best friend had sex when looking after my dts

I know nothing came of this, but I'm not sure how I feel about it.

Whilst my best friend and her husband were looking after my dts last weekend, he spent 3 hours doing the ironing (a novelty for him believe me!!). His 'payment' for this was a 'quick shag'. His excuse - he was feeling horny.

So basically, whilst the dts and their daughter of the same age (5yrs) were outside playing on the trampoline in the garden, they had a quickie. She tells me it lasted a matter of minutes Shock but the principle is the same - surely?

She is still my best friend and I love her to bits but feel slightly weird about this scenario. Should I?

Yes

Bit over sharey of her too!

FrillyMummy · 22/11/2013 20:43

YANBU. Why did she tell you though??

TEEARDIS · 22/11/2013 20:43

So you never have sex when your children are in the house? Okay, maybe they are asleep, but children wake up.

No. You shouldn't.

Mattissy · 22/11/2013 20:44

No!

Haven't you ever done it yourself?

BatPenguin · 22/11/2013 20:44

I wouldn't be comfortable knowing they were shagging when in charge of my children.

LaurieFairyCake · 22/11/2013 20:45

A

MollyMatey · 22/11/2013 20:46

5 year olds, not babies - and in her house, not yours?

What exactly is the problem? Weird of her to tell you though.

LaurieFairyCake · 22/11/2013 20:46

As long as they weren't selling tickets or cheering them on to orgasm it's fine.

They were outside ffs

Liara · 22/11/2013 20:46

They were out on the trampoline, provided they were out of sight and still able to react quickly if needed it wouldn't bother me.

phantomnamechanger · 22/11/2013 20:46

so three 5 yos unsupervised out on the trampoline - no they should not have been having a quickie, they should have been within sight and earshot

Theas18 · 22/11/2013 20:46

Regardless of what she was doing ( why did she feel the need to tell you?) I assume , at age 5, you would leave them happily playing upstairs/outside etc?

So what's the problem? I assume they shut the door ..

catgirl1976 · 22/11/2013 20:46

I wouldn't have a massive issue with this but if I had been me having the quicky I don't think I would have mentioned it.

Bigfingers · 22/11/2013 20:48

What FrillyMummy said. Why on earth did she tell you that^ ?

meditrina · 22/11/2013 20:48

So the DC were all OK and saw nothing?

And it probably took less time than, say, checking the tyre pressures and pumping up as required, or a myriad other domestic chores.

I think I'm Envy

bochead · 22/11/2013 20:48

WTF?????

oh hell no!

Sorry I'm gonna go out on a limb and say I'd find this totally unacceptable.

Nought to stop a married couple having their quickie after I'd collected my kidlets.

Steps back and waits for the abuse to start lol!

TheCrumpetQueen · 22/11/2013 20:48

I wouldn't like this. And where did they do it? Hope they wiped down the surface after

OddFodd · 22/11/2013 20:49

It's weird that she felt the need to tell you. But other than that, no

FreudiansSlipper · 22/11/2013 20:49

well some quickies i have had have taken less time than making a cup of tea

i am not sure why she told you but can not see the problem

pasanda · 22/11/2013 20:50

We are best friends and tell each other everything so that's not unusual really. We had a laugh about it all.

I suppose I should be grateful he 'comes' quickly!! Smile

YANBU in that they should have been supervised on the trampoline but otherwise, YABU for feeling weird about the sex in general.

Sparrowlegs248 · 22/11/2013 20:51

Bizarre that they told you. I now have the image of her bent over the sink (so they can still keep an eye on the kids through the window.....)

RedLondonBus · 22/11/2013 20:52

boc why a 'married' couple? Any couple surely ,no?

Op.... Trampolines can be dangerous. Unsupervised 5 year olds? No I wouldn't be happy

usualsuspect · 22/11/2013 20:54

Lol at NottaLotta.

.

usualsuspect · 22/11/2013 20:54

At least they didn't shag on the trampoline.

pasanda · 22/11/2013 20:54

She told me about it because the issue really was the 'payment for ironing' thing. She always tells me when he is being a chauvenistic idiot!!

I don't feel weird about 'sex in general' at all, just the fact that they were responsible for my dts.
