asking for space, is it the answer to the infidelity?

Infidelity is caused by many different reasons. Some people are insecure about themselves and think the more people they bed the better they will feel about themselves, some people do it because they are lonely in their marriage and are not receiving what they need from the relationship and don't want to break it off and move on so they cheat, some peope are just heartless and enjoy hurting people. It depends upon the person and what the situation is. If you need space to figure out what you want out of the relationship, if you even want to be a part of it anymore, sure, it is good to take time to yourself and do some soul searching, but if you are just doing it to hide from the problem, it is not such a good idea.

First of all you did not cause the infidelity of your partner. They are the one who broke the promise and the trust. If you need some space to figure out if you want to continue with the relationship and to figure out what will make you happy, then I suggest you take it. I also suggest therapy. Its sound like you are going through a rough spot and having a third impartial person to talk to can sometimes help a lot. Often, I use my therapist as a check on myself. My friends will always side with me, but a good therapist is objective, and this helps make sure than I stay in bounds. I am an very emotional person and I take great care to make sure I am not irrational. I wish you luck in all of this and I hope your find happiness soon.

maybe, if that space can help you figure out all your problems. But i think, if you see every problems start with yourself first, it's more easy to handle and solve the problems with your control!!! SPACE is just excuse!

I don't know what causes infidelity. I wouldn't imagine lack of space would be it...that is just filling your space with something else. If I ask for space and I do...it is just to get myself back on track...sort out my feelings , put things in perspective...do my own thing. Im not sure what your question really is here....pretty vague so forgive me if i am answering wrong. Be more specific.
