Dear S.Q. I’ve had affairs for 10 years after my wife stopped sex. Not sure if our marriage will survive but I’m committed to try. No affairs I understand, but what the hell is “emotional cheating?” Give me an easy list, because apparently I’m dumb.

Dear Husband, “emotional cheating” is subtle but slashes your heart just like a physical affair. BTW, playing dumb is not going to win you points.

Here is the top No-No list of
