Kiss on the lips from male friend...?
I worked with a great guy for several years and we became very good friends. I am happily married and he is also married but has been living apart from his wife for a few months after she moved to a different part of the country with her job. Last week my friend left work for a new job closer to his wife and a load of us went out for his leaving do. At the end of the night I said good bye to him, told him I'd miss him and went to give him a peck on the cheek. He stopped me and gave me a kiss on the lips instead. I don't think he meant anything by it but since he's left I keep thinking about it. It didn't seem weird at the time but it feels weird looking back. But the biggest thing is I don't feel able to tell my husband about it. I know there was nothing funny going on but I feel like my husband would think it was suspicious.
Is it normal for friends to kiss on the lips? Especially when they probably won't see each other again? And do you think my husband would see it as cheating?

There's nothing to tell. The guy gave you a goodbye kiss. I've been kissed on the lips by a number of guys who were in relationships/married as a greeting or goodbye. It was never sexual or intimate, but just a close-lipped smooch. Nothing to wonder about. No ulterior motive or hidden message.
I wonder if you are keeping this on your mind because you hope there was something behind the kiss, even if there was not. Let it go. There's no reason to tell your husband, it wasn't a big deal, and the guy is gone so is no threat to your relationship anyway.

What's your goal? Nothing happened. Nothing to be reported on or complained about. It seemed totally normal at the time and the co-worker/friend is now gone and glad to be with his wife again. It was more of a peck on the lips than a long passionate kiss, yes? Yes. You weren't fighting and struggling to get out of his arms and were trapped.
So.. if your goal is to get your husband worked up over nothing and get jealous of him and distrustful of you, then I can see why you'd tell him. Otherwise? Nothing happened and no point stirring up the water!
