Do you ever get over a partner having a emotion affair? I'm struggling. Any advice welcome

My ex had an emotional affair... I personally think it’s worse than them having a random one night stand with somebody, with no feelings involved. You’re going to get hurt with this one 😔 sorry to say. But everybody told me that, and I didn’t listen, I stayed with him... I was weak. I hope you might not go down the same path as I did. I’d start looking elsewhere yourself, put yourself first. There are way too many fish in the sea to justify staying with a rat... sending hugs.

Did they ever meet up?

So sorry OP. I ageee with pp, It's worse than a drunken ons, because there's a connection.

It will be a struggle. It's tough as we cannot help our feelings, but have control over our actions.He has to take responsibility for this affair. Is it over Or does he sometimes think about this other person?

I think it depends on lots of things. Whether it was two-sided or just a crush, whether personal things about you and your marriage were shared with the other person, and how it affected your life while it was going on. I think there is a scale, from messaging a colleague a little too much to actively meeting up with someone and lamenting that you can't do anything even though you're "soulmates", ugh.
