My husband's emotional affair

[justpeachy]

And what do I do if I put my foot firmly down on that and he puts up a huge fight about it? He's got a whole bunch of people (his female friends, guy friends, even his parents) that seem to think there's nothing wrong with him having close female friends who he hangs out with one-on-one from time to time. So how do I actually convince him that it's necessary to protect our marriage, and that it's not about me just trying to "control" him? I feel like if he refuses to budge on it that I have two choices: give in to what he wants or leave the marriage. And I really, really do not want the latter option.
