Need your opinion - Am friends with a married man whom I met online

He has conditions about me texting him - should correspond only during working hours on weekdays. That too he is often busy with work. No messages once he reaches home - if is not like I send anything obscene, just normal conversation. Even if I send him a text in the evening he will not reply.
Strictly no texting during weekends.
He went on a 3-week vacation to visit his daughter in Singapore. Absolutely no contact.

Would you continue with such a “friendship” or drop it? He’s afraid of hurting his wife - that’s why all these “rules”. I’m not even his lover, just a friend. Is it worth it? Am I losing my self respect?

What would you’ll do?

That’s an easy one... his friendship with you is secret and does not want his wife/family to know. Most women would have issues with their husbands talking to women online...

@SW-User thank heaven's I'm not most then because I have no issue with my hubby having female friends to chat to. I trust him explicitly..

@Primnproper When one snags him online, remember my dear that he had your blessing... 👍🏻

@SW-User wow! That's a cynical view..if your man is getting all he needs and feels wanted and appreciated why should he go elsewhere and not all men are douche bags, might pay you to remind yourself of that now and then.

@SW-User I won't apologise for having a man i can trust..you're right we can agree to disagree because the minute I had your attitude id know it's time to be a alone without a partner. Have a good evening.☺

SW-User

@Primnproper thank you for the insult ... i can tell you are a happy camper simply cause I disagree.... why don’t you let it go? Everyone does not think like you do! Godspeed!

SW-User

@Primnproper I didn’t ask you for the first apology... I only posted my opinion and it seems you have an issue with MY opinion...

@SW-User you're welcome ..and I didn't have an issue with your reply just added I'm glad I'm not one of those women, and then you deemed to imply that he would succumb to one of them if I allowed him to carry on, which is a very rude assumption from you and we know what assumptions make people. I prefer not to tar all men with the same brush..☺

@Primnproper You did come across as if you were superior to those women who don't want their hubby's talking to other women. I don't mind it either but I'm not dumb enough to think that he won't ever stray just because he gets all he needs at home. That's is only one reason a man cheats.

@Primnproper There is noone we can trust 100 percent. Some one can be happy at home an still succumb to temptation and there are many easy temptations. Did I say [u]many[/u] easy and ready? Yeah lol.

SW-User

@katielass I agree!

@SW-User oh Lord yes!!!
