4:00 Topic: Dating in a doomed relationship
A listener writes in to ask how to deal with dating someone whose marriage is falling apart. Should she distance herself? How does she deal with the soon-to-be-ex wife? PW listeners give advice, including:
- Stop dating him and be supportive friend to both
- If the relationship is already long-term, don't leave, but offer to be a sounding board (we disagree that you should offer to be a sounding board but agree that not taking sides or speaking ill of anyone is key)
- Be prepared to fail
- Set limits by saying hurtful behavior and words won't be tolerated
- Be aware that how he acts during this breakup is very telling in how he will eventually treat YOU
