Hey Mike
Haven't checked in a while so sorry if I touch old stuff. Well the friend thing I'm in the total bs camp. As you know the friend story is usually cover for I'm interested in this person, and like I have said before if she prefers his company to yours it's not long until she finds herself wondering why she shouldn't be with him instead. At the very least you are inviting the comparison of why you can't be like him.

IMHO the whole you not letting her have friends thing is a total smokescreen, and most people cheating will throw that one out there to guilt you into letting them walk all over you. The friendship is inappropriate in my view and you are within your right to restrict it.......or.......she could just leave get the divorce and have all the improper relationships she desires.

I know of one story on post where a guy's wife just had a friend everybody told him otherwise but he wouldn't believe until he walked in on them. Very messy for the command as you can imagine.

As for the hospital thing, 25 can probably answer this better but I doubt they did much besides give her mild medication and press the NEXT! Button.

I think you need to continue moving forward, one day she may realize what's at stake here, it may even be before its too late. Keep chugging though or she'll just keep taking you for granted.
