I just asked my wife how she would react to the scenario. "It depends on the friend." Friend A, wife of oldest friend, is a bit on the homely side. She'd be OK with that. Friend B, wife of next oldest friend, is a bit on the hot side. Not OK.

Trust him totally, it not about owning him its about respect and alot of women do not have that respect. Those I call scooter trash.

My husband came home one day and told me about one of the girls in his office asked him for a ride. He told her that she would have to ask me, that is my husband having respect for my feelings. I would have told her sure go for a ride. But that spot behind him is a very intimate spot and also to speak of the liability if the women has never been on the back of a bike. She can make him wreck simply by doing something stupid. Don't want to take that chance.

Not mad, understand your opinion and respect it.
In reading his original post - he stated that "a long time family friend named Nancy called the house needing help". Was not a stranger. My advice for this dude - hang up on the chick after telling them to stick the thumb out and take your chances there. That way his wife won't get mad. Unless Nancy happens to get picked up by a rapist and murderer - then the guy is up **** creek again. It was a friend - she needed help. He really did the honorable thing. I think.

This sounds like a salt wound.

I would have never said a thing.

Hmmmm, long time family friend huh? Then does make you wonder why the wife is pissed. LOL! Obviously she wasn't on the "approved" list to ride on that passenger seat.

I just asked my wife if it would be cool if another woman could ride on the back of my scoot. She said, dummb question!!! Only my mother, mother-in-law and sister have permission to ride on the back of my scoot. That's it, no one else. So if you see me on the road with a 80 year old women on the back, she is not my girlfriend.

Ride Safe

She's thinking your friend had to hold you around your waist, and maybe it could lead to something. Just sayin'

It's a matter of respect and you chose do DIS it based on the situation at the time.It's that same respect that makes you want to go help the gal in distress at all. It was surley right to help out and "old friend" of the family . I would have taken the truck to avoid the any perceptions and my truck has way more tools ya might need to get her broke down vehicle going. Weather the seat is "sacred" or not,most women think it is so it's a risk -v- reward each time you violate that simple assumption, and it's too easy not too,. We all make our own choices.
