Have you ever felt an unexpected attraction towards someone who should be off-limits, like a friend's spouse? In today's episode, we answer a listener's dilemma about finding herself attracted to her best friend's husband—all while she's navigating a rocky marriage of her own.

In this episode, I'll walk through steps on how to handle these sensitive situations without jeopardizing friendships and marriages. We'll discuss:

  • Understanding the nature of attraction, and why it's not inherently wrong.

  • How to identify what might be lacking in your own relationship.

  • The importance of not idolizing or comparing and keeping things in perspective.

  • Practical advice on how to limit interactions and keep temptations in check.

  • The value of confiding in a trusted friend to disempower unhealthy fantasies.
