| The fine line between friendly and too friendly - where does the favour end?
Posted: 4/3/2009 4:54:49 PM | So… the other night I’m over at a friend’s house for a relaxing evening. He makes a wonderful dinner and after we load the dishwasher, we settle in the livingroom with a movie and some drinks.
Well, I guess I was a little more thirsty than I had originally thought and before I knew it, I had polished off half a bottle of liqueur and started feeling a little sluggish. So I relax a bit more and prop my feet up onto the coffee table and lean back… well… while getting comfy, I started to pull some of the comforter that he and I were sharing onto me a little more to accommodate my new position only to find that he was… spanking his monkey!
Just what is a gal to do? Was I suppose to jump in and help or apologize and cover him up again? Is there a rule on etiquette for this situation... ?

Posted: 4/3/2009 5:07:18 PM | | Wow! I have plenty of friends, both male and female, but none who would be diddling themselves under a blanket while we sat there watching a movie, regardless of how comfortable we were. Obviously you need to reexamine your friendship with this cretinous lout, and establish some clearly defined boundaries if he is going to continue to be in your life. | |

The only one I could think of is 'pick better friends'........... I can't say it any different than that.
The reason I have as many female friends to begin with, and the reason their boyfriends or husbands (if they have them) don't mind me hanging around them when they're not around is because they KNOW I'm not the type to do that sort of thing in the first place.....
Being that I noticed you're listed as 'not single/not looking'.... it would seem to me that this guy committed a breach of trust not only on YOU...but on your man as well. It ultimately shows what somebody's 'potential' is later on down the road when somebody might be in a more 'vulnerable' position. Like if the couple isn't 'doing so well' at any given time...... | |

Posted: 4/3/2009 5:10:54 PM | I'm sorry, Psssst, but I can't stop laughing!  I can just envision that scenario.
Did your 'friend' say anything about his monkey being loose? What DID you do? Inquiring minds want to know. How long have you been friends and has it always been strictly platonic? Were you sexually involved at one point in time? You couldn't see the comforter going up and down prior to adjusting it?
If you are platonic friends and always have been, I would say to him that you are uncomfortable with that behavior. If you have been sexually involved before and you no longer want that type of a relationship, let him know that and stress that his behavior was inappropriate. If you would like a romantic situation, offer to help him out next time the 'subject' comes up! | |

Posted: 4/3/2009 5:26:32 PM | OMG!! That is hilarious! But NOT!!
Ohhh...I would have SPANKED that monkey!! And NOT in the same way!! 
Seriously. Its my opinion that he overstepped the friendship boundaries. Of course.
Soo...what should you have done? Oh lord...I don't even know. I'm curious, though...what DID you do? | |

Posted: 4/3/2009 5:27:25 PM | And what kind of movie did the two of you rent? lol
I just can't stop laughing, I have tears in my eyes and I'm also snorting. I'm speechless for the first time in my life and it had to be bad if you were left speechless. :)
I have no clue what I would have done. I would have been so shocked that I either would have laughed in his fact or have turned red, apologized and covered it back up. How to even look him in the face after that or regain composure and try to have a conversation. I would have left and I would totally uncomfortable to ever see him again. I would always have the picture in my mind of him spanking the monkey.
That reminds me of the time I went to the zoo and a monkey was spanking and a kid asked his mom what he was doing and the mom said he was playing. Her face was bright red after her kid asked him that.
I now have to tell everyone I know this story. Sorry Pssst but I just have to. I think even my dog is giggling now.

PS. I am curious to know what he would have done with his hummm, man juice when he was done. | |

Posted: 4/3/2009 5:55:12 PM | Let's see. The OP had 1/2 a bottle of liqueur, we can assume he had the other half. She was cozy, comfy and feeling at home. He was probably feeling the same way. I'm thinking I would be more concerned about that comforter and what has or has not transpired under/on it before it was laying on top of me. I mean if the guy was that happy with her there, how happy does he get when he's all alone under that comforter. ***Ewwww ~ shudder***
~OP~ I don't know, I'm hoping this good "friend" is the man you are dating or the man that keeps you "not single/not looking." If it's not one and the same ~ I think the scenerio would be called: "indecent exposure."  If it is one and the same, I think it's called: "pay attention ~ I'm over heeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeere." | |

Honestly, I don't know what I would do. Probably play dumb and pretend I didn't see anything, excuse myself, go to the bathroom and talk myself into leaving.
Am I the only one who would have probably burst out laughing and uh...engaged in a staring contest with that one-eyed monster, just to see who would blink first?

Posted: 4/3/2009 6:11:16 PM | Pssst, please tell me he drank the other half of that bottle of alcohol. And, pray tell, what genre of movie were you watching? If you're close enough to watch porn together, you're close enough to masturbate together, I suppose.
In any event, I think the proper ettiquette is to point and laugh and say, "Look how cute it is!"
