13: Are They Really Your Best Friend?

When I first learned about my husband's betrayal, all I could think was: How could my best friend do this to me? I hear this lament so often and it is heartbreaking. I spent many years ruminating on this question and wasting precious time blaming myself. Eventually facing hard truths, I examined what true friends do and do not do. This episode exams some of the tenants of devoted friendship. The realities of my decades-long relationship with my husband were hard to accept. Once I did, however, it was freeing and enabled me to move forward, ushering in my healing.
