[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm not married any more. I'm sure my single-ness doesn't help, but her main issue is that she says in her culture people don't have friends outside of marriage. She thinks it's weird that he wants friends at all.[/quote]

I agree with her and I am a very UN-possesive wife.

A single woman who insists that her very best friend is a married heterosexual man is a big red flag to me.

I would not think it was an issue if your best friend was a married gay guy.[/quote]

That's crap.  It's normal for people not to have friends outside of marriage?

And if the OP and the guy hadn't been friends for very long, that would be one thing, but she said they've been friends for 30 years.  I'd believe her when she says that he's her best friend.  It sounds like they've been friends since they were children.  And it's really sad that the wife isn't even willing to get to know the OP.  I know that I certainly want to meet my husband's longstanding friends (male or female)--indeed, many of them are now my friends, too.  If the OP was unwilling to include the wife in plans, that would be a red flag, but it sounds like she's trying to socialize with them as a couple, and the wife is refusing.  [/quote]
