[QUOTE="trinityroyal, post: 84586, member: 3907"] Back to your original question, JoG... It sounds like you and your H have a solid and loving relationship, and are very committed to each other. It also sounds like your lunch with the mechanic was perfectly innocent and nothing to worry about... However, the fact that you are feeling uneasy and uncomfortable about it suggests that there is something there. Gut feelings are there for a reason. It might be that everything is fine this time, but if you and your friend made a habit of getting together for lunch regularly, that something may come of it. Years ago, a male co-worker who always seemed devoted to his wife, asked me to join him for lunch to talk about a project we were working on. Everything was going along fine, talking about work, but I had a funny uncomfortable feeling after the lunch and couldn't put my finger on why. I went on a second (work related) lunch with him, and halfway through he started with the "my wife doesn't understand me..." business (eeew). I cut the lunch short, and made sure never to be alone with him after that. I'm not sure what the mechanic's true feelings are, but the fact that you're uncomfortable, and that your H teases you about this fellow, but not about others...both are telling. All the best, Trinity. [/QUOTE]
