Jealous friend. Should I confront him?

[bornl33t]

Wow, did you type that with a straight face? You don't think it's acceptable for a man to help a married woman solve a math problem? Holy molly, whats this world coming too?

Ravishingeddie: Obviously your friend has some self confidence issues, if he doesn't feel he can trust you or his wife you need to cut your losses and move on to other friends, people like that only cause you trouble in the long run.

In the very least confront him and let him know he's being ridiculous.

Unless you have a history of sleeping with peoples wives that we don't know about.

Wow did you just type that with a straight face?

Rules of common decency call for the respect to avoid even the appearance of the intension's indicated in this thread. I realize in our world today respect AND marriage is for the birds. But that's the way it SHOULD be.

Ahh, how cute, your hommie is too insecure to leave his girl alone.

[silentdeath55]

See what happens when we let women do math..... tell your friend he needs to restrict his wife's reading material to cook books and the Karma Sutra ONLY.

Haha...If math weren't involved you would not be in this predicament. She never would have asked you to help her bake a pie would she?

[geekwarrior]

aren't you the guy who was asking a couple months back if you should pick up a married woman?

maybe your friend knows your true character.

[AirAssault]

Tell him you are not at all interested in her since the last time you had her, she was not all that great.

LOL Yeah that was me but that was a different scenario. I was dancing with a hot chick that ended up being married. I never called her btw. Thank you AO BTW This guy has already cheated on his wife. He told me a couple of weeks back that his wife had a low sex drive and he went out and had sex with a hooker. He told me he regreted it and I told him to not do that again. The other thing that pisses me off about him is that when we were in High School he always told me that he didn't care for school. Girls and sex is all he cared about. He dropped out and just lost his construction job. His wife is half way done with her nursing degree and he still gets mad when she does her homework, instead of listening to him. I have always tried to be there for him, but him not trusting me with his wife just sort of blows me away.

Maybe it's just how he was raised. It's entirely possible he was raised in a 'broken home'. A drunken disorderly father who would lash out at his wife, his sister, mother, etc. Or maybe another male relative that lashed out at women. We learn by seeing and we mimic what we see.

I met a guy down in Alabama once after our family car broke down. This guy towed our car into town to be repaired. On the way to the shop we were cut off which almost caused us to crash. Our tow truck driver yelled out, in a much more obscene manner, "Those rude african american gentlemen!" For which he immediately apologized for by saying, "I'm sorry this was just the way I was raised."

So he may not harbor any issues towards his wife or have any doubts in her loyalty to their marriage, he just may seriously think that because he had a male relative that was abusive that it's okay for him to be so.

Or maybe it's not an abusive relationship based on his past, but an overly protective relationship which was created by an unfaithful mother/step-mother. His fear is that if he doesn't protect/regulate his wife's social life then she will become unfaithful, too.

Or maybe I'm way off base here and read too deep into the situation. Something I do too often...

My guess is the dude has low self esteem. You said he just lost his job in construction, maybe she's all he's got?

[zipity_Bop]

Ok so anyway, me and my friend went to play some soccer earlier today and he invited me to his house for some refreshments so I said ok cool. Anyway his wife was there and she was doing her homework. So me and him are talking and she asks me to help her with a math problem. I helped her and she kind of got close to me so she could hear better. She wasn't hitting on me or anything, but he got pissed off and took her outside and this isn't the first time. When I first saw her she was at a party and I glanced at her and almost in an instant he got up on my face and asked me if I thought his girlfriend was hot. WTF? I don't know maybe I'm wrong. But no way in hell would I even think about hitting on her. I mean this is one of my best friends and even though I'm pretty ravishing i would not hit on her. Never. I just don't know if I should confront him about it or just ignore it and avoid him.

just play the Gin blossoms - Hey jealousy, on a a constant loop when your w/ him he'll get the picture

Kill two birds with one stone. Tell him you couldn't be interested in his wife because you have the hots for him. That will help his self-confidence AND let him know you're no risk to take his woman away form him.
