I'm married. Happily. The other day I got a CERTAIN WAY THROUGH the below list, in real life, with a female good friend of mine.

My question is this -- which of the numbers below, if reached, is the first time you'd warn her off? Which number would I have had to reached to be considered in 'cheating' territory?


Hopefully you choose a higher number than I got to!! Very nervous about this one .. it's a true story until a certain number I reached ..


1) Going to t'pub with female friend and not wife (but wife aware you're both going).
2) She's dressed up bigtime -- really made an effort -- and keeps going on about how AMAZING you look, and how [wife] is a lucky girl.
3) She kisses you on the cheek when you see her and gives you a 'hug squeeze thing'
4) she holds hands with you as you walk to the bar with her for some reason as if she's being 'friendly flirty nothing in it'
5) She hugs you again (longer) and says she's been missing you so much and when you sit down she keeps finishes off her sentences with putting her hands on your legs or kissing your cheek more and saying 'we should meet up more often'
6) Next time she comes back to the table from the loo she sits on your knee even though there's a perfectly good chair opposite .. because 'she likes you'. She starts going on about how its great to get away from her b/f for a while and how bored she is of him.
7) Kicking out time at the bar .. as you both leave she grabs hold of both your hands and pulls you facing her in some alleyway by the side of the pub saying 'Just come here a minute I want to say something to you ..'
8) She kisses you 'goodbye' on the cheek in the alleyway but at the last minute turns her head so its on the lips. We both pull away, and both laugh as if she did it by accident, but she didn't.
9) The second kiss is more of a lingering thing -- maybe 5 seconds. Then again you both laugh and say 'oops' and pretend you're drunker than you are
10) 30 second full snog, yours hands are on her backside during it.
11) Back to her place .. who cares?

If you cared about your relationship you'd of probably seen it coming at point 4/5/6 and then prevented the rest from happening.

You probably wouldn't want your wife holding another guys hand as they walk to the bar.

I'm guessing all of them happened.
 
Dont know how to categorise it but i would imagine the wife would be starting to get concerned at around number 4?

I would get concerned at 5.
 
She fancies you and you obviously fancy her. I don't even need to know which number you got to.;)

"ssahm rhe typas" anagram :)
 
Depends on what limits/agreements you have agreed with your wife. Probably around 4 or 5 for most people.
 
Definately number 4.

Bingo. Holding hands with another woman whilst dating another - when it is obvious something is going on / not solely influenced by alcohol - would be enough to cause problems.

If I saw my hypothetical girlfriend holding the hands of another man, I would not be best pleased.

I must add though, 1-3 are total non-events.
 
number 4 - you're obviously not that happily married and obviously don't mind this attention or you would have nipped it in the butt immediately.
 
#4
why would you be holding hands with a friend? if your already in a relationship.

holding hands with a member of the oposite sex on a night out is pretty much you tellinjg everyone your an item
 
Up to which number would you be happy to tell your wife about? I think that answers your question.

Summary, dont get married:)
