Well on topic I believe this goes back to the "booty call" mentality many women have turned to these days, if you don't even want a dinner before you let a stranger screw you, why not a bad line and even buy the guy drinks? Maybe his indifference to the woman to be so crude painted him as not really interested in *** with her so now he was a challenge........
I don't have a clue why women fall for that stuff, I guess because they want to, but guys, them I understand, guys want ***, and many (not all) will "hit" anything they can get to hold still long enough. Find the ugliest woman in the bar and watch her......maybe not when the night is young, but as the night wears on, guys will start hitting on her and at closing time, she will be snatched up by someone (if she wants it).
snaf....
I don't really understand.......is your wife taking "Jack's" side? You seem to be saying the guy is just looking for excuses, that would be supportive of "Jill", why would your wife not like you being supportive of her best friend? Sounds strange to be honest.
I don't get involved in relationships with friends, it is a dead end road that forces people to choose sides and even get ugly with one party. I refuse. The only people who know what was happening with these two people are them, it is impossible to know all the little details that could be upsetting one or the other but they are not sharing all the details......let me give you an example from me being strange:
I hate.....let me say this again, I hate it when someone brushes their teeth then spray little spit/paste dots on my mirror. I also hate the blop of ketchup under the lid of a squeeze bottle, gross. Little details like that may not be noticed while two people are still in the '****' phase of their relationship but sooner or later as things cool off to a more standard relationship, the little irritations start showing up and suddenly, excuses to not stay together will appear.
