What’s a Wife to Do When Her Husband Has Friendships with Other Women?

Is it wise to develop a friendship with the opposite sex when you’re married?  Would this outside relationship strengthen your marriage or weaken it?  What if your man has drawn close to another female?  Would this be a concern of yours?  Well, I can tell you it would be a concern of mine!  This scenario is what one woman is experiencing in her marriage.

Here’s her story…
