The internet represents a society unto itself. It has opened the flood gates to social networking which gave birth to internet affairs. This is now ” The New Normal”.
What do you do with your time on the internet?
Business?
Pleasure? or Both?
What exactly do you do on the internet in the middle of the night?….. Huh?
Working or chatting?
A friend of mine once told me that her husband “friended” her on tinder under an alias. He even started an intense love affair with her and invited her on a date…..Crazy, right?
Social networking has paved way for easy communication between two affair partners. Cheating spouses cunningly sneak behind their partner’s backs like seasoned spies to live their double lives even when they are together.
Adventurous…Isn’t it?
Any form of digital communication seems like an innocent way of chatting.
However…
That’s exactly what makes it dangerous! It looks harmless, but allows for two people of the opposite sex to communicate in private without anyone knowing about it, Right?
You can message them whenever from wherever and never get caught (at least that’s what you think). Your spouse might not know you’re contacting this “friend” and so you feel what he or she doesn’t know won’t hurt, right?
Wrong!
Your spouse might not know but your marriage is slowly sinking like a ship. Do not play with fire!
Digital affairs typically begin in a chat room, allowing users to talk in real-time by typing messages to each other through ” Screen names” or “handles”.
It usually starts with a simple “Hello” to a stranger or an old flame.
Then it gradually gets to “How was your night?” and “Have a beautiful day”.
From “How was your day?” to “I thought of you all day”
….“You really look good” turns into “let’s meet up sometime”.
Then the flirty midnight discussions and VOILA “Texts turns to Sexts”…From “Friends to Lovers”.
What starts off as an innocent chat encounter can quickly escalate into an emotional affair, then onto a real-life affair.
Studies have shown that the more communication occurs, the more likely there is for an actual real-life encounter.
Did you know that the American Academy of Academic Lawyers conducted a survey that exposed the world to the shocking news that 81% of the US top divorce attorneys cite a spike in social networking cheating evidence in their divorce cases?
A UK-based online survey cited that Facebook cheating surfaced in one of every three divorce cases in 2011. Unquestionably believe that which is stated.
Have you caught your wife or husband severally on phone in the middle of the night? and……Did your spouse try to hide the phone?
Hmm…..NOT a good sign.
Should your spouse make friends on social media with the opposite sex?.
Is that even a good idea?
Oh! no, it’s a bad idea because flirting and cheating await your spouse around the corner.
More so, the guy or lady your spouse interacts with may think the green light is being given to them. This could get into their heads and mix things up.
Are you a digital cheating wife or husband?
I won’t judge you or tell you what to do. The temptation is real and everyone is susceptible to flirting with someone outside their marriage but I’ve got great news for you. Digital emotional affairs will more likely doom your marriage than any other form of cheating. Do not risk falling into the temptation to enter into any form of interaction that could arouse you.
So…my point is…
Chatting back-and-forth can do a lot of harm to your relationship? ( if it hasn’t already).
Digital emotional affairs can spin out of control. It gets to a point where you can’t stop thinking about the other person. You just want to hear, see and read anything from them.
Then, you start to justify why you need this person in your life. Once you get to this point, my friend….you”ll burn your home!.
Digital Infidelity will put you in shackles of lies and deceit. Don’t love your chains….free yourself if you love your spouse or your marriage sinks slowly every hour.
Good lesson. Thanks.
You’re welcome.
