Would you?

Would you let your husband go to a movie with a mutual female friend, alone?

It really depends on the female.
And whether you trust your hubby.

Probably not....though it does depend on who it is, I guess. If it were my best friend, I really wouldn't have a problem with it. Even though that might look funny if someone from church saw the two of them sharing a popcorn, LOL.

How about the flipside? Would your husband let you go to a movie with a mutual male friend, alone?

I wouldn't care, but hey you all know how I feel.

Seriously....why would someone's husband want to go to a movie with a female other than his wife? And why would a female want to go with someone else's husband?

With a controlled fire, you don't get burnt, let one get out of control and it destroys everything.

My husband has several female friends, but he never really spends time alone with any of them (except once he spent a few hours with my best friend Ashley because I was out of town and he really needed to pass the time, poor guy didn't know what to do with himself...they picked me up as soon as I got back in town though and we all had a great time). If he has a friend that he really likes, he is so excited about me meeting him or her that we all just hang out and that's how it continues in the future too because then we all know each other.

I guess it just depends on the guy and how much you trust him and the female in question, but like Janet said, why would he want to?

Maybe you could suggest that you go along to get to know his female friend better? Is it a movie you would be interested in as well? Good luck.

The female is the wife of my friend from high school. We have started spending a lot of time with them as a couple. There is a movie out that i'm really not keen on seeing because i'm afraid it will frighten me & i'm not a big fan of scary movies.

I have a lot of male friends that i have been friends with for ages. However, when it got right down to it, i would not feel comfortable going to movie with them alone anymore. My husband would allow it no questions asked, but i just don't feel right about.

I guess he got a little peeved because when he asked I was like NO way Jose, & he doesn't like being told he can't do something. After we talked & I told him I wasn't comfortable with him or I doing it, he seemed to be more open.

I'm just thinking about the fire thing. It's not that I don't trust him, but I see things way in the future. Like they start doing more stuff together, she becomes his best friend instead of me, I'm left home all alone all the time (my husband really is the only person I do stuff with), & then we have a fight & something bad happens.

There you go!! You've answered your own question. Why start something that could possibly end up a disaster? Even though you trust him and trust her...you never really know what kind of 'chemistry' could happen...why take the chance.

Have you been asked to go along? if you have and you do not fancy the movie then yes just trust him, but if you have not been asked then no no no.
