It helps to try to think of them -- in their current state -- as an enemy of your marriage.

Someone who, in their current condition, doesn't have your marriage's (or even family's) best interests at heart. And then act toward them accordingly.

Think of a neighbor with whom you're friendly, but they're currently working for a company who's trying to destroy your family. How would you treat them?

There are ways to be friend-LY, without acting like her BFF or gay boyfriend. That's what you want to shoot for.
