Infidelity

Reader Post: 'I've never been comfortable around people judging other people's relationships. I am a woman whom I've been told is judged by other women. As these women generally don't know me well, it's been disturbing as I percieve myself to be a very good person, but I have had relationships outside my marriage. Why? My husband isn't around much and it's not sex I seek out, but emotional intimacy. I want to know someone is there for me, because we all need to know someone cares.

I've been married 23 years, love my husband, but he doesn't know how to show up for me very well. Believe me I've tried, cried and nearly went crazy trying to get my emotional needs met from him. It drives him crazy too. I have an emotional nature that needs to be engaged, so enough said... that's why some women are not entirely monogamous... sigh..'
