Depends on the relationship. I personally have guy friends and my husband has girl friends. Chatting is fine, even hanging out(with your spouse) is generally fine as long as you don't have to lie about the relationship. The first sign to a potentially bad situation is feeling like you have to lie about it. And of course, you should never put yourself in a situation that your spouse would be uncomfortable with. But these opposite sex friendships can be good for the relationship. For example , when you tick your wife off, you can talk to a girl friend and maybe she can better translate why your wfie is upset without the high emotions and give you her thoughts on how to get back in your wife's good graces. But again, you should always respect your spouses feelings and never hang out for long periods of time with any woman(unattended) or hang out with anyone that your wife is uncomfortable with. Even the strongest relationships can be destroyed by rumor if you are putting yourself in inappropriate situations and lets face it...people talk. shashadani 19 months ago
