Lantin didn't want to believe it, so he took the jewelry to another jewelry-store and there the jeweler confirmed the jewelry was real and was bought there. M Lantin concluded that his wife had lied to him about the jewelry and assumed that she committed adultery with the person who bought her the jewelry. Based on my research do believe that M. Lantin wife's did commit adultery because she was lonely, wanted to enhanced her self-image and wanted more intimacy. .
First, I believe she committed adultery because she was lonely. In Emotional Infidelity, I learned that flirting with coworkers, sending funny e-mails to your friends, or hanging out at gatherings with other people the opposite sex, is considered to be committing emotional infidelity (23). In the story M. Lantin's wife loved, go to the theater every night. At the beginning of their marriage, M. Lantin would go with her to the theater only because she would drag him with her. Then, it got to a point that M. Lantin did not want to go at all to the theater so, he begged her if he could stay at home when she went to the theater. At first she did not agree with him, but then she accepted his decision and started to go without him. In my opinion she was going to the theater with her lady-friend) but then she would meet up with someone else at the theater, and that someone else was probably the person who bought her the jewelry. I believe that M. Lantin's wife was doing this because she needed the company that her husband was not giving her. Neuman said, "You don't have to have sex to cheat on your marriage. When we think "affair," we think sex. Sex outside the .
marriage can be a knife through a spouse's heart. Nevertheless, emotional affair can be just as dangerous to a marriage, and often a more complicated situation to remedy" (26). Even though M. Lantin's wife was probably seeing someone else and maybe not having sex with him does not mean she was not cheating on her marriage.
