My husband's friend has been inviting us over his and his wife's house. We've known them for 2 years. Yesterday we were there and he kept staring at me and when we left he hugged me and after held my hand looking into my eyes. What does this mean?... I haven't been able to stop thinking about him. I'm hoping to see him again real soon. Am I wrong for thinking this?
You have already committed adultery in your heart. (Matthew 5:28) "But I tell you that anyone who looks at a woman lustfully has already committed adultery with her in his heart"
Obviously this goes for woman as well. Man is just used most commonly, like when we say "mankind".
Whether your husband is willing to "watch him to ensure his actions are proper" or not isn't going to stop him if he really wants to try something. Your husband should be repulsed by this man and cease all communication, not just for a time. You have the power as a married woman to have yelled out against that man having touched you that way in the first place. In fact, you have the right to never step foot in that man's house again.
I know for a fact that if another man came near me, the wrath my husband would feel would be like that of Jesus in the temple. There is no grounds WHAT SO EVER that we can accept that kind of behavior. My husband worded it perfectly when he said that these days in marriage a lot of people are like that person who gets hungry and goes to the fridge to find something to eat, satisfies that hunger and is full so they no longer desire to eat. Often times, we neglect our spouse in many crucial ways that we should not. Don't find satisfaction in your husband when convenient and then in other men when you're feeling like he's no longer doing "it" for you.
(Galatians 6:7) "Do not be deceived: God cannot be mocked. A man reaps what he sows"
You vowed to love your husband for life. Through sickness and in health, richer or poor, better or worse. Not only that but you made that vow before God.
(Matthew 18:18) "
Truly I tell you, whatever you bind on earth will be bound in heaven, and whatever you loose on earth will be loosed in heaven.
The Lord praises marriage. It is one of the most amazing bonds He created for us to enjoy. Everything done in marriage is pure. There is nothing we are limited to when it is with our ONE spouse.
Do yourself a favor and stay away from friends in general. It's the best thing my husband and I could have done for ourselves. We have our family, which is mostly Christians so we study together, pray together and hang out together. If that's what you need to limit your social circle to in order for things like this to not happen, then so be it.
