Episode 21: "Emotional Affairs: How Far Is Too Far?"

Is your partner’s “friend” a little too close for comfort? Are you emotionally tied to someone who isn’t your significant other—and is it “just friendship” or something deeper? On this raw and riveting episode of Hearts Wine from Hearts Distractions, we’re asking the question many couples avoid: “When does an emotional connection become an affair?” Whether it’s a coworker, an ex, your partner’s sibling, or even your best friend—blurry boundaries can break hearts just as easily as physical infidelity.

This episode dives deep into the gray areas of emotional cheating—how it starts, why we justify it, the psychological and emotional aftermath, and most importantly, how couples can protect their bond before it’s too late. Featuring real-life stories, Marriage & Family Therapy research, hard-hitting questions, poetry, and some tough truths—this episode is for anyone who’s ever asked, “Am I crossing a line?”

🔥 We talk feelings, fantasies, friendship, and fear.
💔 We unpack emotional betrayal, trust erosion, and silent resentments.
