Is it right for my husband to try to keep me away from my friend?

I have this friend lets call her M. I admit she isnt the best person but she is a lot of fun. The reasons my husband doesnt want me to hang out with her. Is one she is prostitute, not like name calling, but she a few times she has had sex for money. Also she uses any guy she can for money. She also is having three affairs with married men and one of them is her other bestfriends bother in law She also use to have me come drink with her in parking lots when we use to work together a club. I ended up getting a dui one night before working with her. Also one night she ended up getting us into in a fight we another group of girls, she decided to take off her heels and bust a girls head open. Because she committed a crime I ended up getting charged with battery and going to jail for the night. I know these things sound bad about her but she is really a nice person and a lot of fun. I dont think its right my husband tries to keep me away because he thinks she is trouble

So what in that paragraph describing your social misfit friend points to her being a nice person? Is he right to keep you away from her? No. You're an adult, you can do what you want. Does he have REASONS for keeping you away from her? Well, I think you already answered that question yourself.

Just think if she try to use your husband then what will you do. she is risky for you and you husband is wise man who really cares you that he keeps you away from her, So be loyal to your husband. Do not break relationship with her but be careful with your friend.

Well, judging from your description of your friend, it certainly isnt wrong of him to try.

Wow, HelloWorld, did you belong to a gang when you were in high school? I've read your other posts, about hitting your husband and your jealousy, etc. Now, your husband wants you to stop seeing a prostitute is committing triple adultery, drinks in parking lots, but you don't understand why?

Your husband sounds like a normal person, how did he mean you? Seriously, does he have a saviour complex? Because you are going to break his heart.

Gosh you have done a lot for someone so young :) No one should tell you what to do but your "friend" sounds like a handful. Seriously you have to work out whether you want to save your marriage and grow up or not.Only you can choose :)

I'm not sure what is meant by "keep me away from my friend". Does he try to physically stop you from calling or visiting your friend? Does he say things to discourage you from calling or visiting your friend?

From what I've read, it seems that you are a ********. In my younger years, I visited quite a few of others in your profession, who were supposedly there working to pay their way through college - like I believed that (okay, I did at first!)

Quite a few women seem to be getting into the stripping thing, after being pink-slipped from other high paying professional jobs. Some people have an image of a ******** in a more upscale-seeming setting, whereas others think of them as prostitutes eager to get a guy into a special room with a glory hole, to make an extra $100 or something like that.

It sounds as if your husband thinks of you more in the path of those who were either trying to get through college, or perhaps having been kept out of or dropped from a profession with a different level of societal esteem. It seems that he thinks your friend is more of a "glory hole gal" person. If he was in grad school, he was probably thinking that you would out-grow being in the company of a "glory hole gal" type person, and is perhaps disappointed in this, coupled with the accounts of abuse you've given in other postings.

You might want to severly limit/curtail your association with your friend, and give more of your efforts to working on your medical and other issues (including, and I say this as a guy whose been abused before, making sure that your husband doesn't feel like he is only 1" erect or whatever). In other words, perhaps you and your husband can have a really good future together, if you had activities that he felt safer about not jeopardizing both of your futures.

Best of luck on this.

Well, she sure sounds like one class act....

There are a lot of things about this person, for your husband to be concerned about....

Your other posts suggest that you are abusing your husband....and this one suggests that he's controlling who your friends are....I'm not sure if this is actually real, but if it is....You two need to separate....you are so unhealthy for each other.....

I think if you went to a counselor, and described this "friend", you would be advised against hanging out with such a person.....Your husband is not in the wrong, in my opinion...he may very well be concerned for your well-being....I just wish he'd be a little more concerned with his own.

Normally I would say no he doesn't have the right, unless your "friends" cause problems with the relationship.
After reading about your friend, I would say hell yes he has a right to object to this particular friend.

It seems your husband worries about you. He doesn't want you to end up in jail again. But he has no right to tell you what to do, you can only take his advice and decide for yourself. However, your friend appears to be in a mess. Talk to her and explain to her that there are better ways to make incomes. Put all fun aside and think of the consequences.

You know I've been answering your questions throughout the evening and I am sorry but I have missed judge your intent and sincerity. My question to you is why are you married?

You just explained yourself why you should not associate with this person. I stand with your hubby.

WEll, from reading the other posts, and then this one, it just makes me wonder if this could actually be real. No, he shouldn't make you do anything, but I don't blame him not wanting you to hang out someone who seems to promote bad habits. You know the things that she does, they way that she is, but yet you seem to connect the fact that maybe there's a reason why he wouldn't want you to hang out her. She's a lot of fun? Sure, for someone single and doesn't need to worry about things. You're married and you seem to think that doing what you want is much more important than being considerate to another person, a very important person, your husband. Your actions come off as if you'd rather not be married. You wonder why he doesn't do anything to help anymore? You driven him to the point that he just doesn't care. More than likely, you've killed his self esteem and no longer feels that he's good enough anymore. Hmm. I wonder why? You need to get yourself together. And if you don't want to change anything, then it's nobody's fault but your own.

Read your story again and then say she is a lot of fun etc.

Time to run. You may be her friend, but she is not yours.

Well ask yourself this question? If I had a daughter would I want her to hang around with a woman like this? Well? What was your answer?
Your husband can speak his mind. But its your choice. He can also divorce you.
