a middle eastern man (but she's white). They end up having a child and then one day he asks her to come to his country to visit. Once they're over there he completely changes and starts abusing her and wants to keep her there and strip away all of her freedoms like the women in his country. She tries to find a way back into the United States without being caught and killed.
It was based on a true story.

"Not Without My Daughter". It starred Sally Field. It was a very moving film, and a great warning to American women who think that it will be all hunky-dory if they marry a Muslim. They will become property, without any rights at all.

The concept of emotional cheating is vague, but consider that when you get too emotionally involved with this other man, then you will be more prone to getting physically/sexually involved. Just because you haven't yet, doesn't mean it won't happen in the future. Also realize, if you are giving this emotional energy to someone else, you may be denying your husband those bonding opportunities that will make your marriage stronger, and will help your family stay united through the hard times. Do you think risking all that you have built together is wise? Because you admit that you are feeling "in love" with this man, and because you are asking for concensus, this leads me to think that you already know it is wrong to continue on this course. A short period of infatuation is normal, but four years later you have become too dependent on his "feel good", and by your own account this is not "brotherly love" that has developed. Question how selfish do you want to be. You have a good marriage and the start of a family. Why is that not enough? How would your husband feel if you told him this truth? Do you honestly think that if your marriage entered a rough time, that you would not "escape" to this other man? Has it occurred to you that you are wasting this other man's time? That you are squandering your husband's emotional investment? You are setting the stage for a very painful and disruptive outcome. If you truly care about the people involved, then you would put the brakes on this whole affair. By the two of you clinginging to each other emotionally, you are not honoring your vows to your husband and you are retarding your friend's ability to find his own happy marriage. You may try to justify it because the families are involved now and everything is hunky dory on the surface...but you know better. Imagine eveyone gathered in the room and you share this forum with them. Could you, with clear conscience?
