Can some one elaborate on the risks and benefits involved ,in a friendship with a married woman, not just in Doha but any where in the world?

It all depends upon the person perception and the way of thinking. there will be pros and cons for each and every thing in the life, so take decision wisely
Oh dear! friendship with the opposite sex? This is blasphemy! and married too! This is SPARTA!
So what?
Be friends, big deal...what's the worst that could happen? have ***(just in case moderators are too polite), then smoke a cigarette? Maybe even fall in love? And what's wrong with that? It's better than living your life loyal to a cause you don't believe in.
If her husband loves her and believes in her, and know that she has the same feelings too, then he shouldn't have the weakness and insecurity to be jealous or suspicious. And if his wife really loves him, and know he loves her too. Then you're out of luck getting anything more than a friendship.
So it's perfectly fine, and if the people are **** up in the head, then that's their problem in the first place. I don't think there is any problem with going out with someone's wife or even sharing the same bed...just as long as you're not a rapist or psycho (now that can be a problem)...
I guess that's the question you should ask yourself...Are you a confused person that thinks about these things too much to the point of questioning whether it's ok or not to be friends? or are you confident man who understands himself and his relationship with others along with considering other peoples feelings?
If you are worried about her husbands feelings then you're a very nice man. If you're just worried whether you're going to get screwed or not if her husband finds out, then you probably will...
No offense or disrespect to the OP, just getting the point across :)
Good question Drmana why is this Topic revived. Om maui post was spot on. It is the emotional relationship that a married woman is looking for and may a physical one later.
also chinitasai end remarks that Friendship normally ends in love is also interetsing.
;)
Why not?
Am I supposed to not have friends just because I am married? :-S
Oh! Why was this old thread revived?
ask the same then what will be your reaction and risk
yaaa u said
it dude
If a married women still needs friendship after marriage that shows she lacks some love !!!!!!!!!
but way you want marrid woman friend ,!!!!!!!!!!!
a really nice story with emotional and moral lesson for Wife!
and so what... is there a law that' restrict married woman or man to have friends?... Well, it depends and it would be a huge NO NO NO alert if ur intention is to get her/ his attention because u like him... But stay away if the husband or wife is a jealous type... don't make troubles...
The Most Exhausting Thing in Life is Being Insincere
Let her bubby and your better half (if any...) know about it. If they have now problem with it, whom else you have to be afraid? Go ahead... there will always be benefits.
Take care you should not be a obstcle in anyone's peaceful married life
only friend thats ok/but dont cross the line both of you
It is always best to have a collection of friends - specially married matured women.
Marriage is once but friends are forever.
No women in the world can see her husband as a friend - so she has to have either girls / boyfriends to share her feelings .
Marriage means not end of friendship !!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Friendship with others wife.../ married woman? its okey..
People say that its very nice to be with the other's wife. but should have some boundary..haha nice quest..n
The wife came home early and found her husband in their bedroom making love to a very attractive young woman.
And she was somewhat upset. 'You are a disrespectful pig!' she cried. 'How dare you do this to me -- a faithful wife, the mother of your children! I'm leaving you. I want a divorce right away!'
And the husband replied, 'Hang on just a minute love so at least I can tell you what happened.' 'Fine, go ahead,' she sobbed,' but they'll be the last words you'll say to me!'
And the husband began -- 'Well, I was getting into the
car to drive home, and this young lady here asked me for a lift. She looked so down and out and defenseless that I took pity on her and let her into the car.
I noticed that she was very thin, not well dressed and very dirty. She told me that she hadn't eaten for three days.
So, in my compassion, I brought her home and warmed up the enchiladas I made for you last night, the ones you wouldn't eat because you're afraid you'll put on weight. The poor thing devoured them in moments.
Since she needed a good clean-up, I suggested a shower, and while she was doing that, I noticed her clothes were dirty and full of holes, so I threw them away.
Then, as she needed clothes, I gave her the designer jeans that you have had for a few years, but
don't wear because you say they are too tight.
I also gave her the underwear that was your anniversary present, which you don't wear because I don't have good taste.
I found the sexy blouse my sister gave you for Christmas that you don't wear just to annoy her, and I also donated those boots you bought at the expensive boutique and don't wear because someone at work has a pair the same.'
The husband took a quick breath and continued - 'She was so grateful for my understanding and help that as I walked her to the door, she turned to me with tears in her eyes and said,
'Please ... Is there anything else you can give me that your wife doesn't use?
I found the true life in Qatar!
You can't teach experience...
I want to be friends with married woman only.
NO MATTERS IN HAVING A FRIEND AND EVEN BEYOND THAT TOO.
MARRIAGE IS JUST A CERMONY IN LIFE THAT DOES NOT MEAN TO LEAVE THE WORLD OF FRIENDS .
FRIENDS ARE FREINDS - WHETHER SINGLE,MARRIED OLD OR YOUNG .
usually It may end up with some thing very awefull to both parties ... it happened to one i know and she offered him what so called benifets but he luckly ran away .. LOL
parents are to be blamed for it, partially.
you can't change it
LET SLEEPING DOG LIE
sheer sexual.
do you believe in peace?
"going for sex" in friendship when in this same thread as tomsware you said that married men can't be friends with women because they will want sex. Aren't you ashamed for trying to chase after women friends on QL since now it's clear you were looking for sex?
I refuse to drink the kool-aid! -- PM
SAVE YOUR HAIR BEAUTY as after 1 marriage, a man becomes HALF BALD so why you want to risk the other half by marrying another lady or in your case, your risking your whole head by having friendship with a married woman whose husband will make sure that your head is not attached with ur body
generally, go for sex in frienship, its my personal opinion.
Friendship is a different and universal mindset which has little to do with married or single, it is the actions, thougts and behaviour that differentiate the relationship
mmmm.. i hope its not hard to grasp.
being a friend to a married nor a single women dosen't matter as far as it doesn't cross the limits of personal integrity and turns ugly.
Rather a good friendship is always beneficial and memorable
S.M.I.L.E
Simpleman is loving everyone
:):):)
as long as it stays as friends... nothing more.. nothing less...
and no commitments... just to ease the load of it.. :)
a big no for freindship between man and women its like wood and fire,fire will engulf wood very soon so better the distance .
it cant be only freindship between man and women married or unmarried doesn't matter
Nothing is more relaxing than flying like an Eagle in Heaven !!
nothing wrong in having friendship with married women! we all do .. its normal. it becomes a problem when u start having some feelings that will go futher than a friendship! and it happens! being close to some1 and knowing her for a good period might force u asking for more! watch out!
at the end of the day,
with wine ofcourse !
lol
do you know anything better than wine?
If you desire to have friendship with any perticular person ,that means you have any intention for that.
Good women knows how to keep away such people.
A DAY WITHOUT LAUGHTER IS A WASTED DAY!..........
it's ok, just don't get caught, and don't admit if caught...
hai Living fun,
Friendship with married woman is not a bad or sin thing.But what are the limitations in the friendship.let her husband agree you as a friend of his wife.
Ok then you should allow your wife also to be another mans friend.give and take policy.
hai sai, as you said it is not wrong?.But you should keep in your mind she is friend only.As all you said friendship is the first to understand each other and next step is falling in love.
Fire and gassoline can not be together.ha ha ha
nothing wrong with having a married woman friend... and they're all right...there is limitations...and always rmember Friendship often ends in love...
.

who told you? :P

@ azilana
youre right with that point of yours, but if it was pertaining to what i said earlier..well, i didnt say these men are always successful with their agenda with these women. i thought living_fun was funny when he said "friendship" with a married woman. it's almost obvious that he wants to get in her pants. no offense. we're all adults here, yes we know one when we see one.
you show it here,friendship is subtile between yours,so everything depends on how do you deal with it.
be friends with the couple and be done with it....then again, if each confide in you about problems with each other....Good God mon! Get a girlfriend!
even if the MARRIED MEN would love to do THE STUPID THINGS under the disguise of "friendship"...but if the other party is not interested...it won't prosper.
There has to be a line/boundary to everything...
friendship? generally speaking, a man don't make friends with a woman withought an underlying agenda..almost never!
like what PITSTOP said..if it's an open friendship...nothing wrong with that?
there's no problem in having a married woman as a friend...it depends on u on how far u will go for the friendship..as long as u know ur limits, there's no problem with it ...just maintain a platonic relationship with her....
can have a friend for over 50 years old married woman , but for newlyweds, young mother, i don’t think so, they are always in the middle of some tasks.
expect nothing, do more, love lots, smile often, cry sometimes but continue living....
no married man / woman will accept that the other partner is a friend of a young person no matter for what reason. It will definetly rise the eyebrow & instantly jealousy level too. So as said "MARRIAGE LIFE IS HARD" so none of the partner should do anything to make it worsen

hi
i wanna ask u friend
do u accept if anyone want to be friend with ur wife ?
in the same way u think about this friendship
i dont think so
Would you accept your wife to meet a male friend outside?
you are wOw dear. why dont you ask her husband that if its ok with him if his wife could be or is your friend??
no Risk at all if the Husband is fine with it. but if not, then make sure you have some thing to cover your face....
to PITSTOP.... exactly!
When Harry Met Sally...
one of the best romantique movies...
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0098635/
Harry Burns: You realize of course that we could never be friends.
Sally Albright: Why not?
Harry Burns: What I'm saying is - and this is not a come-on in any way, shape or form - is that men and women can't be friends because the sex part always gets in the way.
Sally Albright: That's not true. I have a number of men friends and there is no sex involved.
Harry Burns: No you don't.
Sally Albright: Yes I do.
Harry Burns: You only think you do.
Sally Albright: You say I'm having sex with these men without my knowledge?
Harry Burns: No, what I'm saying is they all WANT to have sex with you.
Sally Albright: They do not.
Harry Burns: Do too.
Sally Albright: They do not.
Harry Burns: Do too.
Sally Albright: How do you know?
Harry Burns: Because no man can be friends with a woman that he finds attractive. He always wants to have sex with her.
Sally Albright: So, you're saying that a man can be friends with a woman he finds unattractive?
Harry Burns: No. You pretty much want to nail 'em too.
Sally Albright: What if THEY don't want to have sex with YOU?
Harry Burns: Doesn't matter because the sex thing is already out there so the friendship is ultimately doomed and that is the end of the story.
Any friendship that is out in the open is fine. Once its a secret - then something is wrong.
Well guys...
I have too many friendship relations with married woman... and their families… I didn’t face any problems while dealing with them... it is just a principal, consider her as a pal! if you didnt involve emotionally.. then what could be the problems!
In this part of the world, the problem is the mentality of the Arabs and Muslims… the whole idea of female-male friendship is not acquired!
BR
Depends on culture ofcourse...However, make sure you meet in public places..Otherwise...it is a spark away...
Keep trust and hope you shall continue to stick to your motto always.
With due respect to your PoV; being aware of many cases which ends in disasters due to close family relationships.
May Allah keeps us on the straight path...Ameen!
this is the way it should be.
Love is blind only for teenagers or stupid people. You get trapped only if you have the same feelings...otherwise a married man/woman know when its diverting from the straight path..I don’t recommend an opposite sex friend, if your relation with your partner is in turmoil.
Beg to differ...my motto is Mine is the best...whatever it is...be it my hubby/child/job/friends…..I like to think that way..that’s what I was thought at home… don’t desire for others things be happy with what you have.. I am not being egoistic...whatever God has given me is the best I deserve..
I always respect your views and wise comments…but this is my personal opinion…
"I do agree some men have something else in their mind then we think...thats where you should put a full stop to that friendship... simple as that"
It is not as simple as seems to be; one will not realise unless get trapped.....We know Love is blind.....
General comment that "My neighbours Wife or Husband is better than my own" where this leads to...
So apply wisdom and simply avoid b4 one repent.
marriage can bring happiness also bring sadness for some unfortunate people.hope I'm not putting you of.....
Never felt that its hard...life change for better after marriage...
married life is hard as it is.why add more to it?
i have a friend who has somethin else in his mind, so i put a full stop to that ....:)
Save energy and save resources
GREEN comment
I really dont agree that its not possible for a Man and woman be just friends.... had many good male firends before marriage and after marriage... its all about the way you look at it...for me its just like having a same sex friend...
I do agree some men have something else in their mind than we think...thats where you should put a full stop to that friendship... simple as that..
I think there is nothing wrong with that,if the friendship is genuine and pure.
Depends on the type of Friendship.. Platonic Friendship yes.. any thing more certainly Not..
-----------------
HE WHO DARES WINS
Om maui..
I repeat...
Generally, in Public life, everybody showsoff all his/her positive traits to attract and well behaves with others and get easily infatuated by opposite sex.
It is in human nature that we start comparing with our life partners, then starts An Extra Marital episode.....
So be careful with a MARRIED WOMAN / MAN!
In an old movie called When Harry met Sally, Harry told Sally, men and women cannot be friends, because sex always gets in the way. I think all mature adults would know and admit that that's true.
friendship with married women?... friendship by definition is very rare in this case...
There is no risk as such if the friendship is true!!!
Shamz thinks that "a conclusion is the place where you got tired of thinking".
today's life-style and mingling society (allowing entry to 3rd person, major cause of all marriage BREAKS).
Basically, in public life, one portrays/showoff all his/her +traits to attract/behaves with others.
Easily get infatuated by opposite sex and starts a camparison with your life partner, from here starts an extra marital episode......So be careful!
Nothing wrong to be friendly,if we do not cross the limit.Rest is our brought up ,lifestyle and the way
we understand friendship means.
Great post Bibo, thanks for taking the time to share all that great info...
Well, Lets just think about it Differently or lets see it from another point of view!!
are you so hopeless to the Point where you can not get a Woman who is Single and you might have a better chance of getting involved with her emotionally?
is she having problems with her husband to the point of her looking for a friend?
why dont you become friends with her husband and if things go well then you might be a friend of the family!
Oh Well, What if she falls in love with you? what Will you Do? and What will be situation if you Fall in Love with her?
Are you Gay?
well said bibo
I read it on yahoo today:
82 percent of affairs happen with someone who was at first "just a friend," according to noted infidelity researcher Shirley P. Glass.
So... despite any obvious signs of cheating in your so-called friendship, ask yourself: Are you having an emotional affair?
You've Probably Crossed the Line if You...
1. Touch your male friend in "legal" ways, like picking lint off his blazer.

2. Pay extra attention to how you look before you see him.
3. Think crush-like thoughts like "He'd love this song!"
4. Tell him more details about your day than you do your partner.
5. No longer feel comfortable telling your mate about this person and begin to cover up your relationship.
6. Experience increasing sensual tension; you admit your attraction to him but also insist to yourself that you would never act on it.
It's About to Get Physical When You...
1. Find yourself feeling vulnerable and turn to the other man for support rather than to your mate or a trusted relative or girlfriend.
2. Accelerate the level of intimacy through sensual or suggestive talk over email or the phone.
3. Put yourself in a situation where the two of you could be alone.
You Can Avoid the Potential Affair if You...
1. Stay honest with your partner. Share with him all your hopes, triumphs, and failures -- as well as your attractions and temptations, which will help keep you from acting on them.
2. Make time for just the two of you on a regular basis -- away from the kids, your friends, and family.
3. Surround yourself with happy couples who don't believe in fooling around. Having positive, emotionally connected role models will help you stay on track.
Readers Reveal: "I Knew I'd Gone too Far When..."
"The guy who I was flirting with regularly over email attended the same event as me and my fiance. When I introduced them, my face flushed as red as a tomato -- I felt embarrassed and guilty about my fiance meeting this guy, so I knew what I was doing was wrong." -- Carolyn, 31, Westfield, NJ
"During one night of partying, my best guy friend and I confessed we had always liked each other. He was a perfect gentleman and left my place before we crossed the physical line. The next day I was completely embarrassed and knew that I didn't want to jeopardize the relationship with my boyfriend so I ended the friendship. And now the boyfriend is my husband, so I'm glad I did." -- Allie, 29, Yonkers, NY
"The cute tech guy who I'd been flirting with at my office said to me, 'You're not going to invite me in?' after I accepted a ride home from him. I liked the attention of him buying me vending machine snacks and complimenting me, but my husband would've had a heart attack if he knew." -- Amy, 38, Chicago
"My best guy friend and I were snuggled on his couch underneath a blanket when I realized that neither his girlfriend nor my boyfriend would be happy if they saw us -- and that our platonic relationship wasn't as platonic as we thought." -- Kim, 35, New Orleans
absolutely nothing wrong with that.. as long as the husband is cool with it!
haha what kind of retard am i married to then?!! that's totally uncool! i'm talking friends as in colleagues, friends of friends, friends of family...not some random guy running up to you and asking for friendship!
i guess i misinterpreted the question then...all i'm saying is that everyone in the office is friends with this girl maria...and she's married...a couple of guys are really close friends with her and they go over to her house and chill with her family sometimes and there's nothing wrong with that
zayd...the situation is quite different, the way he asked or the question raised...and not only that, I think its ok if they are long lost friend or whatsoever. Imagine if youre married and suddenly your wife will tell you, "Honey, I met this guy in the supermarket and he approch me to be his friend, and I said yes. What will you do zayd?. Dont go any further, what she meant in the beggining is purely friendship. What will you do?
i really don't see what the big deal is...you can be friends with a married woman...then you can meet her husband and chances are you'll be good friends with him too. isn't that how family friends are formed?
I think, as long as you know your limit then is fine to have friends with married woman/man. Unless you want the otherway then is totally your choice too but be ready for the consequents.
Everybody is right everybody is wrong, it depend where you stand
there is FIRE!
but I've known him since I was 6..
my father used to feel confident if he is accompanying me out because I have no brother...
he helped me with my marriage, and my husband not only respects him but also cherishes our friendship. I just make sure to include my husband in our frienship loop. It takes wisdom, respect and a lot of transparency with the spouse...
and, for the record, I don't beleive in a new friendship that is initiated with a married woman. It just won't work and most probably, it's the woman who is taking from her male friend the part that is missing from her relationship with her husband and i't just ain't right.
this is not on.i know for sure no husband will allow her wife to have friendship with other man neither do wife.if any of them is having a relation ship without knowledge of partner is cheating no matter how clean the relationship is?cos if it is hidden it is some thing which you are wrong at.
now look..i think braveheartqatar is trying to make his way to her..lets see what happens...
Chinitasai101 is just saying it's ok. bec. she is married, and she has male friends aside from her husband, maybe even a more than close male friend...she is just defending herself and what she is doing here in qatar...but totally i agree with you.IT IS NOT OKAY HERE IN QATAR...IT IS A PROBLEM...
Chinitasai08,hmmmppp come on. definity a problem especially here in Qatar. If you are married, would allow your husband to get a new friend, a married woman and he will tell you, honey, I know my limitations...He will go out with her friend. Will you allow him? I dont think so.. and if you will tell me, nope its fine then you are fool.
In societies/cultures where the degree of civilization reached progressive levels, friendship is seen as a normal relationship between human beings, regardless their color, race, gender, social, financial or marital status.
In other societies/cultures where civilization levels are archaic, the individual may not always be free and/or rationally “equipped” to choose freely relationships, as these are controlled by imposed invisible controls. In such cases, preconceived and discriminatory factors may condition friendship between certain groups of individuals.
Men and Women can never be friends. Unless the Man is gay or they have a natural relationship like mother, sister etc. etc.
it will be problem if you add something else. just think if you are the husband of your married lady friend? is it fine with you? your choice.
it doesn't mean you lacked attention from your husband you start getting promiscuous??? is not marriage through thick and thin???? HARAM! Bboy oh boy! women all the time find ways to get laid by many...later banking on the lack of attention from their hubby...what an excuse...that women need emotional support, constant cuddling, moral boosting,,,,you name it..all leading to one thing..GETTING laid.
Azilana, that is exactly my point..the way he asked the question, risk and benifits...you can tell...
Very well said...agree with you 100%
a married woman does not get the attention she wants from her husband, so you offer your friendship, and promise yourself that it will just be friendship, and not cross the line. But, because you are investing time, emotions, sharing secrets, giving advices, you can cross the line even against your best intentions. You just can't have one bite of potato chips, and not go for another bite. and perhaps another? till it's consumed. Human nature. She needs attention, you give attention. She needs emotional support, you give emotional support. If that's your definition of friendship, it is also the formula for an emotional affair. (maybe physical, later)
but if you are two complete people, happy with each of your own lives, and fulfilled with each of your own marriages, then friendship is safe and can be wholesome.
of "friendship".
But since you're asking about "the risks and benefits involved", I could guess your definition is DIFFERENT...
There would be no problem with having married women for friends and vice versa...UNLESS you wanna get stupid.
no benefits.
Second thought...
Can be maintain if high level of maturity persist and obviously within limits....then Yes.
One more....
Remember that
1) 'First step of Love is Friendship'
2) Fire and gasoline couldnot stay apart for long time.
....depend how pure their intentions and maintain limits.
married friends? i think everybody has.. but if friendship goes to affair, that's definitely something else..
Hi Chinita,
I agree with you that nothing is wrong to be a friend to a married woman.We are all living in a free world and do everything what we want provided that you're not hurting or putting down somebody.What all we want is purely friendhip,right.nothing else
Are you asian chinita? you're really an open minded person.
nothing wrong with having a married woman friend... and they're all right...there is limitations...and always rmember Friendship often ends in love...
MyHotComments +
Friendship to a married woman is nothing wrong and i do not see any problem provided that your intention is purely friendship.Once you give a deeper meaning on it it and let your emotions out of control thats' the time that your crossing the borderline and playing in a dangerous grounds.Nonetheless,the benefit is having a friend to share with your happiness,someone to talk to in times of loneliness and gaining more friends from your friends circle of friends.Go Buddy...no risk at all..
go for it, it's risk free.
it's always good to have friends with benefits.
Hmmppp....simple question, easy to answer.
That would be a PROBLEM!
Let say you are a married man. Would you let your wife to be friend of another man? "Friend"? Because the way you asked, that Friendship goes with other meaning.
Would you allow your wife to go with her friend in his house just to chat? Unless her friend is 101% certified fag, maybe.
Benifits? Come on!
Such a loser!
Know your limits dude... And don't ever get more intimate with each other especially if you're also married...
..."There is LiFe after Death"...
There are limits. For instance, i dont think its right for a man to accompany a married woman to her house when her husband is not around (and vice versa). Sometimes too often, people cheat on each other and with who? the best friend! So there should be limits. I also don't see the reason for a single man to be calling his best friend's wife to just 'chat' it up. Its fine in a group setting. Thats just my two cents:)
one thing can lead to another...so be aware... ;)

Please DO let us know your defination of FRIENDSHip then we will Guide YOU better.
SO far its is not BAD if you (BOTH) do not cross limits.
Harry you are right,
As a married woman, her spouse may not take too kindly to her friendship with you.
If you are also married , then your wife may also be worried.
Why cause problems in their place,?
hmm....
Also depends on The way u see her.... ;P
yes, its true....
hvng frndship is not bad....but u need to be frnd with her husband too...thats a safer side.....
Then this woman is not looking for friendship. She's looking for a special attention that her husband could'nt give.. can't you see the picture?
Friendship in its purest meaning is for everybody, regardless of any gender. But having relation other than friendship with a married woman is haram in any religion and illegal in any law.
By doing so, corresponding consequences will be dealt by you,it depends which country you are in or have commited such shameful act.
Beware: Somebody is looking at you...u

Theres no problem in keeping friendship with a married woman according to me and sharing all ur secrets coz of course a husband can never become a friend and not all the secrets af a female must be told to her hubby coz they definitely take in the negative sense and all husbands of course are possessive about there wives.But be careful just friendship and do not cross your limit.Coz nowadays I have seen many cases where married men and married females and betrothed girls too have friendship with other single and married men.u know!
Remember, "Beuty is in the eye of the beholder"..

Good question!!!
rather than befriending somebody else's wife?
You got it. I'll place an order w/ Amazon and ship it to my stateside address, if you are serious.

-Thomas Tusser
If the intention is purely friendship then go for it... but in most cases, it results to way beyond friendship.Go to single females, problems will not be that complicated :)
"can someone elaborate on the risks ??" - A strange question indeed..
As a married woman, her spouse may not take too kindly to her friendship with you.
If you are also married , then your wife may also be worried.
Why cause problems in the first place,? There are plenty of single women around..
I don't see anything wrong with having married friends of the opposite gender as long as you are truly saying friends... I have several married male friends - they come in handy when you want to get out to a bar and not be bothered :D
I have no problem having a married woman as a friend if she is ugly enough.

brutus,
i know that.. and he should also know that.. and why wont you tell him... and please dont involve anybody in the discussion.. its so rude of you.. just stay on the topic..
I'm friends with a married woman. We get along really well and share all our secrets..
I keep forgetting to look for a copy of the book you quote from in your signature.

lostindoha.. there is always the temptation of crossing the line from friendship to another eh?.. if she is nice to you then take it as it is. What will you feel if it happens to your wife eh.

But don't fret about it...

No male friends :(

hmmmm....its ok.. but dont be to close... friendship has a limit... if she's nice to you, it doesn't mean she likes you, she's just being nice...
I think the danger is already in your heart when you started thinking so. And it will lead you to thinking of spend holidays with her.
There's no problem with being friends with a married woman if your intention is purely friendship or companionship. When you start crossing the line between friendship then it's a problem. (hhhmm... like darude said Haram, haram)
Cheers mate

i don't think there's any risks on being friends with a married women. but dude, you gotta be careful. don't you ever dare cross that line. and as for benefits, you don't make friends with benefits do you?
