What do you think of a man sharing his bed with another woman who is not his girlfriend/wife?

Question

How of you girls out there can accept a situation like that and believe nothing happened?

How many men and women out there can believe that nothing happens when a man and a woman take a holiday together, sharing a room and a bed? Just for budget sake!!!! Can you trust a man or a woman who does that? Can a girlfriend trust a man who does that?

Answer 1

Not acceptable to me and never will be.
Sounds like a poor & pathetic excuse to jump in bed with another woman and I don't mean just to sleep.
"Budgets sake" is lame, if this was your partner doing this leave him, beds can be very alluring (of course, think of bed and what do you think of?!) and can mean one thing between a man & woman...nookies, lots of nookie.
Especially when on holiday when the partner is all the way back at home.

A girlfriend cannot trust a man who does that, like I said before, its a poor excuse sharing a room and bed for "Budgets sake" if they wanted to budget they should've found a place that charges two SEPARATE rooms instead of that one but for a similar price!

Answer 2

Of course, it is entirely possible that it is platonic.

Normally, people having affairs, or sexually attracted to each other, do not advertise the fact that they are sharing a bed on holiday. However, in the mind of the partner left at home, there will be queries about what will happen, so, out of respect, most people won't entertain the idea of sharing a room and bed with a friend of the opposite sex, even if it does save money to do so.

I think it all comes down to knowing the other person involved in this well enough to trust them with your partner, as well as the trust you have with your partner in the first place. With some people, you know that nothing will ever happen, with others, it will always be a suspicion.

Best to avoid the whole scenario in the first place. Having said that, having separate rooms is no guarantee either.

Answer 3

Of course it's possible. If my husband did it, how I'd feel would most likely depend on the person sharing the bed. If it was someone I knew well and trusted, then I wouldn't even think that they'd had an affair. If it was someone I didn't know, then I'm not sure. I suppose a lot of it would depend on the situation and circumstances.

Answer 4

A hard one to answer.

Complete love and trust in a situation like this is very difficult and it would depend on the circumstances. Very few men would be able to turn down the chance of sex on a plate and it is inevitable that sharing a room would make him feel that it was on offer wouldn't it?

I think it wrong of a man to put his partner into such a position.

Answer 5

Of course it could be possible that it is innocent and platonic. HOWEVER, if the wife of the man is worried about the situation, he should not do it - he has to respect his wife's concerns. If he is not married, but has a girlfriend who is worried, he has to decide whether to respect his girlfriend's wishes or if the platonic friend he will be sharing a bed with, means more to him.

I personally would NOT want my man sharing a bed with another woman under any circumstances!

Answer 6

If you are a straight guy and she is a straight girl (even the best of friends) sleeping in the same bed, you might not DO anything but I bet BOTH of you thought about it.

I don't believe that two people of the opposite sex can sleep in the same bed without at least thinking about getting your freak on with each other.

Answer 7

Wel i am right with you on this one. I actually share a bed with my ex-boyfriend. I ended having to move back to washington and this is the only bed thats avaiable. i guess i could sleep on the couch but why. we already know eachothers sleeping habits and we never cross that friend boundary. He has a girlfriend that comes over and hangs out and completly undestands. Its all about trust. If you are trustworthy then there is no problem with it.

Answer 8

i think it could happen for one night..but unless one of them or both are gay then a holiday is a bit of a stretch to the mind. it is normal to get a room with twin bed but not share a bed and it costs no more for that. someone is lying...it doesn't matter if something happened or not if you don't like it then don't accept it. why bother with anyone that makes you feel bad or insecure?

Answer 9

if my boyfriend or husband went on a business trip with a woman and shared a bed and all that or something, it would be very hard for me to believe that nothing happened between them. although i love him and trust him, that would be too much for me to handle. i think if i was the girl i that situation (laying next to someone who isnt even my boyfriend or husband) it would be uncomfortable for me. did this happen to you? i am so sorry. hope this helps! :D

Answer 10

Does not say much for the man. Unless he really feels for this other woman and she for him. Then sort out girlfriend/wife situation first. Life happens.
