There's a book "His Needs/Her Needs" that talks about how the five most important needs for a man in a marriage are the five least for a woman and vice versa.
The author says that if the partners are not meeting all five of the needs for each other the marriage is in danger of infidelity or failing. The needs are so powerful that spouses will seek to fill them elsewhere.
I was meeting about 2 1/2 of STBXW's needs and she was meeting about 1 1/2 of mine.
