I'm thirty seven and 12 00:00:34,440 --> 00:00:37,280 Speaker 1: I've been married for eleven years to my best friend. 13 00:00:37,600 --> 00:00:39,800 Speaker 1: We met in eighth grade and we've been in love 14 00:00:39,960 --> 00:00:42,760 Speaker 1: since then. We also had a lot of We also 15 00:00:42,800 --> 00:00:44,839 Speaker 1: have a lot of close friends from the past that 16 00:00:44,880 --> 00:00:47,839 Speaker 1: we still hang out with. We went to rival high school, 17 00:00:47,920 --> 00:00:50,680 Speaker 1: so my wife is not friendly with some of my 18 00:00:50,800 --> 00:00:54,160 Speaker 1: female friends. I feel blessed that she isn't bothered by 19 00:00:54,200 --> 00:00:57,920 Speaker 1: me hanging with my female friends. But recently I went 20 00:00:57,960 --> 00:01:01,000 Speaker 1: too far with one of my friends and the first 21 00:01:01,040 --> 00:01:04,559 Speaker 1: time I almost had sex with this friend. She said 22 00:01:04,760 --> 00:01:07,880 Speaker 1: if we have sex, she wouldn't stop until I was 23 00:01:07,920 --> 00:01:11,440 Speaker 1: all hers. That kept me away from her for a while, 24 00:01:12,040 --> 00:01:14,479 Speaker 1: but then I got upset with my wife in March, 25 00:01:14,760 --> 00:01:17,160 Speaker 1: and I went running to my friend's house to vent. 26 00:01:17,959 --> 00:01:20,600 Speaker 1: Just seeing my friend made me cheer up, and she 27 00:01:20,800 --> 00:01:24,480 Speaker 1: felt so good pressed up against me. When we hugged, 28 00:01:24,800 --> 00:01:27,520 Speaker 1: I got really caught up, and we had sex a 29 00:01:27,560 --> 00:01:30,399 Speaker 1: few times. She reminded me that if we went all 30 00:01:30,400 --> 00:01:33,080 Speaker 1: the way, she was going to become a problem in 31 00:01:33,120 --> 00:01:37,520 Speaker 1: my life. I should have heeded the warning. Since that night, 32 00:01:37,959 --> 00:01:41,039 Speaker 1: she has not been the same around me and other friends, 33 00:01:41,040 --> 00:01:43,880 Speaker 1: so I've stopped going out with my homies. I have 34 00:01:43,959 --> 00:01:47,200 Speaker 1: given her money and gifts to apologize for whatever she 35 00:01:47,319 --> 00:01:49,800 Speaker 1: might be going through, but I had to stop sending 36 00:01:49,800 --> 00:01:53,200 Speaker 1: her things because she might use them against me. Yesterday 37 00:01:53,320 --> 00:01:55,480 Speaker 1: I tried to smooth things over to see where her 38 00:01:55,560 --> 00:01:59,560 Speaker 1: head is. I told her that we can never be 39 00:01:59,640 --> 00:02:03,000 Speaker 1: more than friends. I told her I was not leaving 40 00:02:03,120 --> 00:02:06,080 Speaker 1: my wife. She took the news so well that I'm 41 00:02:06,120 --> 00:02:09,320 Speaker 1: afraid of what might come next. She has no reason 42 00:02:09,360 --> 00:02:12,600 Speaker 1: to be hurt because she knew what was up from 43 00:02:12,639 --> 00:02:16,680 Speaker 1: the start. I'm scared for my life and my marriage. 44 00:02:16,840 --> 00:02:20,480 Speaker 1: Am I handling this situation with my friend the right way. 45 00:02:20,880 --> 00:02:25,160 Speaker 1: Please help.
