ummm

A close friend of mine’s husband added me on facebook. I thought it was accidental. I asked my friend and she knows. She does not mind but I feel not right. So what do I do? Do I add him or what do I say to my friend?

Re: ummm

Add him.

Re: ummm

Don't make it a big deal!!
Add him.

Re: ummm

^Why? I do not want to add a friend's husband. It just seems really weird.

Re: ummm

See you can make it soo much worse then is actually is, by making a big deal out of nothing. If his wife knows and is fine with it, then you should have no problem, and just add him. Now if you are conservative and do not want to be friends with random guyz on facebook, which is fine , then don't add him. Maybe your thinking that if your husband did that, you wouldn't like it, and thats fine too, but she clearly is okay with it, so don't make a big deal out of nothing.

Re: ummm

add him and put him on limited profile.

Re: ummm

That's nice advice. However I have got photos there etc etc. He is married to my friend, I would feel uncomfortable for him to be able to see my photos. Also I did not think about it but yes if my husband went around adding my friends on facebook I would be rather stingy about it as well. I would not like it.

I am not going to make a deal out of it, just wanted to know your opinions before I do whatever I want to do.

What kind of contact do you have with them?

Some of our Pakistani family friends used to talk less to the wives of their friends. When visiting the females had to sit in separate rooms from the males. Then we have Pakistani family friends who all used to mix with each other, every male would talk to the female, nobody made problems about it.

If your friend doesn't mind and if you usually do all talk to each other in normal life, when you people meet each other, then in my opinion you could add him.

But if you really don't feel right about it, then don't. Even if you all do talk with each other, mix with each other.

Don't go all girl on him!!!!
I could be one of the half million things. You denying would be rude.
He is not dating your friend he is her HUSBAND you are married too.
So fling is very unlikely.

Add him in for nowl, And don't talk after.

Re: ummm

hey rabia Nice to see you back!

Re: ummm

nothing wrong with adding him. It's nice to have a relationship of some sort with your sister/bros/friends spouse.......but if you feel uncomfortable then dont. Just dont mention it to them unless they bring it up first.

Re: ummm

Notorious we are the kind of family where women sit with women and men sit with men at gatherings etc. Conservative type. Even my friends etc. We do talk but not that often.

PM that is a good advice. I will see if I can add him. But he just added me today I will not accept it today. Will take my sweet time in accepting his request.

Not good!!
no girly stuff with this dude. Consider him your bro.

Re: ummm

^ but i do that with any add on facebook girl or boy. If you accept too early, it makes you look like your hungry for friends and have no life .So give it atleast 3-4 days. :D

yep...agreed. He should be treated like her bro...however like Aisha said she comes from a conservative family. Perhaps in her family there is no such thing as "like a bro" either u are or you arent.

anyway nothing wrong with adding him...like PM said add him then keep a distance if you want.

Re: ummm

oh my god - it's no big deal, just add him.

If you don't want him to look at your pictures, then you can block him from seeing specific albums on your profile.

Re: ummm

^haha I have alot of friend requests on facebook and I still did not accept anyone of them so my friend’s husband if I do decide to add him will be added after some time:cb:..

I also thought that^when I said I will take my sweet time and add him:D

Re: ummm

Angie you are right there is no such thing as brothers. In our family we can be married to cousins and even those are not brothers for us. I will do consider him as a brother when I add him.

OK fine I will add him.

Re: ummm

dont add, i bet he's a creep and is after you (or atleast will sprout off many such threads in life1 in the next few days).

see what I mean. Girls would be girls not matter what.
