Yes, there is. There's a hurry, Xander. I'm dying...I may have as few as fifty years left.

[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

Then Hubs emailed me saying, "Thanks. I really appreciate it. She called and asked me if I talked to you I said no."
you should "accidentally" forward that to her. And obviously, the wife knew something was up if she asked the husband if he had talked to you.

That man was going to shank me. Over an omelette. Two eggs and a slice of government cheese. Is that what my life is worth?

Yep.
it's such a patronising move.
And yep.

Always Anti-fascist!
I could see that, maybe he's Fixer Guy, right? And maybe she got a little spun out, like, "Does Aimee hold it against me for that day my deodorant stopped working? Maybe it's my breath..." And instead of listening, or telling her how fun she is, he thinks he's Making It Okay. But I'm embarrassed for both of them. I hope you have fun anyway, though.

Shit's all sorts of different now.
But he lied to her!
I know, and while I have an issue with that, I know that sometimes I lie to Joe about some things, too and what he lies to his wife about is not my business nor my marriage, so I try to look at his intentions instead of the whole picture when it comes to stuff like this.

So if she asks you, Aims, if her DH spoke to you will you lie?

In all honesty? I'd probably hedge. This is not the first time that he has called me to say, "Could you call J? She's feeling kind of lonely right now." or "Hey - can you include J in that other thing you're doing with other people?"
I get what he's after, but the more I think about it, the more I'm tired of being put in the place of Social Director for his wife and I'm getting kind of mad about it. There might need to be a Discussion soon about this.

Hells yeah. But good things that have happened also had good intentions.
