Men of nostr I need your input.

Say your wife had a mutual female friend that she had a falling out with and no longer likes. Is it appropriate to still be friends with this person?

Remain neutral.

Thanks for the advice rare šŸ¤

My advice would be to let that friendship fade away. "forsaking all others" etc. Your wife needs to know that she is #1 on a list of 1. Eliminate all doubt, let there be never be a question of where your loyalties lie.

If you two had a mutual male friend, and you and he had a falling out--what would you want her to do?

My 2 sats.

Thanks freeborn, this puts everything in perspective šŸ¤

Depends how bad it is. If this friend did something really bad then you may not want to associate with that person because it could eventually hurt you. Also ask yourself how you’d expect her to behave if the roles were flipped. Would you expect her to stop interacting with her?

Well it’s bad enough where she doesn’t want to talk to her anymore. On my personal scale of bad it’s like a 1-2 but my wife is really upset with her.

It sucks because the kids are friends and we all move around the same circle of people/friends. Softball world is tight community, where everyone knows everyone.

If you don’t think it’s that bad, maybe there’s a possibility that they’ll get over it and fix it themselves. Does cutting off the friend improve or worsen that possibility?

Eh hard to say, probably neutral to worsen I suppose.

No. You should also refrain from having any female friends as married man, especially if you want her to not see other men.

True, would make life easier.

Ask your wife

I know how she feels, that’s why I was asking from a guys perspective my friend

Then you have your answer, wife > friend

Exactly, thanks for responding brother šŸ¤

Just be neutral. And civil if you bump into them.

Thanks Jon that a good idea. I’m not trying to get caught in the middle

Yeah you definitely don't want to be in that situation. And if they work out their problem you'd have your own then

In a scale of 1 to 10, how nice ate her boobs?

A man of culture I see šŸ˜‚

It's a complicated subject. For one thing your wife won't like it if you continue to be friends. On the other hand you have to worsen your relationship with someone you don't mind. All I can say is that if I don't like someone, I wouldn't forbid anyone from associating with them.

Yea she didn’t do anything to me so I feel bad but in the other hand my relationship with my wife is more important so…
