How to make feelings go away

Okay so there's this friend I have...we'll call her Dana and her boyfriend of 3 years Joey. Joey and Dana love eachother a lot and have come to know many things about eachother. Joey would do anything for Dana and loves her with all he has. Dana loves Joey too, but their sex life has declined a lot from what she tells me, and she doesn't know what to do about it. She's started losing interest in Joey and has found other love interests elsewhere. There's this guy we'll call him Toby whom she is totally into, but she is so commited to Joey that she feels terrible when she gets those flirty kind of feelings around Toby. Toby has a little boy and has been divorced, and Dana knows it could be trouble to start a relationship with him. Dana is so confused and doesnt know what to do with herself. Toby makes her feel so carefree and like she could just jump into his arms, but all the while she knows that Joey loves her and that she doesn't want to risk all they have built together for this time with Toby. What should Dana do???

Dana should know that the grass is not greener. She should talk to Joey about her feelings, expectations and attention she is getting that is making her doubt her relationship.
