“Objects” of unfaithfulness are numerous. Some are people, some are not. But the bottom line is that they come between you and your spouse. Some part of you avoids the relationship. We are not referring to the situations in which you are unable to take certain parts into marital intimacy, or in which the relationship is not safe enough for certain aspects of who you are. This dynamic is about deliberately splitting yourself into two people, one of whom is not connected to the marriage.
