I recently found this article online, called “Dating Question: Are You Having an Emotional Affair” and could not help but comment on it. (READ THIS ARTICLE!)I think this article is right on. It doesn’t matter if you’re a teen, college student or married – this article is for you. So often people do not realize they are crossing any lines with the opposite sex because, let’s face it, as people we can justify anything we want.
“He’s/she’s just a friend”
“There’s nothing wrong with a little harmless flirting”
“It’s just talk… there’s nothing more to it.”
“What? I can trust them… I just need someone to talk to…”
For Teens and Singles… this is a valuable article for you in that it helps you see where you may be crossing the line emotionally. Not keeping our words, intentions or emotional attachments in check is dangerous territory. Check out my blog entry called “Abstinence is Wrong” for more on this.
For Married Folk… this is an extremely helpful article for you. Rarely do people intentionally set out to have an affair; they occur over a period of time where we slowly give part of ourselves to someone other than our spouse. REMEMBER – the greatest lessons we teach our children is the one’s we LIVE OUT in front of them. Teach them what it is to love, cherish and honor your spouse (even when they’re not around them).
