NotGuilty,

Please let me say, I'm "the FLAME" you accuse of befriending your husband. You might notice my name, "600 miles away" (that's a clue). I'm sorry you felt compelled to bring my husband and family into your mess. Let me remind you, they are also "600 miles away". My husband knows about my friendship, we are completely honest with each other. This honesty grows from trust, and trust is something that can't be given to someone, it must be earned. I would suggest you stop calling my husband at home and work. It's really too bad we can't be friends...I think you need a good friend. Anyway, if you would like to respond, pleae feel free to do so. I look forward to hearing from you. As far as I can tell, talking with people over the internet about intimate feelings is what this site is all about. It helps to talk to others sometimes, which is exactly what we did (600 miles away)!

</font><hr /></blockquote><font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial">So 600, your response to Not Guilty compels me to ask you, are you here to marriage build? Do you want to recover your marriage and build a strong union with your husband again so you DON'T have to seek out other women's husband's as "intimate friends" who share intimate feelings that only husbands and wives should be sharing?

And, I just have to ask, if you and your husband have such a tight trusting bond, as you state up above, why then is it necessary to share intimate feelings with another male instead of YOUR OWN husband?

Resilient,

I totally agree with you. I feel like she is trying to justify what we can call an "emotional affair". A third party who is not professionally trained (such as a marriage counselor) should not be involved in a marriage situation like this. Please consider your thought process here "600 miles away".
