My take is a little different than the other answer--- an emotional affair has nothing to do with sex-- not saying you can't be attracted to the person. But it becomes an emotional affair when the friend is the person to which you turn to-before your spouse. The other person takes on the emotional role of the spouse. When the friend is the person you want to talk to, want to hear from, get giddy when he/she calls, you "light up" when they walk in the room, etc. Basically when your heart and emotions are more "smitten" with someone other than your spouse, that is an emotional affair.
