What i have been wanting to say. It is all about trust. And trust is earned. I have female friends, some of them are committed while others are not. And if my wife had issue with any of them..i would respect her wishes. To me..she would be more important than my long time female friends. And vice verca of course.
In early days of the marriage I was being extra careful about what she might or might not like and now after few years I know with certainty what will she like and what will she have problem/concerns with so I do not even “ask”.
Have expectations, trust someone and you are setting yourself up for disappointment, lower your expectations and you can only be pleasantly surprised. No one’s trust is betrayed until it’s betrayed.
