"No emotional affairs"-rule comes from what I'd prefer in a sexual relationship. It's a rule because that's what I'd do anyway, and my husband doesn't want other people disrupting our home life.

I'm on the spectrum, so I find it stressful and unpleasant to build an emotional connection with someone new. The idea of "dating", and keeping in touch daily by writing e-mails, and making phone calls, talking... It's just.. No. It would take all fun out of it! I'm confident I'll be able to find someone willing to hook up and not to be clingy. Likely a married man.

I know it's not a conventional way to think, but it's the way I am. When I met my husband, I was actually seeking FB relationship because I didn't want another emotional partnership after my previous partner. We joke that he pushed his suit until I wore out, and agreed to have serious relationship. He said that he fell in love with my different way of thinking, and it has never been an issue in our relationship.

I travel regularly for work, and he travels regularly for fun. Logistics are there :)
