I am a married woman with several single guy friends. Some of them my DH is also friends with, some are people I met at work or know from another part of my life that are more "my" friends but my DH knows about them and has zero issues with our friendship. I actually just got back in touch with an old friend who is recently divorced. When I went to meet him for coffee to catch up, my DH and I were joking that he was reaching out in the hopes I was looking for a side piece. It was funny. It was actually just a friend trying to get back in touch with people after a tough relationship, no shady business at all.

But I'm happily married and am not interested in any of my friends, single or otherwise. If I were miserable in my marriage and actually attracted to one of these guys, it's a recipe for an affair or divorce, obviously. But the problem is the marital unhappiness and the attraction to this other person. Not the "friendship".


Nice try, but married women should not be going on coffee dates with single men. Of course he was trolling for a side piece.



Of coure he was! Though it's kind of sweet that pp is so naive. To married pp, your friend was putting out feelers


While DH was banging friend's ex.

That's what you think.


We are definitely not each other’s type and I’m 5 years older. I’ve never ever dated anyone younger than me and everyone I’ve dated has been at least a couple years older. He likes waif-like blondes. I’m curvy and AA.


Yes because people only ever date their type I have to agree with pp if you let him he would. The naivety some of you have is really sweet.

I have a few married friends and I slept with each one of them. I’m still friends with each of them to this day.

OP here. You guys are right. If I haven’t even told my BFF (and I tell her everything) then something isn’t right with my intentions either. Maybe I am so desperate for attention that I’m willing to act in a way that isn’t right. Need to nip that in the bud.

Haha not with these facts.

He is looking for a side hustle and if she goes to meet him, so does she.

Bingo! I love how she "jokes" with her husband that the guy is trolling for a piece. How Funny! Ha ha ha. Toxic behavior. I can't imagine being married to somebody like that.
