an emotional affair is probably not going to work.

Still, Dr. Joe Beam assures this caller that he is doing the right things! This caller stills lives in the same house as his wife. Here at Marriage Helper, we’ve learned that when people separate, it becomes more difficult for them to put the marriage back together. Even if you're separated, you CAN save your marriage! We just don't recommend it. Marriage Helper only recommends separation if someone is in danger- separating in order to ensure that you or your children are safe.

Dr. Joe Beam also encourages this caller to remain patient. Time is on his side. The fact that this caller’s wife has an emotional connection for 2 years means that limerence is (most likely) nearing the end. Limerence lasts somewhere between 3 months and 48 months.

Our encouragement to those watching is this: It is to your advantage to be patient, to be in the same house as time passes, to maintain living together without extreme disagreements. If you can handle it a while longer, that is to your ADVANTAGE (and even the advantage of your children if you have them).

If you’re looking for more step by step tools and resources to help you during this time, please give us a call! We'd love to encourage you, give you hope, and teach you how you can save your marriage.
