Just being friendly or something more sinister?

My friend and I are away from home for a few days visiting my friends new niece.

Last night my friend got a phone call from her DH, he is at home with their Dd. He informed her that another female friend of hers,lets call her X, rang him last night. He does not know X very well but she asked him if he would be able to give her a lift that evening, if he was visiting his mother, because she would like to visit her aunt , who lives near his mother. ( the aunt and mother know each other.)

X has a car but it is in the garage.

My friend knows that X's husband is working away at the moment. My friends Dh explained he was not visiting his mother and so could not offer her a lift.

He rang his mother to ask if she had told X's aunt to approach him re. the lift, but she knew nothing about it. His mother has never met X either.

My friend is quite upset about this approach to her husband. X has never asked for lifts before. Is she bu to feel a bit suspicious about this woman's behaviour?

I'm going to go out on a limb and say there is no aunt. It's a code. Does X have pampas grass at all?

Fancy a lift to your Aunt's house?

Actually AandK, saying "May I have a lift to my aunt's?" is tantamount to saying roger me sideways on the breakfast bar in some circles.

Does she mean 'aunt' in the predictive text way...?

The DH obviously thought it sinister or why did he ring his Mum to ask if the Aunt had mentioned to the Mum that she'd asked the Niece to ask the DH (seriously?)?? Hmm?
Or is he very vain OP?

Mpw you are all being most unkind and unsopportive. The OP can't help being a deranged bunny-boiling lunatic who reads rampant bumsex into an innocent request for a lift, can she?

I don't think it is anything sinister she knew your friend was away so asked DH. she probably wanted to visit auntie as her DH is away and she's after a bit of company its not like she ask your friends DH to do something with her.....Not sinister at all :)

No white blouses here - only ageing vamp-type clothes.
