Facets of fidelity

'We share everything; know each other better than anyone. We have not embarked on a physical relationship because I am trying to be true to my vows.'

OK, first, you're not being true to your vows. Emotional infidelity is every bit as real as physical infidelity -- perhaps even moreso. Coming from somebody who (to his shame) has committed both, I can tell you right now that opening your heart to another woman is as insidiously damaging to your marriage as opening your pants.
