Well, another female opinion....I'm not jealous....and I've learned through the years that no matter what you do or don't do or let your man do, or not do.....they will do what they want. Meaning, they're there if they want to be there and if they don't want to be there, well then, you can't do much to change it. That being said.....it wouldn't bother me if my husband gave a friend of ours a ride. I ride my own, and if we have a friend that wants or needs a ride, then so be it. I know who he'll be going home with. I would prefer to be told about it before it happens but in your situation, your friend needed a ride and you gave her a ride. I guess the bike is more personal than a car but a ride is, well, a ride.

Maybe ya should have told your wife the situation first then asked her what she thought you should have done. Odds are, she might have said giving her a lift would have been ok. As you told her the whole story, the tude went up and she heard nothing else that ya said. Sorta the control thing. If she gives the answer first, then its ok.
Ya gotta study them closely before ya say, "I do".

Well - I am not the jealous type. I would be more upset if my old man didn't go help this friend. He would have told me he had given her a ride home - waited for the tow truck - whatever. Now, if she was handing out favors - like rubbing you and kissing your neck - you leave that stuff out. Gave her a ride home. That is it. I don't know why your in the doghouse. I rode with my Best Friends Husband and it inspired me to get my own bike. Good luck.........

The back seat belongs to her. I would never even thing about giving another woman a ride without her permission.
My wife gets jealous when any woman (other than her mother) calls me for help with anything. Its just her way of showing how much she loves me.

Your version of a "family friend" must not be the same as her's. I read your post to my OL and she said she wouldn't care if I picked up a friend in need. But that sounds like a trick answer to me. I'd take the truck.

You messed up big time buddy, that was her seat and you let another woman sit there with out her approval, just the same as cheating on her, you need to be sucking up big time to her, might be time for her to get that new piece of jewelry.
