margin-top: 18px; color: #333333; font-family: \'Avenir Next\', Arial, \'Helvetica Neue\', Helvetica, sans-serif; background-color: #ffffff;\">\r\n<div id=\"article-content\">\r\n<p style=\"margin: 0px 0px 1em; padding: 0px; line-height: 1.5em;\">Many wives would love to know what the other woman is thinking once the affair is over. Many assume that the other woman was smug about taking a man from his family and felt indifferent to the idea that she was potentially breaking up a family. Many wives envision women who set out to tempt married men away from their homes.</p>\r\n<p style=\"margin: 0px 0px 1em; padding: 0px; line-height: 1.5em;\">These wives might say something like, \"I\'ve never seen the woman my husband cheated with. I know that she is somewhat younger. I picture her as smug and conniving. My husband said that he didn\'t hide the fact that he was married, but apparently, this didn\'t bother her at all. In fact, my husband finally confessed that she almost saw it as a challenge - to get a resistant man to cheat. When I started to suspect the affair, he tried to break it off, but she tried very hard not to allow this to happen. I don\'t really want to talk to her or seek her out, but I have to admit that I wonder what she thinks about all of this. I am wondering if she feels all triumphant because she finally wore down a married man and has potentially destroyed a family. There is nothing that I can do about this. It\'s not as if I have the ability to make her sorry or anything. But for my own curiosity, I just wonder how smug she is feeling right now. Is smugness common of all women who cheat with men who are already spoken for?\"</p>\r\n<p style=\"margin: 0px 0px 1em; padding: 0px; line-height: 1.5em;\">Honestly, it varies. Just as the personality and the motivations of all of us are different, the same is true of women in this situation. I sometimes hear from them and some are actually pretty remorseful. Some didn\'t intend to begin the relationship. On the flip side of the coin, some just didn\'t take the relationship all that seriously. They were just looking for a meaningless diversion and so they don\'t have any strong feelings one way or another. And yes, there are those women who see it as a challenge or a game to tempt or cheat with married men. And these are the woman who can feel like they\'ve won a prize when they get him to cheat and who feel like they have lost something when the affair ends.</p>\r\n<p style=\"margin: 0px 0px 1em; padding: 0px; line-height: 1.5em;\">I understand why you want this information. I used to have the same types of questions after my own husband\'s infidelity. But I will tell you an unfortunate secret. What the other woman thought or felt is truly irrelevant to your bottom line. Thinking about her or dwelling on her is not in your best interest. Neither is fantasizing about revenge. Frankly, the best revenge possible is moving on with your life and reestablishing your own happiness - however that may come and whatever that might look like.</p>\r\n<p style=\"margin: 0px 0px 1em; padding: 0px; line-height: 1.5em;\">I know that it might seem very easy for me to suggest that you try to put her out of your life and move on. But I say this because it\'s a lesson that I learned. The more you prolong thoughts about her, the more you prolong the pain and your own healing. It\'s pretty easy to wallow in misery and depressing thoughts post-affair, but all this does is hurt you more and for a greater period of time. The sooner you can distract yourself with working on yourself and with moving forward, the sooner you can put her out of your mind. When you do this, it makes it easier and quicker to heal, which should truly be your goal.</p>\r\n<p style=\"margin: 0px 0px 1em; padding: 0px; line-height: 1.5em;\">I know that it\'s very painful to suspect that the other woman felt like she \"won\" or that she beat you by turning your husband\'s head. But think about it for a second. What did she win, really? She had a fast and meaningless relationship with a man who already belonged to someone else. She had zero chance at a lasting relationship because he tried to end it when there was a danger of you finding out. That had to sting instead of feeling triumphant. The truth is, most of the time, the affair ends eventually. Yes, it may feel great for all involved for a short period of time. But it almost never ends well. And when it does end, both parties have to face the reality of what they have done and accept responsibility for it. In reality, they are looking at a failed, doomed, and shameful relationship. And honestly, that can\'t feel too great. In fact, it can feel like regret, fear, and guilt. None of these emotions feel particularly triumphant.</p>\r\n</div>\r\n</div>');

margin-top: 18px; color: #333333; font-family: \'Avenir Next\', Arial, \'Helvetica Neue\', Helvetica, sans-serif; background-color: #ffffff;\">\r\n<div id=\"article-content\">\r\n<p style=\"margin: 0px 0px 1em; padding: 0px; line-height: 1.5em;\">Understandably, many wives dealing with the overwhelming reality of an affair want their husbands out of their sight immediately. They don\'t want to look at him. They don\'t want to hear his excuses. They just don\'t want him anywhere near their personal space, so they ask him to leave. In the days after this, many husbands will desperately try to call or come over, but many wives reject these overtures. Some people may call this an overreaction, but if you\'ve ever dealt with infidelity, you probably understand.</p>\r\n<p style=\"margin: 0px 0px 1em; padding: 0px; line-height: 1.5em;\">A wife might say, \"I know that is a totally a stereotype, but when I found out about my husband\'s cheating, I threw his belongings out of the house and I refused to let him in. I told him that I couldn\'t care less where he was going. The next day, he called me. I did not answer. He kept right on calling, so I picked up and I told him that he was wasting his time and that I did not have anything to say to him. As days went by, he started coming by my office in an attempt to talk to me. I had my staff tell him that I was busy. In short, I have thwarted every single attempt that he has made to speak to or communicate with me. I had nothing to say. None of his excuses were going to make any difference. He has long been aware that infidelity is a deal breaker for me and I\'ve always been very firm on that. I\'m not going to backtrack now. So I haven\'t spoken to him in weeks. One of our mutual friends ran into my husband at a bar. The friend said my husband was unkempt and a mess. My husband mentioned that his father was in the hospital due to a stroke. My heart is sinking because now I feel like that could have been what my husband was trying to communicate with me when I was refusing to see him. I am close to my husband\'s sister - although I haven\'t spoken to her, either. Now, my heart hurts for both my husband and my sister-in-law. I would not mind being supportive of both of them, but I\'m worried that my husband might get mixed signals with this. I still care about my husband and I want to be there for his family. But I still don\'t want my marriage right now. I realize now that I was wrong to just abruptly cut him out of my life. But at the same time, I have no idea what type of relationship I can offer him going forward. I\'m still very angry, but I still feel like we are family to an extent. And I know that if anything happened to my parents, he would be there for me. How do I let him know that I\'m willing to be there for him without making a commitment toward our marriage?\"</p>\r\n<p style=\"margin: 0px 0px 1em; padding: 0px; line-height: 1.5em;\">I think it\'s admirable for you to care in this way. And I don\'t think that there is anything wrong with calling your husband and saying something like, \"I heard about your dad and I am sorry. Is there anything that I can do for you or your sister? I\'m here if you want to talk.\" And then let him take it from there. He may take you up on your offer to talk. He likely has enough to handle with his father that he won\'t overstep and try to bring up the topic to your marriage.</p>\r\n<p style=\"margin: 0px 0px 1em; padding: 0px; line-height: 1.5em;\">You can certainly listen if he wants to talk and help with anything that he and your sister-in-law might need. It\'s just natural to want to be there for someone who has been your family for so long. Even if you are angry with him for his mistake, there is no negating what you have been to each other for many years.</p>\r\n<p style=\"margin: 0px 0px 1em; padding: 0px; line-height: 1.5em;\">I think that at this point, all you can do is reach out to him and see how he responds. Since he\'s been making such a huge effort to communicate with you, I can\'t imagine that he will not be receptive. If he begins to push about your marriage, you can always say, \"my focus right now is being there for your dad and sister. This is not the time to focus on our marriage. I want to support you and your family right now. I don\'t want to talk about or make any decisions about our marriage. Let\'s just focus on your dad.\"</p>\r\n<p style=\"margin: 0px 0px 1em; padding: 0px; line-height: 1.5em;\">Just take things one step at a time. You may feel now that cutting him out of your life was dramatic, but so many people have the exact same reaction. An affair is a huge betrayal. Most people have a reaction that is also huge. Reaching out to your husband may help both of you to calm down a little. And it doesn\'t have to mean that you\'ve forgiven him or that you want to get back together. It can just mean that he was very important to you for many years and, because of that relationship, you want to be there for him right now. There is nothing wrong with that. One mistake does not erase your history and there\'s nothing wrong with respecting that history.</p>\r\n</div>\r\n</div>');

margin-top: 18px; color: #333333; font-family: \'Avenir Next\', Arial, \'Helvetica Neue\', Helvetica, sans-serif; background-color: #ffffff;\">\r\n<div id=\"article-content\">\r\n<p style=\"margin: 0px 0px 1em; padding: 0px; line-height: 1.5em;\">Many wives who are dealing with infidelity understandably want the complete truth about every single, tiny detail of their husband\'s life and thoughts. It might seem like overkill to some, but when you\'ve been betrayed and fooled by a spiderweb of lies, then it can get to a point where you\'ll only tolerate 100% of the truth at all times. This can include the mundane details of everyday life - and those little things that most would consider not important. Under this lens, many wives find that their husbands are still floating untruths, no matter how small. Understandably, this can get a wife\'s suspicions up even when it\'s possible that there is nothing amiss.</p>\r\n<p style=\"margin: 0px 0px 1em; padding: 0px; line-height: 1.5em;\">She might say, \"I used to kind of shrug and sometimes laugh when my husband would downplay certain things or tell little white lies. For the most part, this was harmless. For example, he might lie on how much money he spent or when he last called his sister or mother. He might downplay how much time he spent at a bar or silly things like that. These are harmless things. But, since his affair, even small things like this are intolerable to me and it\'s becoming a much bigger problem. I am now extremely sensitive to lies because his lying is what allowed him to successfully carry out his affair. It\'s also why I did not suspect him until the affair had become a real problem. We fought an awful lot about his lying about or omitting details about the affair. I fought hard for the truth. I stressed that I could not move on until I felt that he had told me everything. So, little bits of additional information seeped out. I thought that once this was behind us, he would have learned that he needed to tell the truth. And yet, I still catch him in little white lies. He\'ll tell me that he ate lunch at a certain place and come to find out, he ate somewhere else. Or he will mix up the order that he did things. When I confront him, he gets defensive and says that he misspoke and that it\'s impossible to accurately account for every single second of his day. He told me that I should try it if I think that it\'s so easy. Honestly, I know where I\'ve eaten. Accurately. Every time. I admit that my husband can be scatterbrained at times. But I would think if he knows that honesty is important to me, he would make more of an effort. Am I wrong about this? To me, especially now, accuracy is vital. I have no patience for even small lies. Am I overreacting?\"</p>\r\n<p style=\"margin: 0px 0px 1em; padding: 0px; line-height: 1.5em;\">I don\'t think that you are. What you are going through is normal. I reacted in the same way. But I did find something interesting, at least in my own case. Sometimes, a mistake is just a mistake. For example, in the early stages of our recovery, I thought it was such a huge deal every time my husband misspoke. I thought that it was potentially catastrophic every time that he was late. He insisted that he was being truthful and sincere. And now, years later, I can look back and I can see that he was indeed telling me the truth. Because in the years since that time, he has done exactly what he claimed. But at the time, when things were so fresh that I assumed that every small suspicion meant for sure that he might be cheating again. And these suspicions meant that I absolutely could not be objective. So in my case, I saw problems where none existed. That said, a friend of mine assumed the best of her husband and he cheated again. So you just never know. My strategy became that the benefit of the doubt would be given until it didn\'t make sense to do that anymore. If too many things are suspicious, well then, it\'s prudent to pay attention. But if someone just misspeaks every once in a while and otherwise their behavior is sound, then that can be normal.</p>\r\n<p style=\"margin: 0px 0px 1em; padding: 0px; line-height: 1.5em;\">Honestly, one of the best things to try in this situation is to have a counselor ask your husband about inconsistencies. That way, you don\'t have to be the bad guy and you don\'t have to feed into your paranoia and suspicions. If your husband rejects counseling, try self-help that lists concrete questions to ask. Have your husband write out the answers so that this way, he is accountable for them. If what he claims turns out to be not true, you have a written record of it. But if he\'s telling the truth, you don\'t need to revisit it.</p>\r\n<p style=\"margin: 0px 0px 1em; padding: 0px; line-height: 1.5em;\">There is nothing wrong with insisting on complete transparency and truth after an affair. Both are necessary. If he\'s lying consistently and about important things, that can be concerning. But if he\'s just misspeaking about innocent things when you\'re trying to \"catch him\" at every turn, then that can be more innocent. It\'s usually the combination of his untruths and his behavior that is the most concerning. Some men aren\'t great with details, but they show their loyalty consistently and they do everything that you ask of them. This distinction can be important.</p>\r\n</div>\r\n</div>');

margin-top: 18px; color: #333333; font-family: \'Avenir Next\', Arial, \'Helvetica Neue\', Helvetica, sans-serif; background-color: #ffffff;\">\r\n<div id=\"article-content\">\r\n<p style=\"margin: 0px 0px 1em; padding: 0px; line-height: 1.5em;\">Men have an affair to stay in a relationship, whilst women have an affair to leave a relationship; this is one idea that I\'ve been pondering in recent months. I\'m not sure if it\'s entirely true, but there is some truth to it.</p>\r\n<p style=\"margin: 0px 0px 1em; padding: 0px; line-height: 1.5em;\">I don\'t usually like to talk about affairs. It gives energy to something detestable, but the fact is infidelity happens. Having felt the sting of being cheated on many years ago, I know how much the trauma becomes part of your story. I sincerely hope I never ever fall into marital infidelity or feel its sting on the receiving side ever again. Of course, like anything, there is more wisdom in never discounting the possibility versus saying it will never happen to me.</p>\r\n<p style=\"margin: 0px 0px 1em; padding: 0px; line-height: 1.5em;\">One of the terms I loved in AA was the acronym Y.E.T., meaning \'You\'re Eligible Too!\' In other words,&nbsp;<em>it can happen</em>&nbsp;to me and you.</p>\r\n<p style=\"margin: 0px 0px 1em; padding: 0px; line-height: 1.5em;\">It is wise to never discount that we could become addicted to something (if we\'ve never been addicted before), we\'ll never face depression (if we\'ve never had depression before), we\'ll never face divorce (if we\'ve never been divorced), or we\'ll never be affected by marital infidelity (if neither we nor our partner has had an affair before). These \'Y.E.T.s\' have all happened to me, though at some time or other I never thought they would. They can happen to anyone. It is best to arrange our wisdom in such a way as to be alert, to ward against all possibilities of evil happening. Anything&nbsp;<strong><em>can</em></strong>&nbsp;happen.</p>\r\n<p style=\"margin: 0px 0px 1em; padding: 0px; line-height: 1.5em;\">When I think about the flow of romance within a relationship, time and again I\'ve seen the folly in a relationship predicated on physical attractiveness. People seem happy to jump into bed with one another, never considering the baggage that they each carry; like,&nbsp;<strong>who</strong>&nbsp;are they actually yoking themselves with?</p>\r\n<p style=\"margin: 0px 0px 1em; padding: 0px; line-height: 1.5em;\">The \'who\' is almost certainly someone you have no idea about...</p>\r\n<p style=\"margin: 0px 0px 1em; padding: 0px; line-height: 1.5em;\">... even if you think you know them, you probably don\'t.</p>\r\n<p style=\"margin: 0px 0px 1em; padding: 0px; line-height: 1.5em;\">You truly have little idea who you are dealing with for at least six months, and up to two years. A lot of relational commitment can be pledged in such a short period of time. Isn\'t it madness that we make such commitments to people we really don\'t know yet. And still, we all tend to do it. Shudder to think how many children are involved in partnerships brokered on shaky ground.</p>\r\n<p style=\"margin: 0px 0px 1em; padding: 0px; line-height: 1.5em;\">But it isn\'t just the \'who\' that is of major consequence. Have an affair and you hurt your partner irrevocably. Sure, they may forgive you, but it damages the fabric of the relationship for years, and in some cases for a lifetime. It\'s also not just the betrayal of our partner. Where there are kids involved, each of the children are betrayed, also, and they are set a lamentable example. And then there\'s the parents, and other family, some of whom are at times involved - either by implication or by their angry denunciation that sends families into relational freefall.</p>\r\n<p style=\"margin: 0px 0px 1em; padding: 0px; line-height: 1.5em;\">Relationships founded on hot affection are not grounded on the rock-solid fundamentals that secure the relationship on the firm footings of sustainability. At least when we court well, (and I\'m not talking affairs here), resisting all urges to sleep with one other, there is the opportunity to talk about and work on trust and respect, love and hope, and what our individual and collective dreams and desires are, to see if we are truly matched. Only in the fullness of time, and we\'re talking preferably a year or more, are we truly positioned to decide with any godly wisdom.</p>\r\n</div>\r\n</div>');

margin-top: 18px; color: #333333; font-family: \'Avenir Next\', Arial, \'Helvetica Neue\', Helvetica, sans-serif; background-color: #ffffff;\">\r\n<div id=\"article-content\">\r\n<p style=\"margin: 0px 0px 1em; padding: 0px; line-height: 1.5em;\">I sometimes hear from wives who are afraid that, now that the affair is over, the other woman is going to try to contact the wife or the husband. Of course, the wife usually hopes that the other woman will just gracefully go away. But unfortunately, this is not always the case. Many wives want nothing whatsoever to do with any unwanted communication from her. But that doesn\'t stop her from trying to reach out.</p>\r\n<p style=\"margin: 0px 0px 1em; padding: 0px; line-height: 1.5em;\">A wife might say, \"How common is it for the mistress or other woman to want to communicate after the affair? Yesterday, an unrecognized number called our home phone. The person who called had a blocked caller ID. I did not pick it up, but now I\'m paranoid that it was the other woman trying to call us. My husband said that he was very clear that there was to be no contact when he broke it off. But will she listen? I have nothing to say to her, even though some of my friends say that I should hear her out. And I certainly don\'t want her speaking to my husband. How likely was this call to be from her? Am I just being paranoid?\"</p>\r\n<p style=\"margin: 0px 0px 1em; padding: 0px; line-height: 1.5em;\"><strong>Her Reaction Depends On Whether She Was Prepared For The Affair To End:</strong>&nbsp;I don\'t think that you are being paranoid. You may have tried to Google statistics on this, only to see that there really aren\'t too many out there. But in my own experience and observation, it really does depend on the situation and on how the affair ended. It also tends to depend upon how invested the other woman was in the relationship. In general, the more warning of the affair\'s end that comes beforehand, the more time both people have to get used to the idea and the less likely she is to try to call or contact either spouse. Additionally, the more invested she was in the relationship, the more likely she is to have a hard time letting go and walking away.</p>\r\n<p style=\"margin: 0px 0px 1em; padding: 0px; line-height: 1.5em;\">Sometimes, though, the other woman herself is married and she herself has a family. In these cases, she usually has no interest in the wife or the other family. The reason is because she never intended to leave her own family. She didn\'t want anything permanent with the husband and now that the affair is found out, the last thing that she wants to do is to open the door to her own family being further jeopardized. So she\'s more than happy to move on as quickly as possible. And this is the best case scenario, but not every wife is so lucky.</p>\r\n<p style=\"margin: 0px 0px 1em; padding: 0px; line-height: 1.5em;\"><strong>Consider Just Waiting For Now:</strong>&nbsp;If you are not sure which category your situation might fall into, I honestly would do nothing for right now. I would not invite any drama. If the phone calls persist, then I would try to look up the number online, if possible. I honestly never pick up unidentified or strange calls because anyone who truly knows me or has business with me has my cell phone number or email. If it\'s truly important enough that they need to get in touch with me, they would know how to do it. And they would also leave a message. I\'d suspect that the same is true of you, so I would not worry about the call too much.</p>\r\n<p style=\"margin: 0px 0px 1em; padding: 0px; line-height: 1.5em;\">As far as your friends saying that you might want to talk to her, I disagree with that, but this is only one person\'s opinion. Remember above when I said that the mistresses or \"other women\" who are most likely to try to call are those who don\'t want to let the affair go? Well, those are also the women who are going to try to manipulate you when they talk to you. They aren\'t going to be honest with you because they have their own agenda. Many wives agree to talk to them in order to gain information or insights, but you\'d better believe that any information that they give you is going to be slanted to their benefit. They have no reason to want to be honest with you. Because their motivation for calling you in the first place is probably to push forward their own wishes.</p>\r\n<p style=\"margin: 0px 0px 1em; padding: 0px; line-height: 1.5em;\">As long as your husband was clear that it\'s truly over and he wants no contact, I\'d hope that if she does try to call him, he would immediately shut her down. If the call was indeed her, the fact that she called the home phone (rather than the husband\'s cell phone) may indicate that she was looking to talk to you, the wife. If it were me, I would not play into her hand. If more calls come, I\'d continue to ignore them. If they become excessive, then you can always block them. I rarely see anything positive come out of these communications. They just increase the deception, manipulation, anger and pain. The wife generally gets nothing but more aggravation out of these calls. There is nothing to be gained by anyone but the woman attempting to call. I know that there are always exceptions, but why not focus on yourself and what you need right now? You have other things to worry about, which is why I\'d just ignore the calls and not overthink this issue too much. She can\'t talk to you unless you pick up, which is why I wouldn\'t.</p>\r\n</div>\r\n</div>');

margin-top: 18px; color: #333333; font-family: \'Avenir Next\', Arial, \'Helvetica Neue\', Helvetica, sans-serif; background-color: #ffffff;\">\r\n<div id=\"article-content\">\r\n<p style=\"margin: 0px 0px 1em; padding: 0px; line-height: 1.5em;\">I sometimes hear from faithful wives who are worried about their husband\'s feelings after he has ended his affair. Many worry that even though their husband seems to be committed to the marriage, he is going to miss the drama and the excitement that the affair brought about. They worry that by comparison, their marriage is going to seem boring.</p>\r\n<p style=\"margin: 0px 0px 1em; padding: 0px; line-height: 1.5em;\">A wife might say, \"my husband and I have been doing pretty well after his affair. I\'m pleasantly surprised because he has been very cooperative with everything that I have asked of him. He comes home after work. He doesn\'t go out anymore. And he hasn\'t complained about this. But I worry that he is going to see just staying home as boring. I do know that my husband spent a lot of money on the other woman. They went out and did things all of the time. My husband and I have dinner together and care for our children. So I worry that he is going to miss the excitement of the affair. I have always thought that we had a pretty good sex life. But sex after you\'ve been married for years probably can\'t compete with forbidden affair sex. Am I right in thinking that men tend to miss the excitement when they end the affair?\"</p>\r\n<p style=\"margin: 0px 0px 1em; padding: 0px; line-height: 1.5em;\">I suppose that some men might. But others are actually relieved to let it go because it was stressful to live with that kind of secrecy and lies. I am not a man who has had an affair, but I have spoken with (and have heard from) many of them. Granted, because of my articles, I am probably more likely to hear from those who want to save their marriages. But frankly, many of them are living in a sort of pretend fantasy world during the affair. They keep the affair and their marriage separate in their minds as much as is possible. However, once the affair is discovered, this deception and cover up can\'t continue. And that is when the husband must actually see the reality of what he is doing. It is usually only then that the seriousness of his actions can no longer be denied.</p>\r\n<p style=\"margin: 0px 0px 1em; padding: 0px; line-height: 1.5em;\"><strong>Putting This In Perspective</strong>: Many men in this situation become extremely afraid of losing their wife and their family. They suddenly see the affair for what is was - nothing more than pretend. And worse, now they have put their family at risk. Once a husband has faced losing his wife and his cozy, comfortable family, he can actually start to put both on a pedestal, which may be why you\'re seeing him being so cooperative about staying home.</p>\r\n<p style=\"margin: 0px 0px 1em; padding: 0px; line-height: 1.5em;\">That is not to say that there aren\'t some men who truly want to save their marriage, but who are also almost addicted to the affair and to the other woman. So although they tell their wife that the affair is over and they believe that their words are sincere, this doesn\'t stop them from continuing to communicate with the other person because they just can\'t seem to let the whole thing go.</p>\r\n<p style=\"margin: 0px 0px 1em; padding: 0px; line-height: 1.5em;\">But that is not true of every man. Since statistics show us that most couples actually stay together after an affair, it\'s my observation that the majority of men want their wife and their marriage. Many are happy to be participating in their family rituals again because they were afraid that they\'d no longer be welcome to do so. Because of this, many are actually happy with (and comforted by) your nights eating side by side and spending time with your kids.</p>\r\n<p style=\"margin: 0px 0px 1em; padding: 0px; line-height: 1.5em;\"><strong>Easing Your Mind</strong>: Of course, any marriage can benefit from spicing things up if you think that this might help. After my husband\'s affair, my husband and I did make a point to step outside of our comfort zones. We traveled more. We spiced up our date nights by agreeing that we would try something new every week. We found joint hobbies that we could pursue together. These things were very beneficial because it felt like we were discovering something new during our recovery and this was fun for both of us.</p>\r\n<p style=\"margin: 0px 0px 1em; padding: 0px; line-height: 1.5em;\">However, there was no way around the fact that we were parents with children. Our family came first. We couldn\'t pretend that we were newlyweds with no responsibilities, although we did make an effort to keep things fresh. Ultimately, neither of us were bored or felt that our lives lacked excitement. After all that we had been through, just spending quiet nights with our family in our home felt like a privilege because there were times when neither of us were sure that our marriage (or our family) was going to remain intact.</p>\r\n<p style=\"margin: 0px 0px 1em; padding: 0px; line-height: 1.5em;\">So to answer the original question, sure, there are some men who miss the excitement of the affair. But in my observation, most men are relieved to be back in their family\'s lives. They realize their mistake and they realize that there is a sweetness and comfort in their family and marital history, which they take solace in. When something that you value is put at risk over your mistake, you often are so happy to still have it, that you don\'t see it as boring. You\'re just glad that it is yours. However, if excitement is something that you worry about, there is nothing wrong with trying to spice things up so that neither of you are bored or lacking in excitement.</p>\r\n</div>\r\n</div>');

margin-top: 18px; color: #333333; font-family: \'Avenir Next\', Arial, \'Helvetica Neue\', Helvetica, sans-serif; background-color: #ffffff;\">\r\n<div id=\"article-content\">\r\n<p style=\"margin: 0px 0px 1em; padding: 0px; line-height: 1.5em;\">I often hear from wives who feel very insecure and jealous after their husband\'s affair. This jealousy is not always limited to just the other woman in the affair. Much to her surprise, the wife can find herself jealous of numerous people, even if she is not jealous or envious by nature. This may be because her perception of herself (and of the world around her) has been rocked by the affair.</p>\r\n<p style=\"margin: 0px 0px 1em; padding: 0px; line-height: 1.5em;\">She might say, \"I am not a jealous person by nature, but since my husband had an affair six months ago, I find my nasty, jealous side coming out. Unfortunately for me, the other woman is everything that I am not. She is high maintenance and well put together. She dresses to the nines and is friends with botox. I am a very casual person who wears minimal make up. Exercise is important to me so I do stay in very good shape, but I am not someone who is going to attempt to look a runway model if I am only going to the grocery store. I have a family and a job, so I try to look presentable, but I have other things to worry about. However, since my husband\'s affair, I have now started to pay close attention to my appearance. I notice I have wrinkles and am starting to develop jowls. I have tried dressing better, but I feel kind of silly and I\'m definitely uncomfortable. If I am in a grocery store and I see a well-put together, pretty woman, then I immediately feel that her life is better than mine and I wonder if she is the type of woman my husband would go for if he cheated again. I also find myself jealous of women who either never had children or who don\'t put their children first. I am embarrassed to admit this, but I sometimes feel like my staying home with my kids and my putting my kids first has made me less interesting to my husband and just less appealing in general. I am jealous of career women who can do nothing but enjoy themselves on the weekends or who have spa days. I would never think of doing either. Lately, I am pretty much jealous of anyone who isn\'t me. I feel like a huge, unattractive loser at times.\"</p>\r\n<p style=\"margin: 0px 0px 1em; padding: 0px; line-height: 1.5em;\">I can totally identify with what you are saying. I went through the same set of feelings. I will share some things that ultimately helped me over time. Immediately after my husband\'s affair, I truly felt hideous. I became so critical of myself and I had some of the same feelings about the fact that I had focused on motherhood. One day I was talking with a friend of mine who is childless and I confessed about how much I envied her. Then she admitted that she envied ME because she could see how much love I had for my children and vice verse. She said that she was jealous that for my entire life, I would have two other people in the world that I loved more than life itself. This was going to be true no matter what happened with my marriage or in other areas of my life. My friend said that no one could ever take motherhood away from me, or my love for (and from) my children. I could not argue with this. Then my friend insisted that I underestimated my looks. She said that sure, I wasn\'t always heavily made up, but I had a natural beauty that didn\'t require heavy use of cosmetics to enhance it. I appreciated this, but didn\'t always believe it.</p>\r\n<p style=\"margin: 0px 0px 1em; padding: 0px; line-height: 1.5em;\">Then, a few weeks later, something very sad happened. For about 20 years, I had this ultra competitive relationship with a friend from high school, who later went to the same college as I did. This woman was so accomplished and talented. We often competed for the same internships, jobs, etc. She almost always beat me. She never had kids and traveled the world, which was something I really wanted to do, but knew I might never have the opportunity considering my obligations. Anyway, we had a sort of love / hate relationship. My admiration of her made me see what I didn\'t have. I spent a lot of time being envious and thinking that she had it all - until she got very sick. The point that I am trying to make is that you never know what life is going to bring at you. Those people in the grocery store who you assume have it all may have a sick parent at home. Or they may go home to an empty house and watch TV alone. Things are not always as they appear. Someone may always appear to have it better than you. But likewise, someone will always have it worse than you.</p>\r\n<p style=\"margin: 0px 0px 1em; padding: 0px; line-height: 1.5em;\">I learned to begin to appreciate what I had. Sure, I had some wrinkles. But I was otherwise healthy. Yes, I had prioritized my children and there were some sacrifices with that, but isn\'t that true of anything worthwhile? At the same time, I did make some changes that increased my confidence level. I did change my hair, fixed my teeth, and enhanced my wardrobe. I gave myself permission to take better care of myself and to carve out some time (and maintenance expenses) just for me. I decided that a happier mom was going to mean happier children. At the same time, I was very careful to make sure that I wasn\'t just chasing an idea of how I thought I should look. I focused on what I truly liked and not on what I thought my husband would like. I also took some classes and eventually began to pursue my own work. That way, if my marriage did not survive, I could have the confidence that I\'d be all right.</p>\r\n</div>\r\n</div>');

padding: 0px; line-height: 1.5em;\">I sometimes hear from wives who are somewhat angry that they miss their unfaithful husband. Many of them have kicked him out of the home. They felt justified in doing this and they thought that taking this type of decisive action might give them some relief. But, much to their surprise and disappointment, they find that they still miss him. Many are confused about this reaction. They think that they should feel nothing but wrath toward him, yet this just isn\'t the case.</p>\r\n<p style=\"margin: 0px 0px 1em; padding: 0px; line-height: 1.5em;\">Someone might say, \"I\'m embarrassed about this, but I miss the husband who I kicked out three weeks ago due to his affair. I know that 3 weeks isn\'t even that long and I know that an affair is an unforgivable offense. But several times in every 24 hour period, something will happen and I will think \'oh, I have to share this with my husband\' or \'I have to tell my husband about this,\' and then I\'ll realize that I really can\'t easily share this with him because I kicked him out. When I get home after a long day, I find myself wishing he was there so that we could share dinner. I find myself wishing that he could tuck the kids into bed and I know that this isn\'t fair to anyone because he made his choice. He calls every night to talk to the kids. He tries to talk to me, but I admit that I\'m pretty distant with him. I get off the phone quickly, but then I find myself wishing I\'d talked to him. He texts and emails me, but I delete them. He says that if I would give him a chance, he would make this up to me. I am angry at myself for missing him like this and for even considering his offer. How can I make it stop?\"</p>\r\n<p style=\"margin: 0px 0px 1em; padding: 0px; line-height: 1.5em;\">I think that you are being very hard on yourself. For many of us, our husband has been in our lives for many years. We usually share a home, children, and an extended family. Perhaps it is unrealistic to just think that we can cut him out of our lives without a backward glance. My husband and I spent some time apart after his affair, and I freely admit that I missed him right away. I can\'t imagine how this isn\'t natural. Because regardless of the circumstances, you have to expect it to hurt when your other half is fully participating in your life one second, and then in the next second, he isn\'t. Just because an affair is the cause of this does not mean that it is going to hurt any less or that you can stop yourself from feeling this void.</p>\r\n<p style=\"margin: 0px 0px 1em; padding: 0px; line-height: 1.5em;\">As far as how to make it stop, I would think or guess that time would eventually take care of that. Since you have children, you\'ll likely have to interact with and see him for some time to come. Counseling can help to make this transition as healthy as possible. Many couples are able to move on after an affair, regardless of whether they stay together or not, but it just takes time. I found that when my husband and I were living apart, it helped greatly to keep myself busy and to focus on self improvement and self care. In short, since I didn\'t know what my life moving forward was going to look like, I decided to depend and focus on myself and on my children. I couldn\'t control what my husband was doing. But I was able to control myself. So when I felt myself feeling self pity or despair, I\'d force myself to get up, take a walk, exercise, or do something else that benefitted myself, my kids, or others. I tried to take the focus away from the affair and place it on something positive about the future.</p>\r\n<p style=\"margin: 0px 0px 1em; padding: 0px; line-height: 1.5em;\">To be fair, my husband and I did eventually reconcile. This happened because through counseling and deep soul searching, I came to the honest conclusion that I thought that my life would be better with him in it than out of it.</p>\r\n<p style=\"margin: 0px 0px 1em; padding: 0px; line-height: 1.5em;\">But I think you\'re being too hard on yourself when you expect yourself to just not miss him. Your life has been altered because of a mistake that you didn\'t make. That mistake doesn\'t mean that your marriage didn\'t happen or that your family didn\'t exist.</p>\r\n</div>\r\n</div>');

margin-top: 18px; color: #333333; font-family: \'Avenir Next\', Arial, \'Helvetica Neue\', Helvetica, sans-serif; background-color: #ffffff;\">\r\n<div id=\"article-content\">\r\n<p style=\"margin: 0px 0px 1em; padding: 0px; line-height: 1.5em;\">It\'s estimated that 50 percent of husbands will have an affair. I\'m not talking about an emotional affair or a fantasy affair but a physical affair. With such a daunting statistic, what are the odds that your husband will cheat on you and how in the world do you keep him on the right side of the stats?</p>\r\n<p style=\"margin: 0px 0px 1em; padding: 0px; line-height: 1.5em;\">The good news is that not everyone cheats so you have a fighting chance. In my humble opinion, your relationship with your husband is one of the main influencers on whether he stays faithful or not. I don\'t believe you can stop him if he is hell-bent on cheating. However, I do believe you are one of the main reasons he will not cheat and if you have a close family, kids and in-laws that also can help influence his decision. On the flip side, some people are just down right determined that cheating is worth taking a risk for.</p>\r\n<p style=\"margin: 0px 0px 1em; padding: 0px; line-height: 1.5em;\">For example, this is a real life recent event that happened in North Carolina. You may have seen the story in the news. There was a guy who owned a towing business and of course he was married, with kids. He was having an affair and for whatever reason, news about the affair was probably going to get out. In an attempt to keep the affair from being made public, he killed his mistress and tried to burn the body by setting a fire. He was unsuccessful and is now in prison, with little chance of every seeing freedom again. This guy had a family, a business and a good reputation in his community. Why on earth did he throw it all away, just for a brief affair?</p>\r\n<p style=\"margin: 0px 0px 1em; padding: 0px; line-height: 1.5em;\">I would be lying if I told you I knew his reasoning. I do believe that he was not truthful to his wife or to his own self. There is no way, a truthful man wakes up one day, has an affair and ends up killing the person he cheats with. That person has deceived his spouse and many others.</p>\r\n<p style=\"margin: 0px 0px 1em; padding: 0px; line-height: 1.5em;\">Now, I didn\'t detail this story to depress you or make it seem like there is nothing you can or should be doing to deter your husband from having an affair. I do think that your goal should not be just to keep him from having an affair. If that is your only goal, you may miss out on having a great marriage. If you focus on having a great marriage, I think you will have a better chance of keeping your husband from having an affair. You will also lower the chances of you having an affair. Oh yeah, you have to also be careful not to fall into the arms or bed of another man. But, that\'s something we can talk about at another time.</p>\r\n<p style=\"margin: 0px 0px 1em; padding: 0px; line-height: 1.5em;\">Now back to your hubby, sweetie pie, sugar puff or whatever nickname you have for him. What can you do to keep him on the right side of the 50 % stat?</p>\r\n<p style=\"margin: 0px 0px 1em; padding: 0px; line-height: 1.5em;\">&nbsp;</p>\r\n<ol style=\"margin: 0px 0px 1em; padding: 0px; list-style-position: inside;\">\r\n<li style=\"margin: 0px; padding: 0px; line-height: 1.5em;\"><strong>Fill his voids&nbsp;</strong>- Filling his voids means trying to work with him to make him know that he is respected, loved and appreciated. Men are simple individuals and pretty much need to feel like they are relevant. If your husband feels relevant he will more than likely not need to stray to have this void in his life be filled</li>\r\n<li style=\"margin: 0px; padding: 0px; line-height: 1.5em;\"><strong>Give him boundaries</strong>&nbsp;- Your husband has to know that you care enough to be concerned about what he does and with whom. Girlfriends are not necessary and neither is his need to hang out with single guys and girls. The easiest way to fall into the arms of another woman is to spend quality time with other women. He needs to know this is unacceptable.</li>\r\n<li style=\"margin: 0px; padding: 0px; line-height: 1.5em;\"><strong>Don\'t assume he won\'t&nbsp;</strong>- As good a man, as your husband is, don\'t assume that he wouldn\'t do it. Remember, the owner of the towing company I referenced above? Just because he is a good, loving, devoted husband and father, doesn\'t mean he can\'t fall from grace and have an affair. Be on guard and always assume that he could cheat on you. You don\'t have to obsess about it. But never, close your eyes and assume he would never cheat.</li>\r\n</ol>\r\nSo how likely is it that your husband will cheat on you? I\'ll sum it up by saying, it somewhat depends on you. It\'s not all up to you but you can influence whether he cheats or not. Work on building strong, healthy marriage and the odds of him having an affair will be much lower than that 50% number.\r\n<p style=\"margin: 0px 0px 1em; padding: 0px; line-height: 1.5em;\">&nbsp;</p>\r\n</div>\r\n<div id=\"article-resource\">\r\n<p style=\"margin: 0px 0px 1em; padding: 0px; line-height: 1.5em;\">Please take the necessary steps to build a strong marriage to avoid having to deal heal with the ugly, painful experience of dealing with infidelity. Having to learn how to forgive and love your husband again, after he has an affair will be one tall task.

padding: 0px; line-height: 1.5em;\">When someone is in relationship, they will have the opportunity to grow and to heal any wounds that they may have. This can mean that there will be moments that are deeply fulfilling and moments that are extremely painful pain.</p>\r\n<p style=\"margin: 0px 0px 1em; padding: 0px; line-height: 1.5em;\">What will play a big part here is how much pain one is carrying. If they have a lot of baggage, they could be used to experiencing more downs than ups in their relationship.</p>\r\n<p style=\"margin: 0px 0px 1em; padding: 0px; line-height: 1.5em;\">Unaware</p>\r\n<p style=\"margin: 0px 0px 1em; padding: 0px; line-height: 1.5em;\">However, even if one is carrying a lot of baggage, it doesn\'t mean that they will realise this. Instead, they could believe that the other person is causing them to feel the way they do, believing that they are to blame.</p>\r\n<p style=\"margin: 0px 0px 1em; padding: 0px; line-height: 1.5em;\">If they have this outlook, it is not going to be possible for them to take responsibility for their own pain. The other person could put up with this, thereby causing them to be weighed down by issues that don\'t belong to them.</p>\r\n<p style=\"margin: 0px 0px 1em; padding: 0px; line-height: 1.5em;\">The Defining Factor</p>\r\n<p style=\"margin: 0px 0px 1em; padding: 0px; line-height: 1.5em;\">What this will show is that they lack self-awareness, with this being the reason why they can\'t own their own issues. The reason why the other person goes along with this could be because this is what feels comfortable.</p>\r\n<p style=\"margin: 0px 0px 1em; padding: 0px; line-height: 1.5em;\">Perhaps they grew up in an environment where their caregiver didn\'t take responsibility either, causing them to have a false sense of responsibility and to lack boundaries. This then stops them from standing their ground.</p>\r\n<p style=\"margin: 0px 0px 1em; padding: 0px; line-height: 1.5em;\">A Battle</p>\r\n<p style=\"margin: 0px 0px 1em; padding: 0px; line-height: 1.5em;\">The energy that one person uses to blame the other could aid their own development, as opposed to being wasted in this manner. This is then going to be a relationship that will drain both of them.</p>\r\n<p style=\"margin: 0px 0px 1em; padding: 0px; line-height: 1.5em;\">Before long, one of them could decide that enough is enough and walk away, and this could be the person who doesn\'t want to work through their issues. They could soon find someone else and the same thing could happen all over again.</p>\r\n<p style=\"margin: 0px 0px 1em; padding: 0px; line-height: 1.5em;\">One Problem</p>\r\n<p style=\"margin: 0px 0px 1em; padding: 0px; line-height: 1.5em;\">Conversely, one could be in a position where one issue is making it hard for them to relax around their partner, and this could cold be something that consumes their attention when they are apart. One may believe that their partner is cheating on them and this could cause them experience a lot of pain.</p>\r\n<p style=\"margin: 0px 0px 1em; padding: 0px; line-height: 1.5em;\">They could talk to their partner, or they could end up talking to their friends about what is going on for them. If they speak directly to their partner, it might allow them to allay their fears but if they speak to their fiends, it could make things worse.</p>\r\n<p style=\"margin: 0px 0px 1em; padding: 0px; line-height: 1.5em;\">Another Approach</p>\r\n<p style=\"margin: 0px 0px 1em; padding: 0px; line-height: 1.5em;\">Alternatively, one could take a step back and reflect on what is taking place internally and externally. This will give them the chance to see if there is anything to what they believe or if they are just overreacting.</p>\r\n<p style=\"margin: 0px 0px 1em; padding: 0px; line-height: 1.5em;\">During this time, they may find that something from their past has been triggered. Maybe they feel worthless and have a fear of being abandoned, which is why they have come to believe that their partner is straying.</p>\r\n<p style=\"margin: 0px 0px 1em; padding: 0px; line-height: 1.5em;\">The Past is Present</p>\r\n<p style=\"margin: 0px 0px 1em; padding: 0px; line-height: 1.5em;\">At the beginning of their life, they may have been neglected by their caregivers, and this would have caused them to believe that they were worthless. The years would then have passed, but they will still fear that they will be left.</p>\r\n<p style=\"margin: 0px 0px 1em; padding: 0px; line-height: 1.5em;\">Through being egocentric at this age, they would have believed that they were only left since they had no value. In reality, they were left due to the issues that their caregiver/s had; that\'s all there is to it.</p>\r\n<p style=\"margin: 0px 0px 1em; padding: 0px; line-height: 1.5em;\">External Support</p>\r\n<p style=\"margin: 0px 0px 1em; padding: 0px; line-height: 1.5em;\">What they could then do is to find someone who can assist them, such as a therapist or a healer. Once they have worked though their pain, it will be easier for them to live in the present moment.</p>\r\n<p style=\"margin: 0px 0px 1em; padding: 0px; line-height: 1.5em;\">Yet, if they were to find that what is taking place within them is not having an effect on how they are perceiving reality, they could believe that it would be a good idea for them to speak to their partner. After talking about this with them, they could find that there is nothing for them to worry about.</p>\r\n<p style=\"margin: 0px 0px 1em; padding: 0px; line-height: 1.5em;\">Denial</p>\r\n<p style=\"margin: 0px 0px 1em; padding: 0px; line-height: 1.5em;\">At the same time, one could have clear evidence that something is going on and they could sense that something is not right, but their partner could deny it. If their partner is not willing to admit to what is taking place, they might wonder if the time has come to end the relationship.</p>\r\n<p style=\"margin: 0px 0px 1em; padding: 0px; line-height: 1.5em;\">On the other hand, they could go along with what their partner says and start to question themselves. As time goes by, they could disconnect from themselves and only pay attention to what comes out of their partner\'s mouth.</p>\r\n<p style=\"margin: 0px 0px 1em; padding: 0px; line-height: 1.5em;\">Out of Touch</p>\r\n<p style=\"margin: 0px 0px 1em; padding: 0px; line-height: 1.5em;\">One will have allowed their partner to tell them what is or what isn\'t taking place, and this will cause them to ignore their own feelings and instincts. Their partner is then going to have a lot of power over them.</p>\r\n<p style=\"margin: 0px 0px 1em; padding: 0px; line-height: 1.5em;\">Taking this into account, the sooner one gets back in touch with their inner world the better their life will be. The person they are with is not going to have their best interests at heart, so they will probably need to cut their ties with them.</p>\r\n<p style=\"margin: 0px 0px 1em; padding: 0px; line-height: 1.5em;\">Awareness</p>\r\n<p style=\"margin: 0px 0px 1em; padding: 0px; line-height: 1.5em;\">If one can relate to this, and they want to change their life, they may need to reach out for external assistance. This is something that can be provided by a therapist or healer, and the support of their friends and family may also be needed.</p>\r\n</div>\r\n<div id=\"article-resource\">\r\n<p style=\"margin: 0px 0px 1em; padding: 0px; line-height: 1.5em;\">Prolific writer, author, and coach, Oliver JR Cooper, hails from England.

But it\'s also a lot of work. If you don\'t have a wedding planner, you need to find a point person to help you through the process. Here are some things to consider:</p>\r\n<p style=\"box-sizing: border-box; margin-top: 0px; margin-bottom: 1rem; color: #585858; font-family: Poppins, sans-serif; letter-spacing: 1px; background-color: #ffffff;\">First, you need to think about your budget. Many venues provide in-house catering, floral arrangements, and event planning services. This can save you money.</p>\r\n<p style=\"box-sizing: border-box; margin-top: 0px; margin-bottom: 1rem; color: #585858; font-family: Poppins, sans-serif; letter-spacing: 1px; background-color: #ffffff;\">Next, you need to choose a date. You\'ll want to pick a date as soon as possible. Don\'t put off choosing your date because you\'re nervous or worried about how you\'ll be able to pay for it. It\'s best to book your wedding as soon as you can.</p>\r\n<p style=\"box-sizing: border-box; margin-top: 0px; margin-bottom: 1rem; color: #585858; font-family: Poppins, sans-serif; letter-spacing: 1px; background-color: #ffffff;\">You\'ll need to figure out what you want the ceremony to be like. For example, you may wish to have a religious ceremony or one that\'s less formal. You can have a wedding in a church, a garden, or any other place that you like.</p>\r\n<p style=\"box-sizing: border-box; margin-top: 0px; margin-bottom: 1rem; color: #585858; font-family: Poppins, sans-serif; letter-spacing: 1px; background-color: #ffffff;\">You\'ll also need to decide on a wedding party. The bride and groom can choose to have only close family members or friends as part of the wedding party. Regardless of what you choose, don\'t get involved in any activities that will offend others.</p>\r\n<p style=\"box-sizing: border-box; margin-top: 0px; margin-bottom: 1rem; color: #585858; font-family: Poppins, sans-serif; letter-spacing: 1px; background-color: #ffffff;\">You might also choose to have a videographer. However, this isn\'t necessary for everyone. You can also have your own mood board with images that you like. This will make your wedding more personal. You can even use it for vendor meetings.</p>');

From the ancient Egyptians to modern-day ring-wearing war heroes, the meaning of the wedding ring has evolved along with the culture. It\'s a symbol of eternal love and commitment that will always remind the newlyweds of their marriage.</p>\r\n<p style=\"box-sizing: border-box; margin-top: 0px; margin-bottom: 1rem; color: #585858; font-family: Poppins, sans-serif; letter-spacing: 1px; background-color: #ffffff;\">Traditionally, the wedding ring has been worn on the ring finger of the left hand. This has changed over the years, though, with the addition of the right hand. During World War II, soldiers began to wear them.</p>\r\n<p style=\"box-sizing: border-box; margin-top: 0px; margin-bottom: 1rem; color: #585858; font-family: Poppins, sans-serif; letter-spacing: 1px; background-color: #ffffff;\">A few centuries later, diamonds were introduced into the wedding ring market, and were marketed as a rare gemstone. The diamond also supposedly represented invincibility and the ability to ward off evil spirits. During the Renaissance, the \"poesy ring\" was commonplace. The Romans wore a similar ring.</p>\r\n<p style=\"box-sizing: border-box; margin-top: 0px; margin-bottom: 1rem; color: #585858; font-family: Poppins, sans-serif; letter-spacing: 1px; background-color: #ffffff;\">The ancient Egyptians may have been the first to conceive the ring that symbolizes eternity. They believed that the vein that ran from the ring finger to the heart was connected to the mind. They also wore rings made of hemp or metal. During the Roman empire, sapphires were commonly used in rings.</p>\r\n<p style=\"box-sizing: border-box; margin-top: 0px; margin-bottom: 1rem; color: #585858; font-family: Poppins, sans-serif; letter-spacing: 1px; background-color: #ffffff;\">The ancients also believed that a ring in the shape of a flower was a gaudy gimmick.

They have been around for a long time. They measure the sales and popularity of music. They\'re a metric to show where the industry is heading. But as the internet has changed, Billboard has had to rethink its methods.</p>\r\n<p style=\"box-sizing: border-box; margin-top: 0px; margin-bottom: 1rem; color: #585858; font-family: Poppins, sans-serif; letter-spacing: 1px; background-color: #ffffff;\">One of the Billboard charts is the Hot 100, which is a metric that counts radio airplay, album sales, streams, and other digital media. The chart\'s formula has evolved over the years, and has been tweaked to fit the changing industry.</p>\r\n<p style=\"box-sizing: border-box; margin-top: 0px; margin-bottom: 1rem; color: #585858; font-family: Poppins, sans-serif; letter-spacing: 1px; background-color: #ffffff;\">In 2012, Billboard introduced a system that combined digital downloads and streaming to make up part of its airplay-only charts. This method isn\'t perfect, however. Some fans claim that it\'s not an accurate measurement of the popularity of songs.</p>\r\n<p style=\"box-sizing: border-box; margin-top: 0px; margin-bottom: 1rem; color: #585858; font-family: Poppins, sans-serif; letter-spacing: 1px; background-color: #ffffff;\">Another way the charts do the math is by taking into account positive engagement with social media. This means that music with a high number of streams from YouTube will have more weight than songs with no streaming data. Similarly, albums with a high number of sales will be more valuable than songs with no sales.</p>\r\n<p style=\"box-sizing: border-box; margin-top: 0px; margin-bottom: 1rem; color: #585858; font-family: Poppins, sans-serif; letter-spacing: 1px; background-color: #ffffff;\">Finally, the Billboard Hot 100 has a few new tricks up its sleeve.
