Whether single or married, all need to bear in mind Jesus words. Coveting another person 's marriage mate is a sin. If one begins to entertain such a covetous desire, he or she should act quickly to rout out the unclean desire, even at the cost of a great emotional pain because of having allowed selfish cravings to develop.
