Dear Gentlemen,My best friend's wife has made it clear that she wants to have sex with me. Their relationship is on the rocks but I don't want to be the one to put in the final smash. But I haven't had sex in months and the temptation for no-strings with a hottie is great. What would a gent do in these times of moral relativity?
Sincerely,
Best Friend, Clearwater, Florida
Dear Mr. Best Friend,
No.
A gentleman does not sleep with his best friend's wife. He does not do it to help end a relationship. He does not do it because he needs some love. He does not do it because she's hot. He does not do it in a cot.
No, a gentleman does not sleep with his best friend's wife.
But take heart, your situation proves that morality is not relative. There is at least one true rule in this modern, shifting, and constantly connected world: Don't sleep with your best friend's wife.
There are also several practical reasons to abstain from boffing your best friend's wife. You will lose your friend, the sex will likely be awkward, you are probably being used as a pawn, and your present and future friends will never trust you. Don't sleep with your best friend's wife.
Singularly,
The Gentlemen
G3nt: good answer. I'm glad you didn't soft-ball this one, cause there's really no grey area here. In my opinion, even the exes (wives & girlfriends) of friends are off limits. There's too many goddam fish in the sea for a man to risk losing a lifelong friendship over a woman.
