Guy Kicks His Friend Out Of The Bedroom So His Wife Can Take A Nap, Now Their Friendship Is Hanging By A Thread
Who comes first, your wife or friend?
Friendship is a delicate thing. It's built on trust, mutual respect, and shared experiences. But sometimes, even the strongest friendships can be tested.
As a married man, you learn pretty quickly that your wife comes first — that's just the way it is. But what happens when your wife and your best friend are in conflict?
It's a situation that one man recently found himself in, and it's causing a significant rift in his friendship.
The man, who shared his story on Reddit, explained that his wife and friend don’t have a cordial relationship. However, they try to tolerate each other as much as possible.
In his words, "My wife and E do not get along, as E makes her uncomfortable, but she and I don’t prevent one another from seeing friends just because one of us doesn’t like the other's friend."
Recently, E came to visit while the author's wife was at work. They spent hours playing video games, enjoying what seemed like a fun guys' day. But little did E know, his fun was about to come to an abrupt end.
The author's wife finally came home after an exhausting day, and what happened next would test the strength of their friendship.
Let's take a deep breath and dive into the story:

What started as a wonderful day quickly turned into an awkward situation. It's clear that the author's wife is his priority, but it's also evident that his friend is not happy about being pushed aside.
Only time will tell if this friendship can be mended. What do you think? Should the author apologize to his friend? Or was he right to ask his friend to leave?
