How will you feel when you realize that your best friend’s spouse has a crush on you? That will be very difficult to reveal to your best friend for fear of a break in the friendship.
If your friend’s spouse looks up to you and makes sexual advances to tempt you, it can be described as a lustful feeling and not actual love. Your friend’s spouse must be suffering from sexual lust, but that shouldn’t be your territory to flex muzzles. That’s somebody’s property, so he doesn’t have to give it away. It is prudent that you flee from this temptation to maintain a good and healthy relationship with your friend.
Especially if you remember the thoughts and emotions that you shared with your friend, you may not like losing them. A friend in death is a friend in need, but love is always blind. Sometimes people behave irrationally, out of love. However, it is not wrong to love, but it is wrong to have an intimate sexual relationship with your friend’s spouse. If that happens, the trust and respect that existed between you and your friend erodes and is replaced by hatred, suspicion, and rupture. You also have to remember that when you throw a ball at the wall, it bounces back.
There are many ways to avoid this temptation.
Do not visit your friend’s house during your absence. In this case, always make sure to visit your friend when you invite them, and not your spouse. Remember that your spouse is not your best friend.
If you want to call your friend, always call his mobile and not his landline.
When you talk to your friend, don’t discuss anything about your spouse. Whenever such a topic comes up, please avoid it. As much as you show interest in discussing issues concerning your spouse, this could spark your passion to fall into temptation.
Every time your friend’s spouse invites you to lunch, try your best to dishonor that invitation with tangible, polite excuses to avoid hurting them. And if you’d like to honor such an invitation, make a polite request to attend with your partner. If you don’t have a partner, your family member may be the best substitute. And you have to reveal this information to them so they can protect you.
Remember that your friend’s spouse is more or less your friend and not your enemy. Therefore, he must not do anything to hurt them, he must be cautious and polite in dealing with them; especially when they try to tempt you with sexual advances. The level of intimacy between you and your friend’s spouse should be casual.
