[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][b]If you know it would upset your DH, then why would you even be considering it? Is it really worth upsetting your spouse over?[/b]
I agree that if you continue this friendship, spouses should most definitely be on board. If you're uncomfortable with that, then you should run, not walk, away from this friendship.

A telling question to ask yourself is how you would feel if your DH wanted to get together with a serious ex-flame of his, just the two of them.[/quote]

This.  Exactly.

I don't see necessarily anything wrong with catching up with an ex-boyfriend over coffee, but [b]if I knew my husband wouldn't like it, or if I even considered not telling him about it, then I absolutely wouldn't do it[/b].

I'm all for the dinner with spouses or just nothing at all.  Even though you make it sound like you are totally over him, blah blah blah, you seem to acknowledge that there is something there.  And that "something" is probably what would upset your husband and makes this a bad idea.[/quote]

I would absolutely do it, regardless of whether DW liked it or not.  I'd be up front and honest about it.  But frankly, there's no place for petty jealousy in our marriage, and if those feelings come up, it's her job to deal with them as an adult, just like it would be my job to do so if the roles were reversed.[/quote]
