It's hard to know if your wife was within her rights to advise the assistant or if she was interfering.

Either way, your loyalty is supposed to be with your wife, so you may need to stop riding with this guy if you want peace in your home. But honestly it sounds like your wife is being petty and immature. Is she unable to work out conflicts with people she disagrees with?

IF she works in the same area as this colleague, why does she not carpool with you two also?

DO you live in the US?

Well, just from what you have written, it does seem that your wife was out of line. While her intentions were good, it is generally considered inappropriate to offer unsolicited advice.

Very odd to be arguing with your co-worker and his assistant.

Thank You for Your reply. My wife work in the same area, but not in the same company. We live in Europe, and are from different countries. That might be the difference in understanding and thinking. I ask, to find answers, to get more understanding. I am aware that it might be that it is I who are wrong. But, in my thinking it is like this: one challenge do not involve the other. For me it seems more like a childish way, that I am expected to act as a instrument for my wife to get "revenge". But - maybe it is I who are wrong... even if I think not....

It does sound like that's what she wants, but that's not fair of her to expect that of you.

Any chance we can see this in the original language?

It's my opinion only but I don't think your wife is right in asking you to give up shared ridership....or even friendship....with somebody she doesn't like unless she also rides with the two of you?
Even then, she ought to grow up if it's a money saver or unless it means like an hour or so every day
