Do you fear that cheating will end your marriage? There are other threats to your marriage that are probably more likely. Words can deeply erode trust, security, and respect long before an affair happens, if it ever does. Certain conversations that you have with your spouse reveal deeper problems in your marriage, like resentment, control, contempt, or financial betrayal. What’s said in anger, or not said at all, is a greater danger to the stability of your marriage. If you find yourself having one of these conversations, it’s time to work on healing.
