Here’s how people really react when a friend’s spouse tries to make a move on them

When your best friend gets married, things inevitably get complicated. Though you may be over the moon for them, the nature of your relationship is bound to change as priorities shift and married life sets in. But things get extra complicated when his or her spouse makes a move on you.

Whatever happened to loyalty and to “death do us part” from the spouse?

How do you handle this type of confession and move forward in a way that doesn’t compromise your relationship with your best friend? While it might sound easy to merely rebuff and pretend it never happened, it’s not always so cut and dry. Do you tell your friend? Do you act on your feelings?
