You’ve been seeing him for a while now. He tells you all the right things, makes you feel appreciated, but you know he’s married. You try to ignore that little voice inside warning you that it’s wrong....CONTINUE READING
But what about the consequences for your spirit? This affair may satisfy your short-term desires, but it can wound your soul in ways that will haunt you. Your actions don’t just affect you and him – they have a spiritual ripple effect.
The Emotional Toll of Being The “Other Woman”
Falling for a married man often seems exciting and romantic at first. But soon, the reality sets in, and you realize you’re the “other woman”-the one he’s cheating with. This role inevitably takes an emotional toll.
You may feel guilty for enabling him to betray his spouse’s trust and commitment. There is also shame in knowing your relationship is a secret that would devastate others if discovered. These negative feelings can weigh heavily on your conscience and self-esteem.
As the other woman, you always come second to his spouse and family. You have to share him and settle for stolen moments. This fosters jealousy, insecurity, and the anxiety that he may leave you at any time to avoid disrupting his marriage.
Since the relationship is illicit, you have to hide it from friends and family and endure their questions about why you’re still single.
The secrecy and deception required lead to feelings of loneliness, isolation, and even self-loathing for compromising your values. It’s definitely not good for your mental health or spiritual growth. In fact, it could really do more harm than good.
Creating Bad Karma And Negative Energy
When you sleep with a married man, you open yourself up to some seriously “bad juju.” Not only are you enabling the man to break his marriage vows, but you’re also hurting his wife and family in the process.
The negative energy from an affair will likely come back to you in some form down the road. The whole situation is just not good for anybody. What goes around comes around, doesn’t it?
The healthiest choice is to end the affair, learn from your mistakes, and work to redeem yourself going forward. Letting go of this toxic relationship will open you up to new beginnings and second chances. It’s just not worth testing your luck or karma – your health and long-term happiness shouldn’t be put at risk like that.
Damaging Your Self-Worth And Self-Respect
Getting involved with a married man can really do a number on your self-worth. You might start to think that you don’t deserve an honest, loyal relationship of your own. If you’re accepting only scraps of attention and having to sneak around with someone else’s partner, it’s easy to feel bad about yourself.
It’s like the Law of Attraction saying goes – you attract what you think you deserve. If being the other woman makes you feel unlovable, then that’s the vibe you’ll put out there.
And unfortunately, the universe has a way of reflecting back what you feel deep down. So you’ll just keep meeting people who reinforce that same belief that you don’t deserve real love.
Damage To Spiritual Integrity
Sleeping with a married man is just not good for your soul or how you feel about yourself. Carrying on a secret relationship with someone else’s husband usually leaves you feeling super guilty and ashamed.
You might feel bad about betraying another woman and breaking up her marriage or family. The shame comes from knowing deep down that what you’re doing goes against your principles and values. Those negative emotions can weigh really heavy on your conscience and self-esteem.
When you go against your morals to be with a married man, it’s hard to maintain self-respect. You may start to think you don’t deserve a partner who’s truly available and committed just to you.
The longer the affair drags on, the more your own needs and worth get pushed aside. Continually neglecting yourself and having blurred boundaries is really damaging to your spiritual and mental health.
And what’s more, if you are even in love with the married man, you are putting on rose-colored glasses spiritually speaking. You’re so crazy about him or stressed about people finding out that you ignore all the signs from the universe.
Either the thrill of it or the worry just makes you oblivious to what the universe is trying tell you. You won’t progress on your spiritual journey like this.
Interference With Spiritual Growth
Having an affair is no good. You have to lie and sneak around all the time, betraying people’s trust. That goes against how most people want to live their lives. It really messes with your head, too, ignoring your conscience to keep things going. You’ll start to lose your own values over time.
Also, being the “other woman” means settling for less than you deserve in a relationship. The guy doesn’t really respect you and treats you as secondary. That really damages your self-esteem and confidence. Deep down you know you need to leave but it’s tough to find the strength.
With something like that, you can’t really experience true love and all the good parts of it. Your personal growth is stuck, too. Since you have to keep everything private and secret, you can’t fully be yourself or progress spiritually.
You’ve Got A Big Choice To Make
You need to listen to your gut and do what feels right for you deep down. But most importantly – make sure you feel strong first before doing anything. This affair could turn into something good if you take some time to reflect on yourself.
I know it’s not easy, but if you can possibly swing it, it’s best to stop fooling around with that married man. He’s got a wife, maybe even kids at home. And like they say, what goes around comes around. As hard as it is, keeping up the affair won’t come without consequences..<<CONTINUE READING>>
