    But really....speaking from experience. If you continue communicating or seeing her things will only end badly. Sounds to me like she is playing the both of you. Playing her hand to see what her hubby's next move will be. Perhaps hoping he will make the decision she can't on her own...divorce. I've been down that road and it ended in divorce on both sides.

    ^This^

    The consensus is pretty strong, you know what you need to do, but you're fighting it. Look at the way she's treating her husband...that could easily be you in a couple years. Cut all ties, and move on.

    For godsake this is NOT rocket science. She is MARRIED you have NO business being caught in the middle of their problems. Walk away and STAY away.

    That means NO chats on Facebook, no phone calls no contact whatsoever. Once you knew she was married you should have put distance between you and kept it there.

    She is looking for a new place to land & you are the sucker she has chosen. Cut ties now before you get in over your head. You've already got one foot on a banana peel. Keep it up and she is going to take you down with her.

    Can't say I know much about women, but at 61 yrs. of age, I have been around a while. IMHO, there's no easy solution to your problem. But I don't see how you can stay friends with either of them as long as they are together. Put yourself in your friend's shoes and ask yourself what you would do if your "homie" might have done something with your wife. He will always be wondering if you instigated it at all, especially if you admitted to having feelings for her.

    No way this can end well. Apologize and walk away before it gets ugly. Good luck.

    Hey man, if you don't want to take this any further, then I would quit spending nights on their couch and de-friend her on f-book and every other way.

    Single women can be enough to deal with, a married one can be a lot more trouble than they are worth. Just my 2 pennies.

    Mr. Reeter is a wise man. Take his advance as well as many others.

    I would make the mistake to hit it real good once or twice, then walk away. Don't do this!!

    Cathy nailed it, and everyone else concurs. You simply don't screw around with another mans wife no matter how innocent it appears. If you want to keep walking in an upright position, you best back away quick. Friends can be replaced, body parts....not so much.

    I also agree, move on, delete them as "friends". If for some reason down the road you bump in to her at a gas station she says she's single and you are too, then possibly it was meant to be... same goes for him, maybe you walk into each other lives again down the road and all is good, well then sir, you have a friend. You either have to retreat or go in with all guns blazin (knock her up and sign up for an episode on Springer). Best to retreat for all parties involved, mostly for you.

    My thoughts exactly, only in Sicily people with these such problems have a tendency to disappear. Hence my words of caution.

    Youth of today have a hard time deciphering between reality....and a reality TV show. If you invite the drama, you must also suffer the consequences.

    that is exactly the answer i have been looking for, and what i know i need to do. im having trouble because most people i have known here have already transferred and it was seeming like i finally settled into a new group of friends, cutting ties with them means cutting them with many others as well, because we all end up at the same location by early in a friday or saturday night, not just those 2 and myself, so that is playing a big part in dragging my feet on this. im not usually the person to stop going somewhere to avid seeing someone, they can leave or avoid me, i dont care if i hate you or love you, we can, note i said can, not do, act like the adults were are and be tactful, and pleasant. this isnt so simple though.

    Assuming you are at NAS Sigonella, I am fairly certain there are far more places to hang out at than the one place that *they* all end up at.

    Fact is, you are setting yourself up for misery and not cutting all ties ASAP is going to lead to nothing but trouble. Not to mention how JAG feels about adultery. If you enjoy your career, run, don't walk away from this situation.

    i am at sig, and living on the air base without a car(engine will be finished next week), base housing is about the only place to go, because the base bar is worse than that, and housing is usually where i end up. now the handful of friends i have, either spend their nights at clubs, bars, discotecas, and strip joints, most places which i dont like to go to, im not big into the clubbing scene, and tried to stay away when i ended up being the guy who has to break up fights, because im not a small guy, and i usually keep my intake well under control( not always, but i can count those occurrences on one hand), and dont wanna be involved with that kinda trouble. so i tried going out with just a couple friends, ended i went to sleep in the car when i got tired/bored, woke up to the car crashing into a ditch, theyre trying to get me for "letting it happen", so i hung out in housing with some friends, and refer to the OP for how that one turned out. didnt have these problems when i stay home or when i was spending time out in town with the yuliya(russian girl).so am looking for new friends and places to hang out, and not doing a whole lot of going out for now.
