    Yeah but it was a really good friendship. I didn't see the feelings, but that was a long time ago.

    But it wasn't just a friendship, this man was interested in you!

    How did it work out with your husband and the women at work he was attracted to?

    Yeah years and years ago, this present guy isn't interested or I would know.

    As for my hubby, it ended badly she was a s*g trying to get him in bed and lucky for him he didn't go for it.
    No you're not a vegetarian if you eat any animal or fish, so do not insult genuine veggies by calling yourself one! :mad:

    Watching films, looking at castles, going to pubs.

    It's a pity you can't compromise with your husband so that you can share eachother's interests. That's how most marriages work.
    :D I haven't bogged off yet, and I ain't no babe :D

    He does sometimes, but it is better to go with someone who is enjoying it. i love the cinema, my husband doesn't.

    Are you playing tit for tat with your husband?

    I honestly think your were expecting people to say, yes of course they can be friends, then you would see this as a green light for meeting up with this guy,

    Then in a few weeks you will be posting under a new user name saying, I cheated on my husband with a guy at work,

    In answer to your op, yes they can if NEITHER has an attraction to the other,

    Just curious, but do you like the same sort of films as this guy at work then?

    I don't see any harm in going to the flicks together, provided your husband is okay about it, but not the back row and no hand holding! ;)

    No not at all, I am totally against cheating and like I said that guy from work isn't interested. I really just want friendship.

    Are you honestly going to say to your husband, "sweetie, there's a guy at work who I find really attractive, do you mind if I go to the cinema with him on Saturday night"...
