Yeah if my “ friends “ were hanging out with my spouse and the AP and chose not to inform me and act like they were costarring in a dramatic movie would be done with them and my spouse. Toxic people have no place in my life.


Yes I would be friends with none of these people. I don't need "friends" that would chuckle at the implosion of my marriage. Poor moral character all around.

OP here:
I am the originator of this thread. I'm posting from home today, since its a snow day. But Jeff can verify that my IP address is from the DC area.

Thank you for all the advice and your rapt attention!


THIS NEEDS TO BE A MOVIE. Spouses Z and X befriend the group and get engaged at D and E's baby shower.

The PP who mentioned The Big Chill hit the nail on the head.

So now, for the casting of your epic tale: Who should play Friend A, Newbie B, etc.?


Newbie B = Matthew Rhys!


I kept envisioning him as eddie's ex-husband from ab fab. Saffie's dad. He's teddybearish.
