I don’t have the words phrased quite right in my head, but dear I hope you still know what I mean when I speak.
I don’t mean to be confusing but what can I do when the words won’t come out right. Oh darling bear with me. Maybe one day I will learn to speak right.
And if that day don’t come, know that I love you truly, madly deeply. I need you with me. I wish i could tell you all that I feel but the words never come out right.
Extramarital affairs are in its nature secretive, something that widely remains unspoken about. It is considered shameful and immoral, yet research shows that 60% of men and 40% of women will have an affair at some point in their marriage usually because of strained relationships with their spouses. Generally the opinion is just because you are having problems with your partner, it does not make it right for you to be having an affair.
But how wrong is it when the marriage is a sham? When, except for the fact that you are legally married, there is really no marriage at all? You and your partner happen to live under the same roof, but there is no form of communication between you at all. Forget about sharing the same bed, you don’t even speak or stay in the same room together. If such is the status of one’s marriage is it wrong to enter into an illicit relationship? Heck should it even be called an illicit relationship? Is it not natural to want to crave a form of relationship? This is what logic tells me but somewhere inside me I can’t help feeling that this is not completely right. If the person still finds the need to hide it from everyone, does it make it wrong? Shameful? Or is it justified? I don’t know.
