My DW leaves it in my hands and I told her what I was going to do, that is this......I am sending her one last email telling her how I feel about her saying those things about my wife. Then I am deleting my account, further since this friend can contact me through our work system I am blocking her from sending me anything there, we have changed our phone numbers and that should do it.

Again....thanks for your opinion......no offense taken, you're a gem.
Thanks ((50Guy)) - I'm relieved you didn't take offense at my post. I consider you my friend here on the boards, so I wanted to be straight but knew I had to risk touching a possible nerve. Several times during the 4 hr edit period, I almost deleted my post a few times lol.

I realize you never confided in details about your marriage. The fact this woman did confide in you about her husband, was a betrayal to him. When a couple confides like this, an emotional bond happens and that's what I object to. I think married couples should have friends together and of course you having guy friends separate is fine - but having an emotional bond like you described isn't healthy. Relationships like this boost the self esteem of those involved but weakens those not involved( your wife/her husband)

I happy you're going to take care of this the right way. I know you're a gentleman and will do the right thing regarding you marriage.
