    no

    as long as your husband is aware of it and knows who you are with, I don't see a problem.

    I'd be 'ripping mad' if my wife went for a meal with an ex!

    I can imagine that it would be appealing Brooke but it's a BIG no-no in my world.

    Not that i know your situation but i would wager that he's not just interested in 'friendship'.

    Peace

    He's probably after one thing. Enough said.

    Hi Brooke,

    Why turn down a free meal? Seriously, how does your husband feel about this? And how would you feel if your husband asked a former gf out to dinner?

    I personally don't think it's a good idea, but I don't have any former bf's I'd want to see either.

    However, something seems odd about it and his reasons to meet after all this time

    Perhaps he's seen you newest avatar.

    I say he's being naughty. If you are happily married, I would suggest not going alone.

    I think you should either A) take hubby along to get the point across, or B) tell him no, and be stern about how weird it seems to you.

    We women are such suckers but the men know what other men are up to and they smell a rat.

    I'm not married, but I know my bf wouldn't be happy if I agreed to meet another man for dinner. (I know cos I just asked him). Even if his intentions were honourable, it wouldn't be worth the probable friction doing such a thing would cause. You could always test him out by inviting him round to meet your husband and kids. If he wasn't keen on that, you'd have a pretty good idea what his real reasons for wanting to have dinner with you alone are.

    Tell him that you and your husband will be glad to eat with him.
