57 - Is It Normal to Fantasize About Someone Else? ft. Dr Tari Mack

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.
