Do you think is it wrong if married woman make friend with other man?

this is ridiculous... if ur pal lisa has some shred of self-respect, she wouldnt have accepted the jewellery from her pal... after all she met him through chatting only and he cant be trusted completly!! and i agree with her hubby's insecurity!! i dont see anything wrong wid her making pals with this chap...just dont give any reason to make this guy get some wrong ideas.... and people dont go around giving jewellery to married women!!

your friend should honor her husbands request and do as he says. she wouldn't be pleased if some woman he made friends with gave him stuff as presents. it's disrespectful. my (ex)husband had a problem with me talking to my ex boyfriends and it was stricly platonic. They would NEVER give me jewerly (that man wants something more with your friend..) and he didn't bother to tell me that he had a problem with it until it was too late. At least her husband is telling her that he's upset.

I can understand her husband is feeling jealous because there is another man doing something for her that he's suppose to be doing, she didn't have to tell him about the gifts not to cause an issue. He just feels threated, she should put herself in his shoe.

I do not feel that there is anything wrong with a married woman having a male friend or vice versa as long as they are able to respect the fact that they are married and are willing to be just friends. I am single and have married female friends and we are able to keep it to just friendship and nothing more than that.

If I were in her husband's shoes i definitely would be angry because I wouldn't want that to happen and i would feel insecure.It's okay to have friends but we should know our limitations because we might get in trouble.

I can understand her husbands anger. I mean, this stranger...that she met online...came to her and gave her jewlery. That kind of sounds like he was really crossing the boundary and attempting to date her. However, her husband must trust her and her intentions. Without trust a relationship will never last. This is a very important thing to have. Therefore, I agree that he overreacted, however, I also agree that he had reason to.

I think her husband did the normal thing any man would do. Just tell lisa to imagine the opposite way, what if it's her husband who met a woman from the net and the woman give her husband luxurious things, will Lisa be just OK with it?

One: She should of never went to meet or agree to meet another man from another country that she met online alone. Two: A person should never accept jewelry from another man especially if she doesn't know him well. Three: If all she wanted was to make a friend then why didn't she invite her husband to come along as well? I met my husband online and I was lucky but there are some people not so lucky. My husband knows everyone I chat with online because I keep him informed and if someone wants to call me especially if it is a guy I run it by him first. I nor he thinks it is wrong if a woman has male friends but sounds like your friend Lisa left her husband out of the loop from the start so can't blame her husband for over reacting. What would she do if he met someone chatting a beautiful blonde and went and had coffee and well she gave him a watch or something? How would lisa feel if he didn't tell her?

A friendship between opposite sexes when someone is married is Okay as long as certain guidelines are followed The husband and or wife knows about the friendship and knows who the friend is. The friend never infringes on the husband's terrain. I have men friends, my husband knows of them and visa versa. I have been alone with these men but not often nor for very long, it would be inappropriate. Usually less than 10 minutes. A gift of jewelry from another man other than your husband unless they are a male relative is very inappropriate. Go to meet another man without your husband is wrong too. Especially when the other guy is single. Now there may be some exceptions: For instance one male friend of my and my husband's broke his leg and could not drive. He was no married at the time and did not know a lot of people. He had been a co worker of my husbands who had invited him to dinner and we had all become friends, he babysat for us occassionally. When he broke his leg he asked me and my husband if I could drive him to and from his doctor appointments. We neither saw any problem with that and I had our children with us too. A few dirty minded people speculated on this but we only went to town to his appointments and occassionally I did some shopping while in town and we had my children along. Not a place for clandinstine affairs with four small children along all the time. Though some people tried to insinuate such. We laughed about this. All of us. But that was the only time I ever went with another man not related and it was for a short time and eventually the guy met his wife through us. But he never gave me jewelry and I would not have accepted it. I think the most expensive thing he bought me was a cheeseburger and shake when we stopped for lunch on one of the trips to town and he bought all the kids drinks and burgers too. But your friend was way out of line meeting some guy in a chat room and then meeting him without her husband and accepting jewelry from this guy. He was not really a true friend. Her husband had ever right to be angry. NO more than that, right. That is what my ex dil said to the judge when she told him my son did not want her to have friends. My son said he did not mind her having friends but did object to former boyfriends that were single that wanted to hang around when he was not home. She was caught red handed having an affair when my son got home from classes early one day. And it was my sons fault????? The appalling part was the judge saying my son was too controlling over whom she could have for friends. What man wants his wifes ex boy friends hanging around and hitting on his wife?

I think your friend Lisa is quite naive in choosing a friend and also ignorant about how man think. She must have been hiding from her friend that she is a married woman or had been flirting with him online, giving him the impression that she is going to date with him. Besides, she seems like does not have any idea how to avoid or purposely did it. Coz i know most girls like the sensation of flirting, if they cannot get it from their bf or husband, they will look somewhere else. No true love involved, but treat it as a game. I think she is also quite ignorant about how his husband think when doing these thing. For me, i also feel that it's really insecure to be with her. If her friend know she is married, i don't think he will give her jewelry as the present, unless he is super rich. But guys giving such a luxurious gift, they will expect something in return. Your friend should not accept such expensive gift as well. I just think it's ood to do so. This will further make him believe that Lisa is available for him. I don't think her husband is over-reacting but, he could take a better approach and talk about it in a mild and gentle way. Express his concern and educate her if she is really ignorant and naive in people relationship.

Ok...Now we turn the situation in opposite direction. Now, his husband make a new friend (woman) and he receive and gift from her. will she get mad? Will she ask her husband to throw away the gift? SO think in all angle and direction before making any decision.

in india it i wrong only because of our culture as after marriage friendship dosent say anything , but excess of meetings for friendship makes a wrong way , or wrong meanings in society so its better for a women to have friend with meetings but only inpresence of her husband answer to your last line is a man dosen like do so ever that her wife talk with other man also with his brother sometimes this things happens only those places where these positions available.

Tell her to respect her husbasnd's feelings. Her husband is the only male friend she should have.

well Friend not at all and anything more than that YES. Limits have to be set.

Her husband must be jelous about the friendship. I think this is quite natural behavoiur. Lisa has to convince he husband how much she loves and care for him. The man who brought jwellary was her friend and nothing more.

well i think it is obvious hes jealous coz hes a man too...if you recieve gifts from other man that is something to be think about...

Your freind's husband is damn insecure.There's nothing wrong in what the friend did.Ask her to talk with her husband and sort matters out.They need to spend more time in order to get some trust in.

This is all crazy!! Your friend lisa shouldn't have accepted the freaking gift. How would she feel if a woman will do the same thing to her husband. I don't think that her husband is over reacting it is just a normal response of a husband who loves his wife. And why would a married woman chatting in the internet with a complete stranger. This is just crazy. And your friend Lisa still has the guts to get angry? Wow, she really doesn't get it. At that phase of giving that kind of gift is not a mere of just making friends, i think it is courtship.

i think it is better not do that, there is no true friendship between man and woman , and after several days ,you will find the small changes among you and your so-called boyfriend

No... I think there's nothing wrong it. The husband just dont trust the wife, or maybe on my own opinion the husband is angry because he's the one doin' something wrong... I've been into that experience, my hubby always get angry even for simple reasons, but then, i found out, thats his strategy... Uh! I dont know, but, i think theres nothin wrong with it.
