I think that women should not have close male friends especially when they had married. The reason is just simply they had married. Of course, who would like their wife to be so close with another guy?

Women also have to think about the consequences if their husband found out that his wife is getting too close with another male friend. Their husband first reaction is getting jealous and slowly lost the trust between he and his wife. This will then  be a serious issue. This is because, very often, women would approach to the close male friend and talk about how her husband being too sensitive. Divorce could be the next alternative.

However, if their husbands understand that their wife had a close male friend and the husband is open about it. Then I think it is OK.

I believe that the roles of husband are a support to the wife in terms of financial, mental and emotional. Thus, I see no reason why must women chat with another male friend to de-stress. I agreed with the male friends who take steps to prevent misunderstanding between married couples. But, i find it too harsh to totally stop contacting. Maybe the friends could meet up for lunch with the couple to have more interactions. I would like to suggest that for married couple, the most important thing is the mutual trust. Hence, whatever happens, they must stand strong with reasons and trust between each other.
