writes: I've got a friend who has been married for two years. At my son's christening recently they announced that they were seperating. I was shocked and because they were smiling I didn't believe them until they showed me their fingers without the rings. He said he was going to live with his mates but that they would both remain friends.A month later we met up at a friend's party. I asked how things were and they said that they kept arguing and couldn't decide whether to seperate or divorce. I noticed they were wearing their rings again. He then said that he had put in an offer on a house (they already have a 5 bedroomed house) and he was buying his own 3 bedroomed one). I asked if he would have a lodger and he said that he would try and get a student nurse from up the road. He was quite drunk that evening and she was sober as she was driving but she seemed tense. They have been having trouble with trying for a baby and she had a miscarriage soon after they got married. She is a lovely woman, typically, blonde, attractive, slim - a trophy woman in a way for him. She has got a very good career and earns more than him.Anyway as we were leaving the party he asked for a kiss goodbye and I let him peck me on the cheek and he then said to me 'are you going to give me a proper kiss', I replied 'no I'm a married woman'. He then made some comment about seeing me in a nurses uniform and I made some sort of joke back to him and then we left.I don't want to interfere with them and I won't but something is going on and all they have told their parents is that they are splitting up but won't tell them the full details. He's never asked me for a kiss before and definitely never behaved like that around me and I told my husband what he said.Why is he behaving like this - it makes me wonder if one of them has been unfaithful but if it were her surely he would not be trying to come on to one of her friends. Hope someone can give me some helpful advice on this.

It sounds like even they don't know what's going on, basically you have a choice you can either ask them outright what they're playing at. Or you can stay out of it and wait for it all to blow over. good luck
