Emotional Affairs

While getting ready this morning, CBS News reported on Madonna and A-Rods alleged affair. The catch line was...Emotional Affairs: Worse than Physical Affairs? This got me to thinking back. I always use to tell my ex that I'd much rather have dealt with a boyfriend who was having sex with a bunch of different girls than one who had one consistant girl that he kept having sex with and talked on the phone with. In a long distance relationship all you have is your conversation (maybe a few pics and videos in between) but at the end of the day its all about the emotional connection and not the physical one. If you are building an emotional connection with someone else that you are physically attracted to, what is the difference between that...and us? So of course I'd rather not have a cheating boyfriend, but if I had to pick, I think I still might choose the hoe over the housewife - contextually that is.
