A choice I never wanted to make

[fpb]

If you break contacts with a man, whatever the reason, you cannot keep in touch with his wife, even if she is your friend and has been so since before she married. Because you are in danger of becoming a cause of argument between the two of them, which is worse than anything else you could do. To the person I defriended: please don't feel bad about it - it is because I value your marriage and family nearly as much as you do.
