Tying it to first kiss OR first woohoo, that's a possibility to explore, though.
I like that idea. I'm sure plenty of people would too. This is probably something that peeps have been wanting for ages now.
Although... I suppose you could technically have an emotional affair without it necessarily being sexual or even physical... and how would you handle sims who manage to actually fall in love without Ever kissing or Ever woohooing? Well, first of all, is it even possible for that to happen? Can sims fall in love by just flirts and romantic hugs alone? And if so... do you consider that an affair, even if they haven't kissed or woohoo'd yet? I think I would. I mean, if Sim A has some form of committed relationship with Sim B, and then Sim A falls in love with Sim C and vice versa (Sim C with Sim A), I would still consider that an affair of sorts, even if they haven't kissed or woohoo'd. :-\

Fortunately, there's a memory for that, too. Besides, left to themselves, the latter quickly leads to the former.
trudy:
well, would not the most realistic option be to make it independent for each sim? Like jelousy with ACR?
There might be sims who consider flirting an affair, and feel guilty/betrayed. And other that have an open ralitionship an donīt even care if the husband woohoos the whole town. Is it an affair if the partner knows and donīt cares? swinger club or something ;-)
nocomment:
Yes, it's possible for sims to fall in love without kissing. One of my teens fell in love just from holding hands. It was adorable, but obvioulsy would have to be taken into account if making a hack.
J. M. Pescado:
All flirt actions are equally able to cause crush/love, and by default it automatically happens if you take any romantic action at 70 STR/LTR respectively. Although I really am baffled by how hand-holding qualifies as flirting. Or really, most of sim behavior as flirting.
