Relationship Reality: How to Avoid an Affair

28. June 2009 by admin.

Another politician’s marriage bites the dust.

Why is it that politicians seem to struggle so much with keeping faithful? It probably has something to do with the power, the title, or all the people they come in contact. In the course of life, inevitably we’re going to meet people we’re attracted to. So how can we remain committed to our marriage? Especially after years of marriage when the relationship has cooled and the newness gone? 

A simple tip: when you’re talking to someone you find yourself attracted to or who is attracted to you, talk about your spouse. Compliment him/her in the presence of this other person. It’ll help you remain focused on your spouse and remind you of the wonderful attributes your spouse possesses.  It’ll also remind the person you’re speaking with that you are married, and that should help keep the conversation platonic.
