sue,
my h was a "support" to his friend because for some reason her h wasn't, by being a support he was stopping by her home three times a week ( for a half hour or so) talking to her daily, taking her out to lunch and lying to me about it the whole time even after the friendship came out. he developed feelings for her and left not just for her but because he was not happy here.
h still claims there was no pa with her, he did admit to wanting (that was admitted while he was still in i want a d mode) to. but still claims their r never got to that point. it just wasn't like that, they were friends.
I want to believe him and most of the time do believe him. your h sounds like a good man, do you believe him??
