Cupid's Pulse Article: Married Brett Favre Accused of Hitting on Second WomanCupid's Pulse Article: Married Brett Favre Accused of Hitting on Second Woman

Brett Favre may have to worry about getting sacked by more than just linebackers.  The quarterback for the Minnesota Vikings has been accused twice in three days of cheating on his wife Deanna Tynes Favre, according to RadarOnline.  Earlier this year, sports reporter Jennifer Sterger accused Favre of sending her sexy texts and pictures, but it wasn’t until last week that the National Football League began looking into the allegations seriously.  Less than 48 hours after the NFL announced its investigation, an unnamed masseuse who worked with Favre when he was part of the New York Jets, accused the quarterback of repeatedly leaving steamy messages on her phone.

Is it okay to be attracted to someone other than your mate?

Cupid’s Advice:

Cupid knows that it’s perfectly natural to be attracted to someone other than your mate.  Here’s some suggestions on how to make sure the attraction doesn’t turn into more:

1. Keep talking: Open and honest communication is the key to success in any relationship, so knowing how you and your partner feel about attraction to others will keep suspicion and resentment out of the relationship.

2. Consider the options: If you were to cheat, what would the benefits and gains be?  If you’re in a healthy and lasting relationship, the pros of  a quick fling should be less than the cons of ruining your relationship.

3. Check your relationship: If the positives don’t outweigh the negatives, then you should see whether your relationship needs some revamping.  It may be time to have a serious heart-to-heart with your partner, or it might just be time to end things.
