re: Why are you husbands so insecure about your wives?

Geesh, you fellas don't have much confidence that you're able to please your woman if you're that terrified of her having lunch or coffee with an old childhood friend. I would hate to go through life so pathetic and insecure.
This is most revealing of your own lack of confidence. You don't understand the devotion that made what she said easy for her to say, and you took her bluntness personally.
It's telling of herself as a good wife. It likely reflected her own self standard of behavior as much as her husband's.
Maybe you are naïve and don't know that the scenario of meeting up alone later on with an unmarried old friend of the opposite sex is not how most married people behave.
She was just setting a boundary for you real quick, which is a kindness too many young ladies lack in.
"Maybe sometime when my husband could come" is my go-to response.

Because out of respect for your spouse you don't go out to eat with the opposite sex who is attracted to you without consulting with them first.
It has nothing to do with insecurity. It's respect.
And the proper way to have asked to meet and catch up is to ask for her and her husband to get together with you sometime to catch up.

I think it’s time we finally addressed how absolutely corny this pickup line or whatever it is you want to call it, is
For some reason this shite just makes my skin crawl

What did your girlfriend say when you asked her opinion about this? I mean, if it is important enough to ask the internet you should have already asked your girlfriend. Did she think it was chivalry?

I have never and will never go on a coffee date. Sounds like some shite a Californian would do

You went wrong with the coffee proposal. Which has turned into a favorite first date meeting spot.
Doing lunch is much more casual. Can be implanted into the business day as an eat & move along type thing.

What does your wife think of that encounter?

You’re right, you’re no threat. Feel free to decorate my living room after.

This is exactly what he just doesn't want to understand. She shut the shite down quickly. She sounds like a great gal. Her husband found a good one. Hope she learned to stay away from old childhood friends who were attracted to her from now on though. She dodged a bullet!

After reading the whole thread...let me help you with how you should have handled it.
Politely explain you are late for a meeting and give her your card for her to call you if she would like to meet and catch up sometime instead of putting her on the spot to go out together.
You instead clumsily made your reply sound like a pickup line and she shot you down.

Older people don't have time for new friendships unless there's some common function or something useful for their family. She doesn't want to invest time in you because you have nothing to offer her. Why do you want to spend time with her? Young and have no kids?
Asking a married chick out actually implies more than if she were single and available.

Because I’ve never once asked a chick out that I wasn’t trying to frick. And neither have you.

I wouldn’t care. I’m not insecure and after 14 yrs, they can have her if they want.

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.

Not really, but if a husband or wife go out to lunch with someone of the opposite sex without letting the significant other know then it’s probably already a lost cause. Women can cheat anytime, a man cheats because of the opportunity he might stubble upon

You've come to the right place.
