had you said discuss with him as well as me you would be being reasonable

but not with you is a bit harsh,

[fanjolina]

Yes, YABU. Friends should be willing to have such conversations with each other.

[aGalChangedHerName]

You should have been available to talk and listen. That's what friends are for surely?
YABU

[WigWamBam]

Well, yes - of course she should be talking to her husband.

But that doesn't preclude her from talking to you, too. You're meant to be her friend, when all's said and done - she wasn't asking for relationship advice, she was confiding in you.

[jimjamshaslefttheyurt]

If you are friends with the dh too then YWNBU. (Looks like I may be alone with that view though!)

[expatinscotland]

YABU.

[mosschops30]

Im kind of glad youre not my friend what sort of things is she allowed to talk to you about??

IMHO you can talk to your friends about anything and everything and them to you, thats why theyre friends

[jimjamshaslefttheyurt]

"IMHO you can talk to your friends about anything and everything and them to you, thats why theyre friends"

No I don't agree. Everyone has some sort of subject which they don't want to 'go there' if their views are too different.

[orangehead]

If I was a friend of the husband also (dont know if op is) I would feel very uncomfortable put in the position of knowing she is deceiving her dh

[expatinscotland]

you may have done her DH more of a favour if you'd listened to her about why she doesn't want kids.

there could be some reasons that could be worked out.

[unfitmother]

If she is a good friend YABU. If she is an aquaintance, or worse still a mutual friend, YANBU.

[LazyLinePainterJane]

I think that your friend clearly needs some support, there are obviously issues in her relationship.

[jimjamshaslefttheyurt]

Agree orangehead.

It's like if a friend told me she was having an affair and the dh was a friend of mine as well... nope don't want to know.

[orangehead]

Did'nt realise you already posted that jim

[jimjamshaslefttheyurt]

I'm glad you said it, was beginning to think I was alone

Just a thought, if a mnetter was on the ttc boards and desperately wanted a baby then after a while she found out that dh had secretly had the snip wouldnt we all be saying 'what a pig'.

[traceybath]

I think its fair enough to tell her to speak to her DH.

What she's doing is really unfair.

[SheSellsSeashellsByTheSeashore]

you are right she should tell her husband but she also should be able discuss any issues/worrys she has with her friends (you). so yabu telling her that she shouldnt be discussing it with you! thats what friends are for! you tell them whats bothering you and they give you advise and support.
