My friend recently split up with her husband and they have young children. My friend has a new partner who seems really lovely - funny, charming, interesting, adoring of her and the kids ...I really like him. My friend is really happy and I really hope everything is ok. But DH has had some concerns about her new partner, mainly due to the ‘claims’ he’s made:
-He’s told us he’s a spy (MI5 I think or other ‘intelligence’) and has told us (and most other people in our friendship group) lots of detail on his recent mission abroad. Are spies allowed to give details?
-He’s solved one of those infamous maths puzzles recently and given his million pound prize to charity
- my friend is selling her house as her new partner has put an offer in on a 3 million pound house
- my friend has given her new partner a sum of money as he’s really good with investment and return
- the new partner is still married and lives with his wife and child with special needs but they are separated ‘in their minds’ (staying living together for the child)
I feel so guilty saying all this out loud as I love my friend and I do like her new partner, do you think I’ve got any reason to be concerned? What would you do?
