My husband's best friend is cheating on his wife. Does that mean that mine is also cheating or will cheat?

    No, just because his friend is cheating it doesn't mean that he will cheat too. Pay more attention to how your husband reacts to his friend's behavior. Does your husband think it's okay that his friend is cheating? Does your husband tell you that he knows it is wrong and he wishes his friend would stop?

    Focus more on your husband as a person to determine if you think he might be the cheating type. Try not to assume that he's a cheater too just because his friend is.

    I can understand why you are concerned. Depends if he is the cheating type. To your knowledge has he ever cheated on a woman before? I would think if the answer is yes, that he might cheat on you. Also if he never has, he may be trying to be this man's voice of reason.

    Not necessarily but statistics do show that the more people in a man's life that he is close to (relatives, good friends) who condone and encourage cheating the more likely that man is to feel that it's ok to do.

    How can you just assume that your husband will cheat because his friend does it? That's kinda low. Unless he's ever shown signs of cheating then no, he won't copy his best friend.

    Sorry but if you're really this insipid or just plain distrustful, your 'partner' will either divorce you or cheat on you sooner or later.

    A relationship without trust is doomed.

    If you husband wanted to cheat, he wouldnt need inspiration from his friends. its not like before him he'd never heard of the idea.

    Not at all just means your husbands best friend is a unfaithful douche-bag who is most likely not getting sex from the wife so make sure your giving it up so it don't happen to you..

    Most likely but then again I have no idea who your husband is and since we're all different there's not possible way for me to answer this question with accuracy. But my guess is yes....

    As long as you give him sex regularly, and initiate it once in a while (like, say every third or fourth time) then the chances of him going out on you is small (~2%?). Dan's cheating because his wife is trying to castrate him.

    Terrible logic. I have a friend who is a cheater. Love the sinner hate the sin. I've been nothing but faithful to my wife.
