Which one would hurt you more: physical or emotional cheating?
I'm trying to understand something about how different people process infidelity. So this is regardless of whether you have been in this situation or not, it's about how you'd feel if you were.
I'll start (38f): I think I would be more hurt by emotional cheating. But counterintuitively, more likely to be able to forgive that over physical. The image of my partner with someone else would make me feel disgusted every time I look at him – this sort of physical reaction is very difficult to get over. But I would be much more heartbroken if I knew he loved someone else when in a relationship with me.
