Can your partner have a best friend of the opposite sex without it affecting your relationship?

This episode tackles one of the most debated questions in modern dating and relationships. Is having an opposite-sex best friend completely harmless, or does it create boundaries that can threaten trust, intimacy, and commitment?

We discuss jealousy, emotional affairs, transparency, insecurity, healthy boundaries, trust, and what happens when a friendship begins to compete with a romantic relationship.

As always, we share our perspectives, listener opinions, real-life experiences, and a few controversial takes along the way.
