Should I say something to my friend?

I've been umm-ing and aah-ing for a while whether to say something to my friend about this and was wondering what it other people might do if they were me? The situation doesn't actually affect me personally which is why I'm in a bit of a dilemma.

This friend is also a work colleague and we are very close, meet up regularly and talk a lot. We work in a very male dominated environment thought the "area" we come under is mainly women. Women in our dept tend to have a reputation for becoming overly friendly with the men and there have been many affairs/flings between married and non married people. I would like to make it clear from the outset that I've stayed well away from this!

My friend is very friendly with a few of these married men and there is always a lot of texting, phone calls, whatsapp-ing, calling them "Hun", when we are on duty calling them up for a chat etc... She also texts and talks to them a lot outside of work. She is single, attractive and a generally very friendly person. Shes also someone who finds it very difficult to be on her own and has had a few relationships with work colleagues, including one for over a year with a married male colleague which don't get me wrong he was just as responsible for!

As a married woman myself I wouldn't like my husband constantly getting texts that while not necessarily say anything inappropriate, are a bit too friendly, from a young single girl. I know that one of these married men, who I am also friends with and will text occasionally about something that happened at work or forward on a joke etc... Gets a lot of texts from her and he's said that he always deletes them at the end of every day. Surely that itself shows that maybe he feels that they are inappropriate?

I don't know whether I should say something about the way she behaves towards these men or not? Like I said as a married woman I would not be happy if I knew this was happening with my husband. Or should I just keep my big nose out as its none of my business/really doesn't affect me in the slightest?!

Thank you for reading!
