Ten Symptoms of a Preadultery Condition
- Sharing private matters with a person of the opposite sex before sharing them with your spouse.
- Spending inordinate amounts of time with this person.
- Finding more delight in being with this person than with your spouse.
- Thinking this person understands you better than your spouse.
- Being unwilling to hear the warnings of others and stubbornly maintaining this platonic relationship.
- Feeling youthful or "high" around this person.
- Developing romantic feelings for this person that you try to transfer to your spouse.
- Being defensive when you try to keep from admitting you are into something wrong. Instead, you accuse others of attacking you when they are really trying to warn you.
- Looking for opportunities to be with this person, away from the scrutiny of others.
- Finding reason to avoid the wise counsel of friends while accepting the unwise counsel of fools.
