Akward situation

[marriedK]

Hi dear friends,
I decided to join this forum so that i could speak about an akward situation that i have been in for quiet some time now.
I'm in my late 20s and i have been married for quiet some time. I love my wife like you wouldn't imagine and i adore her.
We have had a common friend for a few years, she is a very nice girl and a very good friend of ours. I truly believe that she is one of my best friends. We love spending time with her and it is the same for her.
I feel very bad though because i feel a lot of affection towards her and i think that i love her too and i care about her a lot.
Can someone love 2 people? Has it happened to you before?
What is the right thing to do in these situations?
I don't want to affect my marriage in any way.
I don't want to ruin my precious frieandship with this girl.
Also i feel a bit hypocritical when i pretend that she is only just a friend.
Thanks for reading!

In my opinion you can only truly love one person at a time. If you're feeling that you love this friend you're probably spending too much time with her. If you weren't spending too much time you wouldn't have time to develop these feelings or at least not entertain them enough to get you thinking.

The obvious answer is to distance yourself from the friend until you get the feelings under control. Not go away, not break the friendship, just stop putting yourself so close.
