Similar questions: friends partner spouse person occasion.
I always wondered what I would do..... first taking in consideration that people might have friends of opposite sex. Seeing a guy with a woman....maybe they are not guilty of anything. However if the situation might seem a little strange I probably would approach the best friend’s partner/spouse and ask him: " What’s up?" before hurting my girfriend’s feelings.
S response may clarify if anything is going on. I also would check with other of her friends to see if anything has been mentioned or if she has suspicions. If your best friend has doubts and is already thinking that something might be going on, you can mention what you saw without delivery of possible scenarios.
Do not plant ideas in anyone's mind. It is quite possible that she is aware of their meetings because maybe he told her so. I worked with this guy (we were managers at a company) and the job was one hour away and we car pooled so to split the driving expense.
Once a week we would go out to lunch to an Irish Pub that had the best crab cakes in the world. We would bring home some.Me for my husband and he for his wife. I made sure to invite his wife and kids for a BBQ here at home so she saw that I was devoted to my family and her husband and I were only coworkers and car poolers.
If I called him and she answered the phone and always had a 5 minutes conversation asking about the family and instead of asking to speak with him I would say: " can you give George a message?" Her response was: "He is right here. Hold on!
" Don't project.It is very easy to make someone uncomfortable and unsure.
I might speak to the spouse if I was really worried, but NOT to my best friend. That would be uncalled for unless I had absolute 100 % PROOF of something dire going on and was sure she was going to be hurt. I might think about what it looks like, eg, romantic, or business-y, or perhaps 'fish' to find out who it is, before jumping to any conclusions.
While it is true it is really not my business, I would not want the guy making a huge mistake for no reason. So I might say something to him if I really was concerned. People can drift into emotional affairs sometimes without even realizing.
Even sexual affairs, only 4% ever end in a real, committed relationship and close to 60% say they wish they had never cheated and wish they could get back what they had before they ruined everything. Had a colleague at work who had this issue. We all knew his wife very well, she was a former colleague, now home raising kids.
This new female hire was married when she started, went through a hellish divorce. She may not have meant to, but she started 'leaning on him' after her divorce more and more. Especially for help with her apt.
, her baby son, and so on. Everyone else wanted to tell his wife. I told them not to, that I would speak to him.
I told him that I didn't want to interfere, but I was direct with him about what it looked like to everyone. He was horrified--the thought never even crossed his mind that there were romantic feelings going on in the gal's head. He liked being a 'hero' type, and sort of got sucked in.
He distanced himself, disaster averted. So when in doubt, give people the benefit of the doubt. And be vigilant about jumping to conclusions one way or the other.
The Sikh religion tells people to view everyone not their relative or spouse as a brother or sister. It is a good way to avoid affairs! And stop the imagination from running wild for no reason....
Definitely Ask! I guess it would depend on how much it is bothering you. As for me, I would most definitely ask.
Not in an accusing manner, but just as a straight up question. I know that my own mind sitting and stewing over something can actually send me places way beyond what is factual. I can "worry" myself into almost anything.99.99% of the time, I am totally wrong.
I have made a mountain out of a molehill so many times by just being fearful of talking about something. Besides, the worst thing that could happen is that you find out that the other person is cheating. I would rather know than be in the dark and made to look like a fool.
Relationships that are not built on honesty do not work and never last. You must be able to trust that you can ask the other person a question and receive an honest answer and also not be afraid that he or she will become upset/angry simply because you ask a question. I hope my advice is helpful.
This is the first question I’ve answered on Askville. I joined today and am working on completing the Orientation Challenge. This looks like a wonderful on-line community of very thoughtful folks.
I happy to be joining it! Calypso .
Since my friendship with my friend is probably more important than my friendship with his/her spouse/sig other, then I would most certainly mention it to him/her, and give him/her pictures snapped from a cell phone, if I could provide those. The information will probably cause him/her pain if there is infidelity, but they have a right to know if their partner is cheating on them.
Mind my own business! I know...that can be hard, however, if we are a friend...it's the least we can do, you know, be a friend! Jaysus!

Whos the more attractive person. You or your partner?
I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
