Johanna Lyman's Questions on Love and Relationships

Which kind of affair is worse?

I'm taking an informal poll here, please share your thoughts. Which would be worse for you in a relationship/marriage: if your partner had a one-night stand and had sex with someone they didn't know and didn't care about, or if your partner engaged in an "emotional affair" where no intercourse occurred but they had deep feelings, maybe even love, for another person?
Also, would you want to know?
Thanks everyone!
