The Most Common Places Affairs Start (It’s Not What You Think!)

If you’re looking for a divorce attorney in West New York, there’s a good chance this significant life change started with an affair. Adultery is one of the most common causes of divorce seen at the Law Offices of Jeffrey M. Bloom, and often the most damaging affairs are ones that go on for months or years (not those one-night mistakes). A lot of people think they know where affairs are most likely to start. Sometimes they’re right, but according to statistics, sometimes affairs start in the strangest of places.

The Top 5 Places Affairs Start

The American Association for Marriage and Family Therapy released survey results that showed 25 percent of men and 15 percent of women will have a “full-blown affair” outside of their marriage. Increase that percentage by 20 percent for both sexes if you count a non-sexual, emotional affair. Surprisingly, these full-blown affairs almost never start at a bar or club. Instead, they usually begin in much more wholesome environments: The workplace. The workplace is where most affairs begin. It doesn’t hurt that we usually dress nicely and are on “good behavior” at work. Plus, having shared passions about projects (or mutual annoyance at a boss or co-worker) provides the perfect breeding ground for an affair. The gym. You already have endorphins rushing and a lot of attention paid to your body at the gym. However, instead of gym-goers having affairs with each other, the more common circumstance is a client and a personal trainer. This relationship is based on literal and emotional support, providing the makings for an affair. Social media. This one is no surprise—but what is so surprising is that it only ranks third on the list. Still, it’s likely not a stranger on social media that sparks an affair. Old flames and crushes can kickstart fantasies about “what if” lives, and it doesn’t take much to take a social media flirtation to the next level. Bonding over a shared commitment to a common cause and seeing a person being selfless can quickly stir up the ingredients for an affair. Surprisingly, church is a very common place to begin an affair. There’s a sense of intimacy between church leaders and members of the congregation. It’s common to be open about issues like marriage troubles or seek out comfort in this space. Whether adultery is part of your reason for divorce or not, you need an expert divorce attorney working for you. Contact the Law Offices of Jeffrey M. Bloom today and get the support you really need.

What are the three C's of dating?

A strong and healthy relationship is built on the three C's: Communication, Compromise and Commitment.

acispecialtybenefits.com - Three C's for Happy Couples - ACI Specialty Benefits

February may be the month of love, but it takes more than chocolates, flowers and dinner dates to make a relationship work. A strong and healthy relationship is built on the three C’s: Communication, Compromise and Commitment. Whether starting a new relationship or celebrating decades of marriage, here is a refresher course in the three C’s:

Communication

Think about how to use communication to make your partner feel needed, desired and appreciated. Communication is verbal and non-verbal, so actions speak volumes, and remember that listening is a major component of healthy communication. It’s not always what is said, but how it is said, that’s important. If a couple communicates with aggression, the silent treatment or abusive language or actions, it signals concerns that might best be addressed by a professional.

Compromise

Two people in a relationship bring individual experiences, thoughts, behaviors and personalities to the table. Finding common ground means expressing opinions, understanding and accepting differences and agreeing on compromise. If both people feel heard and understood, it helps prevent one person from feeling like they’re giving in, which can build resentment over time.

Commitment

Commitment means putting each other and the relationship first. This requires a lot of giving, and certainly some sacrifice, but the payoff is a relationship that brings true joy and fulfillment to each other’s lives. Knowing that each person is committed to working through challenges and growing together builds trust and intimacy, and helps release the fears and doubts that hold couples back. Relationships can be challenging, and can take a toll on mental, emotional and physical health, mood, or even focus at work. For help with any relationship or personal concern, contact your Employee Assistance Program (EAP) provided by ACI Specialty Benefits at 800.932.0034 or eapinfo@acispecialtybenefits.com.
