[QUOTE="RidgeHunter, post: 2523214, member: 4319"] NO!!! Even though you are the 6th or 7th mature grown man in this thread to share my views and have similar friendships IT RUINS YOU'RE LIFE AND WE ARE ALL IDIOTS. My parents too. Not to mention many other people I know. I mean, I look at my parents healthy 30-year marriage and find it funny people with admitted divorce/affair issues would tell them what they are doing wrong. Not to talk down on those people, but ya know, it is tempting because they have *zero* problem talking down to us. No hesitation whatsoever. Interesting thread. People misunderstod it, tho. I wasn't asking for advice. I was asking for other people's views on this, and asking why people feel the need to stick their Peyton Place noses in other people's business and why grown men can't put their high-pitched incredulous voices away just because other people have different friendships than them. A few reasonable guys came in here with the "whatever works for you" attitude, but the vocal ones may as well be holding a bible in one hand and a snake in the other, preaching to us about THE PATH ON WHICH WE WALLLKKK! Enjoy your fake friends and 2 ruined marriages to come, Spamby. The tribe had spoken. It will be so. No really, go hug your friends and keep being good people. I will be in my chick friends wedding if she settles down. Hell, I will have probably introdced them. My couple friends have been together for years. We trust each other with everything. The dude is my best, oldest friend. Met him because I was born 6 days after him in a small town. They wanted to take pics of the town babies. Him, his fiance, and my chick buddy are my only 3' "real" friends besides my girlfriend. They all have keys to my my house. We would do and have done anything we could for each other. The couple has a really conservative relationship - way more so than I - but their thought is if they couldn't trust each other and they can't trustme, we wouldn't be this close and they wouldn't be getting married. If I thought for a minute he couldn't trust her, I'd be the one standing up at the wedding. I've zero times had sexual thoughts about my friend's woman. ****. Some women are off limits. No biggie.
