While it does kinda sound like you asked her out, I will say that it has struck me as odd - - to very odd - - at a couple of business lunches when my opposite sex counterpart at another company brought along a completely unrelated person so we weren’t alone.

People are weird.

If you can't trust your spouse to have a frigging cup of coffee or lunch with someone then why did you marry them?

Kinda feel bad for the OP. He is obviously one of those guys who sees HS as the good ole days. This girl was probably his HS crush he thought the timing was never right even though he was nothing more than a friend to her. And this run in was important enough to post on TD. Can’t see past the moment was just a moment for her and nothing more beyond that.

It’s not insecurity, it’s having respect for your spouse’s feelings. She blamed her husband but it was her that didn’t want to have coffee with you because she respected her spouse.

good lord, she is the one that chased me down.
I was trying to be polite since I didn't have time to chat.
I have a girlfriend, I just didn't want to be rude and say "in a hurry, gotta go".
I didn't really even want to go to lunch with her.
She just started up with "how are your parents, how is your sister etc" and I didn't have time to talk so I just said "hey, would could grab a coffee or lunch sometime" to continue the conversation instead of "hey, late for a meeting, take care"

I thought I was merely being polite.

What's hilarious is that it's always the husbands with the butt ugly wives who are the most protective, paranoid, and insecure.

Simple answer? Men are dogs and us being men realize that. You see many posters here talk about trying to frick married women, threads about it, etc.

So yeah, there's some insecurity about your SO hanging out with a guy, especially one on one.

And that doesn't excuse the women that cheat at all, it's just we know guys because we are one. Men a dogs.

I didn't tell her.
I didn't think it was a big deal.

But big enough of a deal you made a post on a random message board?

Tell her and report back…

IMO she just didn't want to get coffee with you. If she did, she would've likely had said yes and then mention it to her husband, or a "let me check in with my husband, give me your number so I can let you know". Most guys aren't that insecure. I've met with old female friends before without my wife, and vice versa.

Though her husband could be a particularly insecure guy

Well, she isn't a husband so I didn't thinkt that she would have insight into why husbands are so pathetic and insecure.

Ehhhh. It's not insecurity, so much as it is a guardrail. I don't have lunch, ever, with female coworkers alone. All my other female friends are married, and I've either become friends with their husbands or significantly slowed contact.

Respect that covenant. She and her husband obviously do.

Exactly. Just a mutual respect thing and not wanting to put each other in an odd position. Sign of a healthy relationship IMO. May seem weird to an outsider but respectable.

Really? I’ve had lunch with female coworkers on countless occasions alone and never once did it cross my mind that it was “inappropriate”. Maybe it comes with the territory as I was in a female dominated undergrad major, and have largely worked with females. My boss is a female, and I couldn’t count the times that I’ve had lunch with her alone over the 15+ years that I’ve known her. I’ve been married for 9 years.

I doubt that she would care if I had lunch with a childhood friend, a married on at that.

I have a girlfriend, my old neighbor is married...but yeah, having lunch with a childhood friend means I'm gonna bang her.

weird, I'm surprised some of you let your wives leave the house.

If you don't trust her and think she's that much of a slut then why did you marry her?

What if your wife was working on a hot project and had lunch with the male product manager to discuss the project?

That's what it's like in the real world, not enough hours in the day and you gotta eat sometime.

Would you trust her to have a business lunch with a male colleague ?

I just can't imagine going through life so terrified and insecure that if my wife had lunch with a male coworker that she is going to bang him.

If you think she's a whore then why did you marry her?
