…You think it’s inappropriate for a married woman to have conversations with men other than her husband outside of work responsibilities?

Man some of you guys are just shining beacons of feeling secure in your relationships

conversations? no, FB , INSTAGRAM PM? HELL YES. Because they are secretive in nature and allow weasels unfettered access to your wife. do you really think a weasel is going to CALL your wife 5 times a day on a landline at your home and chat? NOPE because thats puts it out in the open and spoils their game. But a text here, a like there is being in your wifes life repeatedly and quietly without you knowing....


It takes two to tango. Is she texting back? Engaging in the new found attention? It starts with her not responding to the guy.  She is because she like the attention.




Insecure.. most people are.


I’m very secure. In fact i do a lot of texting to various women…… single, married, dating.  Whatever.  Many are DTF.

I’m going to be blunt- your wife is already cheating on you, bro.

If there is any doubt, there is no doubt.

Regarding another dude talking to her: First she’ll downplay it, then later get really overly defensive, then she’ll start projecting- accusing you of talking to other women or thinking about leaving her or cheating, then she’ll start twisting that to justify her behavior which she won’t ever fully cop up to.

The existence of someone else isn't going to make you love your partner less.

If the relationship fails it's only due to the bond of those that agreed to be together.

Months ago, noticed that this guy was "liking" or commenting on every one of my wife's social media posts. Asked her about it, if he knew the guy and what his deal was. Just basic intel gathering. Apparently guy used to deliver supplies to her workplace office, no big deal she said.  Still kind of stuck with me, especially after he commented on my wife's pic from her Florida va vacation where he commented that wife/daughter looked "great."  (No, not posting wife pics today, fellas).  

She showed me a video on her phone yesterday and I swiped off her app and took a quick glance of her FB messages. Low and behold this guy had chatted her up last week.
I asked her about it today and she said he was asking for prayer requests for his mom etc.  

Sound innocuous enough, but I ain't buying it either.  You want a prayer request go to church, or find a group of friends that you can pray with etc.  Messaging a married woman for a prayer request out of the blue falls outside appropriate to  me.  

Which leads me to the point or question or this, is it appropriate for a married woman to chat, or private message with another man, outside business or work related conversation?  Or vice versa.

Man, I’ve had guys try and move in on my wife. I think you have to decide if you want to fight for her or let her go. I’ve nipped crap in the bud from jump and with the quickness. It’s my woman you damn right I love her and I’m protective of our relationship and I do get jealous because I love her.

Tell her how you feel and ask her not to communicate with other men socially. I think any women that loves a man will respect him and care about him feelings. It’s not being controlling to guard your woman. You know what he wants and your wife knows too. He wants some ass. If she wants attention give it to her by squashing that right now.

Is she ok with you communicating with other women socially? If so, she doesn’t care about you romantically anymore.

Oh boy............

In this thread we find out which men have been cheated on and who hasn't.

Lots of naive dudes in the World. You don't actually know.....until you know.

What matters THE MOST is how YOU FEEL ABOUT IT!!

Your gut........how it makes you feel.......TRUST THAT!

In the age of discrete and semi discrete messaging through technology, all kinds of shit gets started by "innocent" banter through those platforms.

At the end of the day it could mean NOTHING.........but, I have known and experienced way too much in and around my life to not at bare minimum be suspicious.

If it bothers you.....its a problem. You need to be completely honest and transparent about that to and with your wife.

What anybody else thinks about that doesn't matter. It's not anybody else's relationship.

I personally know way too many men that have been completely blind sided by their wife f#cking around on them with "friends" and co-workers etc.......IN EVERY CASE in hindsight the clues where there for them to see.......they just dismissed them as being "normal" or "my wife isn't like that".......or "I trust my wife" etc. EVERY FREAKING ONE!

Only you can answer that. If that’s a boundary that you set, and are willing to enforce, then it’s not appropriate. Tell her “I won’t be in a relationship with a woman who has male friends”. Be prepared to eject when she decides her emotional affair is more important that your marriage. This option requires backbone and strength of convictions. Women will default to shaming language in protest

Oh boy............

In this thread we find out which men have been cheated on and who hasn't.

Lots of naive dudes in the World. You don't actually know.....until you know.

What matters THE MOST is how YOU FEEL ABOUT IT!!

Your gut........how it makes you feel.......TRUST THAT!

In the age of discrete and semi discrete messaging through technology, all kinds of shit gets started by "innocent" banter through those platforms.

At the end of the day it could mean NOTHING.........but, I have known and experienced way too much in and around my life to not at bare minimum be suspicious.

If it bothers you.....its a problem. You need to be completely honest and transparent about that to and with your wife.

What anybody else thinks about that doesn't matter. It's not anybody else's relationship.

I personally know way too many men that have been completely blind sided by their wife f#cking around on them with "friends" and co-workers etc.......IN EVERY CASE in hindsight the clues where there for them to see.......they just dismissed them as being "normal" or "my wife isn't like that".......or "I trust my wife" etc. EVERY FREAKING ONE!



Good post.

I've been through similar shit myself. You feel that somethings wrong, then chase your tail lying to yourself about the truth.

TRUST YOUR GUT




Good way to look at it.  I am not sure what goes into a "gut feeling" but it in my case is right way more often than not. If you sense distrust then there is cause.  If you were not serious about the relationship you wouldn't notice

Could be a lot of divorces are also caused by overbearing, controlling husbands, and lack of trust.

Slightly less than half the replies say this is acceptable behavior.

Coincidentally, the divorce rate in this country is also slightly less than 50%.

Telling someone they cannot do something is controlling. Telling someone you will not be in a relationship with them if they do certain things is not controlling. It’s setting boundaries and given that person a choice.

That conversation needs to include her pm right then and saying im uncomfortable having discussions w you and I dont want you to contact me again, while you are sitting there. Then if anything happens later after that, you have your answer. WEASELS only stay by invitation from the target....

Should add that if she gets defensive about him seeing the PMs or claims she erased them....I got some bad news.

Which is also 100% perfectly fine if you’re not an insecure little boy about your relationship. The fact that you and many others in GD view this to be an issue is incredibly informative. Hate to break it to you, but sometimes your girl’s going to have private personal interactions and conversations without you whether you’re monitoring her social media accounts or not. Some of those private conversations will even be about you! ??

Why do you think she’d cheat on you? Have you done something to make you think your wife would jump ship given the opportunity? Perhaps you should be considering what’s wrong with you to make you think your wife’s looking for an opportunity to trade up


With the dude that used to deliver supplies at her office? Context dude, it's everything.


YES. Platonically compatible, interesting people meet each other under any number of circumstances.

The only context that matters here is OP clearly doesn’t trust his wife not to cheat on him. The question that then needs to be answered is why that is

The existence of someone else isn't going to make you love your partner less.

If the relationship fails it's only due to the bond of those that agreed to be together.

Lol. Yeah, I'm sure women DMing dudes on FB has no correlation to the divorce rate.

You're playing mental gymnastics.

The question is easy - does the likelihood of divorce go up or down when a spouse is DMing other men on FB?

The answer is even easier. If you value your marriage, do not engage in behavior that increases your chances of divorce.

Too many of these posts are centered around what they feel and want in a relationship.

When it’s about OP and his relationship.

What are you looking for OP? Reassurance? Result?

Based on your original post I think at worse he’s hanging around for an opportunity to weasel his way in. Keeps popping in once in a while to see if there’s problems she wants to confide in.

So I have a question for you. Have you guys had rough patches? Has she been confiding in him? If they have been friends in real life or social media for a while and the answer is no, then you’re concerns are not your worst fear.

Months ago, noticed that this guy was "liking" or commenting on every one of my wife's social media posts. Asked her about it, if he knew the guy and what his deal was. Just basic intel gathering. Apparently guy used to deliver supplies to her workplace office, no big deal she said.  Still kind of stuck with me, especially after he commented on my wife's pic from her Florida va vacation where he commented that wife/daughter looked "great."  (No, not posting wife pics today, fellas).  

She showed me a video on her phone yesterday and I swiped off her app and took a quick glance of her FB messages. Low and behold this guy had chatted her up last week.
I asked her about it today and she said he was asking for prayer requests for his mom etc.  

Sound innocuous enough, but I ain't buying it either.  You want a prayer request go to church, or find a group of friends that you can pray with etc.  Messaging a married woman for a prayer request out of the blue falls outside appropriate to  me.  

Which leads me to the point or question or this, is it appropriate for a married woman to chat, or private message with another man, outside business or work related conversation?  Or vice versa.
