Do you think that a woman can ever be friends with a married man?

24 Comments

So what is your opinion on this question? Also in reverse a married woman be friends with a man or both are married.

I know there are people out there that believe that women and men can't ever be friends. I believe they can just as long as they aren't hanging out all the time. Maybe 3 times a month at most.

Plus like the main question asks if a married man can or in reverse. I say just as long as the guy/gal can take his/her spouse or the spouse already knows the man/woman at least somewhat.

Marriage should be about trust and if you can't handle your spouse hanging out with opposite sex every once in a while then you have problems and shouldn't been married in the first place. Or you can just get therapy or learn how to control it better. I know that seems harsh but you should trust your spouse and not be paranoid about the relationship. That is unless they are with the other person a lot and there is proven evidence in front of you that somehting isn't right.

This is just my opinion though. ^^

    just because you enjoy a persons company, doesn't mean you want to have sex with them. NOT EVEN CLOSE! Why can't people just be friends without others assuming they want sex involved in their friendship?? It happens all the time, and it's healthy that way! Like friends you've known all your life but never had a sexual interest in.

      A married man is better off not being alone with another woman. It's common sense.

            Sorry, I should rephrase my question. What if your wife was bisexual? Then, wouldn't it be "improper" for her to spend time alone with anybody, by your logic?

            When I asked "what if he's bisexual", I was thinking of the scenario described in the post where the man is married, not the woman. I've rephrased it to fit the scenario you were talking about.

              Couldn't happen unless she turned bi after marriage in which case I would wonder "how did this happen?"

          Everyone would agree with my response. Sorry you don't like it. Don't inquire if you only want to hear what you agree with. I wouldnt want my wife alone with another man.

          Now if you have an open relationship or there's no real commitment then that's a whole different thing if you're into that.

          But it is common sense.

              But from your response yes it's better not too.

              But at the same time it depends on the maturity level. Come on... if you don't trust your wife then you shouldn't of married her in the first place. I would let my husband once in a while hangout with his gal friends just as long as it's not all the time and I know them too.

              Goodness me myself would never cheat on my husband, "never". If I realised I started having other feelings for my guy friend like an "adult" then I would tell my husband and maybe hangout with my friend less and in groups.

    I often joke and say that my husband has a harem. He has many female friends and it doesn't bother me. They happen to be my friends too.

    Yes mairage is about trust. I like to think I am very trustworthy, and love my wife, but every woman I know , specially my girl "friends" I have thought about fucking. Probably would if the right or wrong situation came along. We are animals atracted to sex. So as long as you dont hang out one on one then youre safe. because as soon as you are fighting with your spouse and end up hanging with your hot, lonely ,cool , understanding "friend" Youre gonna hit that.

    ...I am a married woman and Im friends with single men. But, I find all of them horribly ugly.
    just kidding! yah its possible but there are certain lines you shouldn't cross, like don't play mental games, don't flirt with them and don't ever let them see you undressing etc.

    I how like others are generalizing here. If you think more logically into it there is such a thing called asexuality and plus there is a percentage that exists that don't have that attraction. I do here stories about guys thinking why did you think that I thought of you that way after the lady and guy have hungout for a while and he just wants to be friends. So the answer would be yes.

    But why can't anybody actually give an answer which I had posted earlier to why the say "NO" or "YES".

      Also, I'm a bisexual woman. If I were to stop hanging out with everybody whose gender allows me to be attracted to them, I wouldn't have any friends.

    I feel that it's only insecure relationships in which people get so uncomfortable about their spouse hanging out with the opposite gender, and we just so happen to live in a society where this kind of insecurity and jealousy is often portrayed as normal and a sign that you "truly love the person". I call bollucks personally.
