Crush on STBEXH’s friend’s housemate!

[Pamwasdreaming]

My STBEXH has a friend, let’s call him Greg. Greg and I are also good friends. We get on well. Greg lives with a guy, let’s call him David. So STBEXH and I met Greg and David for a drink last year. We had already separated at that stage — it was clear David and I got on like a house on fire and STBEXH was jealous and got angry with me afterwards.

It’s a year later - I haven’t seen David and I’d really like to sometime. I’m not sure how and I worry I’m playing with fire. It’s so rare I meet a single guy my age who I actually get on with! He probably thinks I’m still married and I don’t know how I’d find a way to see him but I think about him a lot.

Thoughts?

Thanks a million. I’m been with EXH so long and am pretty much programmed to think about him.

Ha! I suppose I will just call in to Greg. Even that has me nervous at the thoughts of it!! He did invite me though & his exact words were ‘call in anytime at all.’ It’s a little awkward as Greg is a friend of EXH’s — it’d obviously be better if they had nowt to do with one another.

Jump his bones

You never know, maybe David said 'why don't you invite Pam?'

Just reading this thinking you deserve a bit of fun. I felt sad for you when you said you and your STBXH never laughed like that.
I once had a fortune cookie that said " If you never try, you'll never know".
I kind of live my life by that. Pop round there @Pamwasdreaming and see if he wants to go for a drink.

Are you sure Greg doesn't have the hots for you , that could be awkward

I don’t think Greg has the hots for me because he’s close mates with my STBEXH. He’s very fond of me all right but it’s more friendly I think.

Gosh ye are giving me courage. 💪🏼 I didn’t think I’d call to Greg’s but I might just now! I’d love to see David again — I feel nervous just thinking about it — like a schoolgirl again!

A schoolgirl who wants to ‘jump (David’s) bones’ that is

I’ve decided to wait until I have a place to live to call in to Greg. At least then I’ll have some news and it’ll be clear to David (if he’s there) that H and I are physically separating.
