If I Were You is a 2006 play by British playwright Alan Ayckbourn. It is about an unhappy married couple who are given the chance to understand each other by discovering, quite literally, what they would do "if I were you," in the same manner as the 1926 novel Turnabout by Thorne Smith.

It shares the same name and theme as the 1938 play, If I were You, by Benn Levy and Paul Hervey Fox.
