I'm happily married with dh. Together for 10 years and married for 8. We have dss with us ft and I adore him like my own. Am currently on holiday with dss just the two of us and we are having a fab time but I miss dh like crazy. He is The One lol.
I have a male friend who I met through my old job. He is married with two daughters. We have a similar sense of humour and get on well. The kids play together a few times a year.
He saw my Facebook profile picture of me dss and sent me a DM a bit out of the blue to say how amazing I looked and he really liked my outfit. I was a bit surprised and thanked him before changing the subject to the Spanish heatwave we are experiencing. He went back to the subject of my looks and how great the photo is. I think he might have said I looked fit or hot but I can't bring myself to reread it tbh. It's a summer top but not that revealing and my assets are not great lol.
I'm disappointed about him messaging me like this because I feel uncomfortable and would not like my dh to message another woman like that. Dh and I are very open with our phones etc and I know that if he saw that on there he would not be pleased and I wouldn't blame him.
I feel like I want to block my friend and forget about him because he is no way anyway near as important to me as my marriage. But then I worry that deleting the chat somehow looks like I have something to hide. I could easily never run into him again so blocking is a definite option.
Or Am I being a prude?
(I most definitely do not want to reply something about his wife because I'm worried he could think I'm leading him on, as in like Stop it, Oh actually don't.)
