Society is transforming by leaps and bounds and with it relationships, and also infidelity .

Are you living in an emotional infidelity?
But what is that emotional infidelity ? Do not think that it is a matter of millennials and that it does not suit you, because you can be emotionally unfaithful at any age . It is not something as new as it seems, it is that now at least we can deal with all the issues openly. Emotional infidelity has existed since the world is world, although it is true it has increased with new technologies.
We are very used to considering infidelity as sexual contact with a person who is not our partner; that when we are the unfaithful. Or for our partner to sleep with another person in the event that we are cheated on. But infidelity can still happen without going to bed .
That friend that you have met on Facebook and that you think is incredible . An interesting, attractive and trustworthy man as if he were part of you. You talk to him every day, by chat or by phone and you are even thinking of meeting for a coffee. You are not worried, you are not cheating on your boyfriend because you have no intention of sleeping with him. Your days have taken on color and you live with renewed energy.
The intimacy between you increases every day. You talk to him about things that you wouldn’t think of talking to your partner about and you feel sad if one day you can’t talk . As if you are missing something. In your world there is one more person and that is not bad, it is always good to increase the list of friends but then, why haven’t you told your partner all this ?

+Even if you do not sleep with him, even if you have not seen each other face to face, you feel very close to him , with a complicity that you have never had with anyone.
+You’re at work and you think about him, you’re on the subway and you think about him, you’re in the supermarket and you think about him, you’re in the shower and you think about him … Do you need more signs?
