Conclusion: Making your marriage affair-proof requires a large investment of time and emotional capital. But the investment is well worth it!
Rules to Avoid Temptation: Spend all your recreational time either alone or with your spouse. No meals alone with someone of the opposite sex. No rides in cars alone with those of the opposite sex.
4. Never tell someone of the opposite sex that you find them attractive or that you like them. 5. If someone of the opposite sex ever tells you that they find you attractive, start talking about how much you love your spouse. 6. Cultivate same-sex friendships with persons who share your morals and values.
