56 - THERAPIST HOTLINE - I’m in a happy relationship, so why am I thinking about someone else?
In today’s first ever OPENHOUSE Hotline episode, Louise reads clinical psychologist, Dr Tari, Mack and sex therapist Massimo Fontana a listener’s question that explains she is in a happy, long term relationship but has started to think about someone she has met at work …. A lot. Louise asks the therapists their thoughts on what to do when you start to think about someone who is not your partner. The group discuss: ⇢ Is this normal? Does this happen to everyone? ⇢ What to do when it happens; ⇢ Why this is often more about you, rather than the person outside of the relationship; ⇢ But what the other person can show you about yourself and your relationship; ⇢ Why stepping out of bounds isn't always the solution; ⇢ The shame and guilt that people experience when they do engage with the 'other person' thinking it might make them feel better; As well as asking; Is it normal to fantasize about someone who isn’t your partner? and What tips and tricks that you can introduce into your relationship to re-connect both inside and outside of the bedroom. ------ HEALING HONEYS (formerly OPENHOUSE)- STREAM MORE 🤍 Stream Healing Honeys on Spotify 🤍 Stream Healing Honeys on Apple Podcasts 🤍 Stream Healing Honeys on YouTube 🤍 Join Ad free listening CONNECT WITH LOUISE 💌 Connect with Louise on Instagram & TikTok 💌 Connect with Healing Honeys on Instagram 💌 Submit a question to the Healing Honeys Hotline 💌 TRASH TALKS: Submit Your Awful Dating Stories HEAL WITH LOUISE ✨ 7 Day Somatic Healing Trial: Daily Devotion ✨ Therapy + Healing PDFs: Therapy Shop ✨ 7 Day Free Confidence Queen Overhaul: Waitlist Sign Up ✨ There She Glows: 12 Week Life Transformation: Waitlist Sign Up Learn more about your ad choices.
