Why Emotional Cheating is so much worse...

My girlfriends and I have had multiple conversations about how getting emotionally cheated on sometimes is worse than physically getting cheated on.  We've all experienced it, but why is it worse than physical cheating?? Askmen.com recently conducted a survey, and this is what they found:

A little over 75% of women said that emotional cheating would leave them feeling more betrayed than sexual cheating. Emotional cheating is the type of cheating that most women find more destructive for their relationship. Women know that there are many other attractive women out there and that men are very visually stimulated by nature. Not that this condones sexual cheating, but it is well known that some men have a hard time controlling their sexual desires.The situation is more hurtful to a woman when her partner finds someone else whose personality he enjoys more. She often sees this as a sign that she no longer is interesting to him and that she is not fulfilling his emotional needs.This is also the type of cheating that has less rigid boundaries. It's easy to tell if someone is cheating sexually -- they are either having sex or they aren't -- but what defines emotional cheating from a woman's point of view?
