You are at a party and notice a guy repeatedly hitting on your married friend. The guy is her husband's best friend?

Since you mentioned I am a friend so i'll approach them myself... I'll tell the guy to back of and just show some respect because my friend is a married woman and her husband is s best friend (for crying out loud)... And i'd remind my friend also to better think of the possible consequences of their actions... I am quite protective of my friends and I do mind if they get in trouble so in situations where you know there's possible tension or problem that might arise it is best to do something before things go way out of hand...

I think if they were friends of mine I would do a little shock tactics and see the reaction. Walk up and say to him/them, loud enough to hear clearly " gees, get a room you two " and then see the look. If its light-hearted fun they'll laugh and say something funny.

If she was a bit worried she has a wonderful excuse to cut out the play and move away slightly without being pushy and if he really was intending to try and hit on her then he knows he's being watched. That would be something I'd do :) maybe a bit touchy but I'd soon know what was going on and if I needed to take it further or not....

Between those two options, maybe you should not get involved. Now, if we can add another option in there, I would say talk to the person that is being hit on. You say she is a friend right?

Talk to her, tell her you noticed somebody was being a little forward or frisky with her. Find out where her mind is and then you will better know how to proceed. No matter what option you choose, you must handle the situation with caution.

Best of wishes with that.

Hmm. I don't believe I would get directly involved. To do so, I feel, would be disrespectful to your friend.As an adult woman, she must be allowed to make her own decisions (so long as she is in a state to make them).

However, indirectly, if I was concerned, of course I would discuss what was going on (privately) with her. In that case, I'd be careful not to make any accusations or pass judgement.

I'd ask myself if the couple has an open marriage or not. I hear those who have an open marriage like that sort of thing. If they did not have the open marriage, I would then look towards my friend and see what her state of mind is.

If she's drunk and I know her husband will start a brawl, you bet your butt I will go over and say something to her about it. If she is in a right frame of mind and goes to a private area with this guy yeah I will tell the husband. I have been cheated upon and I do not want it happening to anyone else.

My concern would be with my friend, not her husband. I would go up to her and give her an out of the situation, to see if the man is making her feel uncomfortable. But if she doesn't take it, I'd let her be.It's not my responsibility to tell her husband anything, its hers.

And to tell him myself might cause a more detrimental situation than if I just trusted my friend to do what was right for her. Sometimes information can make people feel important, so they feel that they need to be the one to reveal the information, but I've learned from the past that if something is none of my business, it's best if I stay out of it.

I'd let my married woman friend handle the bum, but if he seemed to be overly persistent or she was just mousy by nature, I'd find some excuse to walk over and draw her away from him. I wouldn't stir up trouble by dropping hints to the husband. If the wife were really bothered by this guy, I'd hope she'd have enough sense to just go stand next to hubby and make it perfectly clear who she's with, or tell him herself if she thought it was necessary.

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.
