Hmmm.... I keep thinking about this point. I hope you have told her that when your friend shuts your H out, she's not helping you when she does that. The idea is for yoru friend to offer your H someone SAFE to talk to about his marriage... particularly given his apprehension with professional counsellors AND your friend's intimate confidence with you, that is almost the ideal arrangement... as she can tell you everything he said and you can help coach her on giving him the constructive advice he needs.

When she shuts him out, she's just driving him back to OW for advice... which I can't imagine is what you want... This goes back to the guerilla divorce busting video (not sure if you watched it), but being a friend means doing what you need to help therm get their marriage back on track, and not allowing personal sympathies to take control... she's frustrated with him as you are, but she can't give up on him if you don't want to...
