I read this as “on the back of the neck” and thought that was really odd. And maybe a flippant detail.

Bottom line is friend and wife need counseling and whatever gets them there is good and whatever doesn’t is window dressing.

Damn, I love a good "Am I the a-hole?"

If the story you told is what actually went down, no, you're not the a-hole.

Three rules of conduct:

*Do I need to say it
*Do I need to say it now
*If say it, will it make a difference

Truth triumphs lies. You can’t take back what you said, you may have to cut ties with both. You are in a No Win situation with the friend and his marriage.

Well, I'm not going to listen to you because you've got a big fancy vocabulary, old timer. I'll just go to the pier with my girlfriend and listen to that album you don't like! Yeah!

Did you tell him about it that night or a few days later?

I hope a few days later. Shitty position you’re in, but you tried to do the right thing.

Why did they have to call your GF…

Me with my girlfriend, him with his wife of 19 years. Drinks, dinner and a movie.


If she was at the house when this occurred?

Try to talk sense into my friend. He's a good dude but being manipulated. I guess move on if I can't talk any sense into him.

Your friend is a complete pussy! You should have done him a favor, frick his wife, keep proof and when the eventual divorce occurs, save him thousands in alimony. That's what a friend does.

A friend asked me "What if you caught me banging your wife?" I told him before I announced myself I'd take pics, clear my throat and high five you out the door. If she's willing to screw you I was doomed anyway.

Call Woody Overton, the retired detective with the Real Life, Real Crime podcast. He does lie detector test for shite like this.
Seriously though, you don't have to go through all of that. Just have a conversation with GF, friend, and the skank, and say that the two of you need to go take a lie detector test. When she balks, and she will, everyone will know the truth.

I hope a few days later. Shitty position you’re in, but you tried to do the right thing.

I told him about it on Wednesday, so four days after. It wasn't really a conversation I wanted to have. I thought about doing it both Monday and Tuesday but I just couldn't do it. I chickened out or just rationalized putting it off. Now that I'm actually writing this out, here's the weird thing about me telling him; my friend didn't ask me any questions. Like "What do you mean, she tried to kiss you? Where were you? What was the situation?" He just flew off into rage mode and he's a pretty collected person.
