Why would his friend pull a prank like this?

Question - (13 August 2009) 1 Answers - (Newest, 14 August 2009)
A female United States age 41-50, anonymous writes:

I was using our computer last night and shocked to receive an email from a Finnish guy with pictures of him in his underwear and his private parts - addressed to my husband! The pictures were, to say the least, rather raunchy.

I asked my hubby what this was about, and he claimed it was a prank by a friend, however, the email said they knew him and wanted him to email pics back!

My hubby insists the guy's just a friend, but how can I be sure? I mean most guys wouldn't do this, would they??

He said I should meet him - is this a good thing?

Talking did help, he said the guy was a friend he'd known for about 6 years now, and that he had no idea why his friend did this.

How should we go about dealing with this? My husband is mortified that his friend was sending these pics!

He couldn't have been caught any more blatantly, short of you walking in and finding him at it, which I'm glad you didn't have to face.

Have you seriously swallowed (no pun int) his rather lame explanation? If it's to be taken at face value, it means he's totally straight but this guy has been sending unwanted explicit photos of his genitalia without your husband having asked for them. If so, surely you're both within your rights to confront this guy angrily? Suggest this to your husband and see what he thinks.

Being bi is no crime (who isn't, deep down?) but your husband has been deeply dishonest in not mentioning this to you. If they've been having sex, it qualifies as cheating. If not, if it's just online teasing, it's still pretty shabby behaviour for a married man.

Since there's NO realistic prospect of him being able to suddenly 'switch off' his gay side, it's up to you both to work out whether you can find a way of continuing as a married couple in light of that reality.

Best of luck!!
