[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Your friendship preceded their relationship and his wife sounds insane. Your friend may need your friendship later. He needs it now but he may really need it later. If he calls, take the call. Fuck that wife texting, cause your relationship is not with her it is with him and you two are not inappropriate. Talking about politics, jobs etc with a friend is not inappropriate.

I say this from the perspective of having a BFF that is a guy who is married and I am not friends with his wife andhe is not friends with my husband, and we talk/text/IM all of the time about all kinds of things, but we have not crossed any inapprop line and I have known him for half of my life so if he said he thought it best we didn't talk because his wife was uncomfortable, I would leave it be but if his wife texted me saying that, I would ignore her because HE is my friend and he is a grown man, not a child. If after he said we needed to part ways for the sake of his marriage he needed me and reached out, I am not going to let this woman I don't know and have no relationship with trump our 20-plus-year friendship. I am taking the call. I have another good friend that is a guy who is married and I have never met his wife and we talk about all kinds of things, too. My husband knows about this man, too. Men and women can and do conduct friendships without them being inappropriate. [/quote]

This poster nailed it.

If you don't have trust, you don't have a relationship, plain and simple.  It is not a bad thing to get advice from both sexes, regardless of martial status.  I will say that too much contact can be a problem, but take it from someone that has several married female friends that go back to childhood, the friendship can work.  There are several times where I have met one at a cheap restaurant or Starbucks, somewhere public, and somewhere that nothing more will get read into it other than catching up. [/quote]
