How to maintain friendship boundaries around intimate relationship struggles

My best friend keeps asking me for details about my relationship after I mentioned we're in couples therapy for sexual issues, and I want to be honest about what I'm going through but I also feel like I'm betraying my partner by sharing intimate details about our problems. She says she's just worried about me but it feels more like curiosity and I don't know how to navigate wanting support without exposing my partner.

More people experience this than they realize.

What we've seen

The need for support and the need for privacy are colliding, and the line between sharing one's own experience and exposing someone else's vulnerability has become unclear.
