I have heard that married women should not have single men as their friends. What do other posters here think on this subject?

Better solution: men shouldn't get married.

I don't see anything wrong with married women having single male friends as long as they stay friends.

Thats the easy part. The development of feelings of single man to married woman is the hard part. Marriage doesn't stop other men having feelings for her. Marriage is not a magic spell designed for 1 man and 1 woman.

This thread wouldn't have anything to do with this post would it?

Quote:
A lovely NT woman came into my life months ago, she and I get along so well, her personality is top notch and she really knows how to speak to me, I even developed feelings for her, she's definately the one for me.......

........she's married to another guy. I am not fazed by this obstacle.


I think in this instance, if I were her husband I would have definite reservations about you being friends with my wife.

I never said it did. Feelings sometimes develop. My advice hasn't changed since the last time you and I talked about this. Stop talking to her. It's not fair to you, her, or her husband.

Just because you develop feelings for her doesn't mean all married women should avoid friendships with single men. Yours faults aren't our problem.

So I have to uphold the husband's honour while putting mine down. Great! :twisted:

Its very unfair, to get so far with a woman and know that nothing can happen. :twisted:

Solution: get a pair of dueling pistols and challenge him to the death honorable sir.

There's no honor in trying to steal another man's wife.

Like I told a friend of mine, it was the husband that stole her from me. What I am saying is that she is her own person. There is no need for a marriage. Cohabiting not enough? Is the whole marriage thing done because the man is insecure of what his partner will get up to. Marriage is a "legal threat" so either party can keep the other one in line. Its also unfair because it takes a man and a woman out of the relationship game.

You're twisted, Craig. I have nothing else to say because I don't argue with crazy.
