Is he crossing the line?

[Tintlelli]

The part that shouts at me is that your buddy seems "bright," so incredibly happy. That is really sad. I can only see heartbreak--huge heartbreak--because it's likely she's going to abandon him and get more serious with "weekend guy" or with another guy. I think your buddy needs to get out before he is deeply hurt. You should tell him you're worried and you think something is wrong with the picture, tell him he shouldn't get so excited over this woman (but it's probably too late for that). He could listen or he could not listen, but at least you know you spoke up and tried to help.

Thanks for all the responses! Wow, great help! I'm trying to get him on the path with God and Christ. They have helped me more than words can say. I also don't want him to get hurt cause his divorce hit him really hard, nearly to the point of suicide. Maybe i'm play'n big brother, but i think he needs protected. but then again, who am i to think i am protecting him when Christ is?

I probably should just butt out, and probably will. What will happen was meant to happen. Guess i'm still a controll freak.

God bless you guys/gals! Thanks for the help!

I think this is one of those situations in which one must refer to the old dictum, "Do you want to be right or do you want to be happy?".

Your buddy is a big boy capable of making decisions and bearing the consequences. It's not like he's oblivious to the details of this arrangement...he's just thinking with his johnson. I'm pretty sure you'll come out as the bad guy if you intercede. Just MHO, but I'd let him charge headfirst into this and be there as the best friend in the aftermath.
