It is dangerous to involve too many people in your marital relationship. My father always said, "Don't take sides with friends who are having marital problems. They will get back together and get all lovey-dovey, and you are out in the cold as the person who said bad things about the spouse. Your reward is that they'll both hate you."
It makes it hard to reconcile when you have involved family, friends and the boss in the dirty laundry of your home life.
