Seriously, I strongly think you should have a talk with your female friend to clarify the situation. Maybe she did hit on you at some point in her life when she was feeling bad for reasons you don't know, and she dearly regrets it today. Everybody is entitled to make mistakes, even emotional mistakes, now and again. And no relationship, however strong, goes forever without doubts creeping in sometimes. I haven't lived with the same guy for 15 years without knowing that. And by avoiding her, you don't allow for this momentary mistake to heal, and you cut yourself from two friends. Believe me, talk to her.

Maybe. She and I never had that sort of communication as I was friends with the husband not her. I'm not bothered by it, and it hasn't made things awkward between us as I played dumb. I think she'd be more relieved if she thought I didn't "get it".

In any case the opportunity hasn't arisen as I rarely see her, if it did come up - well mayhap, but otherwise......
