I’m a 25 year old whose marriage is less than 2 years with a 10 months-old daughter.
Hubby has a married female friend who is quite close to him. In fact, they have been friends even before we got married at all and use endearments such as ‘sweety’ , ‘honey’, and ‘Shugah’ while addressing each other. Even the lady’s husband is aware of their friendship.
Initially, I complained, but he assured me nothing is going on, that they are just good friends and nothing more. It almost cost serious issues in my home, but I decided to let it be, telling myself God will judge them if their relationship is more than he is saying it is.
Sometime last year, I sent a Facebook request to the lady’s husband and the next day, hubby confronted me, asking if I was a friend to him or have ever seen or spoken to him. I was shocked and told him I sent the request innocently, since we were all trying to be cool with their friendship. That issue ended after I canceled the friend request.
However, just yesterday, hubby was telling me how the lady recently brought up the topic again and was still amazed that I could send her hubby a friend request. She said I was being childish for thinking since she is chatting with my hubby, I should also do the same with hers.
The lady in question is 6 years older than I am, has two children and is currently pregnant with her third.
My question is this, was I wrong to send her hubby a friend request? Why is she still having that in mind after almost a year? Should I go to her office and talk it out with her and really understand her issue with me? Or should I let the sleeping dog lie. Note: They are not having any romantic relationship.

@hayanfeoluwa I will advice nothing like confrontation... let it be... if they are having a relationship leave it... God have a way of exposing stuffs like that... you confronting her may make her think you have something else in mind and might lead to a big issue in ur home... forget about their relationship and take good care of urz... if possible avoid her like a plague, because for her to still have a year slight issue in !Ind !sans she might not like you

U're not wrong in sendin dt friendship request in fact, dt request has served it's purpose. I don't think ur hubby and dt woman ar innocent. How can a man whose name u bear, who you share a bed wt, who u hav a kid for and who u share intimacy wt, share d romantic names he should be calling u alone, wt another man's wife? Wht hpnd to her own husband calling her those names? Abeg ur hubby shouldn't even think of using those names on another let alone saying them and stl having d nerves to confront u to cancel ur friendship request, and even come before u wt his woman friend's confrontation. Haba! We women don suffer for men hand. May God protect ur marriage my dear.

I don show @frankkay. You are not wrong my dear, God will save your marriage, honestly, all those sweet names ascribe for a friend by ur hubby are yours alone not even his mother, abeg open new fb account and chart with her husband but with caution do not let ur real id be known, through logical findings you are liable to know the truth. Pls note this, if you know the truth either good or bad, dat doesnt solve the problem, your husband is your problem, talk to him, digging deep may cause damage to your home. As for me if there is enough love amist you gys ur hubby ought to respect you for all i care.

U owe her no explanation for sending the friend request. But u might want to knw why its an issue cos if she is friends with ur husband, u are suppose to be friends too with her husband, dats wat family friends are supposed to do. She should even be happy except her and ur husband are not saying the truth.

They have something going because I don't see what they are afraid of in your harmless friendly request. Our people use to say that a killer will never allow cutlass near his neck. I have one that usually tells me that I snatched my hubby from her even when she had already married before I met my hubby. We usually laugh over it but I have my reservations but she is not my hubby's kind of a woman.

*Clears throat* i strongly concurred with what sis mi to sure said @Temmyjoy. why is the woman jealous about you sending friend request to her hubby if she doesn't have anything to hide. ad just as @becca have just said, she should be glad that you did that to make family friends. instead, she oppose it which means her hands are not clean. Dear... i think confronting her is okay but you should do it amicably. Thank goodness she as decided to come out of her shell...lol is good to see you surface here again....@Hayanfeoluwa

What really was your motive in sending that request..... Like the woman rightly said, that act was a very childish one. Cus having read through ur story again, i couldn't find where u made mention of been a friend to the lady in question on facebook. So y friend her husband? It's not just right. My opinion though i may be wrong.

I think I should first talk a little bit on marriage b4 I proceed wt wht I want to say. Marriage is a sacred union of two bodies and two souls, wt a solemn promise 4rm both parties to be there 4 each other through thick and thin. Ds means dt in marriage, a man's body and soul is joined to d body and soul of his wife. Therefore, d two bcom forever one and ar inseparable and now, they no longer do things differently. Their pronoun changes 4rm first person singular to plural like 'we', 'us', 'our', etc. Now d problem ds days is dt most ppl do not knw d depth of wht is done on d day they got married, so they tend to behave anyhow in marriage. In marriage, there ar things a couple share wch they can't share wt others, not even by mistake. But ds man in question shares some of the things he shouldn't share, wt ds his woman friend who's also married and also shares hers wt another person's husband. I believe if ds man knws wht he's into (ie marriage), he'll cut down on his excesses wt dt his 'friend' even wtout his wife telling him to do so. Bcos I don't see wht stopped dem 4rm getting married since they so love each other to d extent of calling each other honey, swthrt and darling. There's a limit to everything. Now dt they ar married, they should set strict limits to dt their friendship and extend it to their families. Any kind of friendship wch can't be extended to even their children, is from d pit of hell. D man should respect his body wch is his wife, he should protect his wife 4rm d wolf and not throw her to d wolves or be d wolf himself. If he had little honour and respect 4 his wife, he would hav defended her by jokingly telling his friend dt his wife meant no harm but he stood there like ishi azu (head of a fish), took in all she said, then had d effrontery to go to his wife's presence and utter rubbish! Sorry to say ds but dt man is d one acting in a childish manner. He should be a man and not behave like he's being controlled by d other woman. Wht is he so afraid of? I keep wondering. @Krizzy, wetin I wan do nah!

Dt woman no even dey serious. She's stl there, asking if she dd d wrong thing. If she likes, let her not stamp her feet down and demand some respect and privacy in her marriage. From their present stage, they'll move on to another stage wt tym and maybe by then, it will be too late 4 her to stop.
