friday hax chat q: she has been friends with the married dude since high school. now, they have become closer than just friends (nothing physical)

Sterling, VA
Carolyn, Please knock some sense into me. I've been very good friends with a guy that i briefly dated in college, someone I've known since high school. We're in our late 20s now and he's been married for years. We've retained our friendship through the years and have even gotten closer as time has gone by. His wife doesn't know how close we are and recently our friendship has turned more intimate. Not in terms of physical cheating, but in terms of the amount we confide in each other and talking about very personal things. I've never felt that we've had anything but a platonic friendship, but I am starting to feel weird about our intimacy, especially now that he's married. What do I do? If i break off the friendship, I lose a great friend that has been in my life since high school. If I don't do anything, I will probably feel increasingly uncomfortable with being so close with someone who is married. I'm at a loss. I don't want to lose my friend, but I'm not comfortable with discussing such close, intimate things with a man who is taken. I don't have feelings for him, but I do believe he married the wrong person. Please help!!

  - of course not, he's got a girl friend he can unload all his troubles on. plus a wife to jam. win win! -- nm - moles Feb 25, 11:19
I wanna know what the hell they are talking about that is making her uneasy. Phone sex? -- nm - sycor Feb 25, 11:07
"So, does your wife know we're doing this?" Where is the guy's responsibility in all this? Shift that responsibility to him. -- nm - con_carne Feb 25, 11:02

"His wife doesn't know how close we are..." = danger, Will Robinson. -- nm - TFox Feb 25, 10:56
draw him into an affair, blackmail him into leaving his wife, and then he'll be all yours! -- nm - znufrii Feb 25, 10:55
