The off-topic topic

Doesn't matter if you didn't touch her. There's an inherent sexuality when a man sleeps next to a woman.

Speak for yourself.

...and the vast majority of women.

I wouldn't be happy if I found out my girlfriend had slept in the same bed as another man AND hidden the fact from me.

Relationships are about trust and honesty and a loss of that can in some cases be as damaging as a sexual trangression.... if you let it get out of control.

You already admitted how you would feel if the situation were reversed.

I was referring to a situation that was going on for a long time, not one time.

That comment was aimed at Sam. This is about him not you. I like and respect Sam and don't want to see him make an even bigger mistake than he already has. My advice is only intended to help.

You know it's not quite right and are looking for us to pat you on the back and say 'Nah, it's OK, Sam, you're fine. Go ahead.'.

bit harsh,not looking for approval from anyone here,was just curious to see how it looked to neutrals,i alredy knew the answer and was actually surprised when the first couple of posts saw not much wrong.

It's not fine and you're putting your marriage at risk.

i don't think so..i wouldn't let it get that far.

i've never slept with a woman before without being in an intimate relationship with her so i will bow to your opinion.

agree 100%.

Doing it once could be construed as a mistake, doing it twice.........

agree again.

Imagine if you fell out with your platonic friend and she was looking for a way to get back at you.

that would be possible if there was any sort of romantic interest there...woman scorned and all that.but there isn't.i imagine my friend will end up with a boyfriend pretty soon and our closeness will naturally peter out..

Ask yourself: If this arrangement is so innocent why haven't you told your wife already? Because you know what she would say. But now that you've done it you should come clean. Better a small argument now than a huge one later.

my wife does know i socialise with this girl..she's been out with her herself.it's not a secret to her we are mates.just don't think she needs to know the rest.

Whatever you decide to do I hope it works out for you.

I feel a bit guilty guys: I was at the bar tonight and something leaned on my back and started talking to my mate (and possibly me) and I inexplicably assumed it was a transsexual. We were queueing at the bar for some time and it persisted on leaning on my back and I felt uncomfortable about having a tranny (?) on me and was laughing my head off. Then eventually it went to me 'if you just move a little bit I can take my drink and go' so I moved a little bit, a hand with bright pink fingernails took a drink, and it fucked off. I took the pink fingernails as admission of it being a transsexual. My mate later told me it was a woman. I hadn't looked at it the whole time.

@SaltySam, if you value your marriage, you will make absolutely sure this won't happen again. That 1 time was a mistake, you know that, and to put yourself potentially in that position again would be stupid beyond belief.

Do you want to risk losing your marriage? You can see your friend during the day no problem, but sharing a room/bed is simply 'not done' when you have a partner at home. No matter if there's any sex or not. Not only will you be keeping it a secret from the woman who's the most important to you (and you are probably HER most important person that she needs to feel that she can trust), it's also quite disrespectful towards her TBH.

I know you like your friend, man, but seriously, you're married, you love your wife, and basically it comes down to not taking ANY risks to ensure that you'll hang on to your wife.

And yeah, it would be different if your friend was a guy, but sadly we're living in a reality and a society that does still non-sexual female friends differently from friends.

[Markgway]

I took the pink fingernails as admission of it being a transsexual.

Is that colour international code for transsexual?

If you can't tell the difference between a woman and a bloke dressed up as a woman you've drunk too much.

If you automatically assume a woman is a transexual for no apparent reason then you're incredibly pissed.

[gasteropod]

Absolutely

Accidentally deleted 2000+ songs off my iPhone. Fucking brilliant..!

I'm not familiar with the whole iPad/iPhone/Ipod stuff, but now you've got to redownload all that stuff again, 1 for 1...!?

[Markgway]

That's one reason CDs are better than downloads.

[bradavon]

Well not really because you can just put them back. Plug it into your computer and kick iTunes off. Personally I prefer Android because it allows simple copy/paste without the need for that bloatware.

How on earth did you manage that?

[Yi-Long]

That's one reason CDs are better than downloads.

... or you just download MP3's and make sure you've got a back-up, so you can just copy-paste the whole lot onto your MP3-player again.

[Keung]

It's simple enough to put them back on, but it's rather time consuming. Even more so because I like to add the artwork myself. I really don't know how I did it. All my photos, videos, and apps are still there.

[bradavon]

They're on your computer still right? Just kick it off over night. You've not got much choice.

... or you just download MP3's and make sure you've got a back-up, so you can just copy-paste the whole lot onto your MP3-player again.

It's essentially the same for iOS hardware. They're AAC files instead and need to use iTunes to transfer them but it's still files that need copying back again.

Fuck me look at this trailer http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5w4f4pQgHdc Daryl Hannah, Peter O'Toole, David Carradine (in his final role), Jeff Fahey, Michael Madsen, Brigitte Nielsen, Steve Guttenberg, Rik Mayall, Bill Moseley, Sylvester McCoy,Patrick Bergin! looks possibly the worst movie ever made

[bradavon]

It looks like a spoof, it's real?

[Markgway]

[grim_tales]

I wondered if it was a spoof too, it looks so bad, and not even entertaining in a Grindhouse kind of way. It must have been made years ago before David C. died.

I wouldn't mind that, not for that price though.

[HungFist]

I'm happy with my French dvd. Not a fan of the film, really.

But speaking of nice prices, I sold my Battle Royale BD LE Box Set for 56€ (+ shipping, which I overestimated, and hence made even more money ) earlier this week

You reckon? .

Is this really that rare?

[grim_tales]

Well yeah, but why release it now?

[Markgway]

Dreadnaught went OOP almost immediately. Still only a knob would pay that kind of silly money. Can't wait for Cine Asia to reissue it for a fiver so all these fools can facepalm themselves.

That's a bit unfair...
