sorry to hear OP

The only missing, specific, detail is that some of the clothing in the drawer was lingerie. To me though, underwear is probably an accurate description since I would imagine that they were both in the same one, but that might be incorrect.

Would like to hear the story

like

Go to a pool party
Somehow blackout on a relatively little amount of alcohol (add no food, water, and it being hot might explain it)
Get dropped off at friend's house to sleep it off
Friend leaves, I sleep, or so I thought
Hours later, wake up to friend pissed at me for apparently going through his house opening drawers, doors, and who knows what else like a goddamn squirrel.
Find out one drawer happened to be a female underwear drawer, makes me look like a pervert and I knew it was over. Still no idea what my motivations were. Was like waking up as a child molester, because there was no lead up or rational reason to be looking through his shit. The unconscious behavior was totally unpredictable and unexplainable. Have never even thought of clothing as sexual on it's own. I don't know why I would go around looking through stuff that wasn't mine.
Get kicked out of the house around 1 am and have to drive back home

I knew we are capable of bad things, but I always thought you'd be able to retrace your steps and follow your brain's logic as to why you did things, but I don't even know the full scope of what I did or the timeline. I have never been more detached from the conscious and unconscious of my psychology. I feel untouchable and diseased, toxic and cancerous while also feeling like I just happened to get hit by lightning. Like just unlucky and that it isn't a personal indictment because it's a 1 in a million event. Essentially an accident that wouldn't have happened the other 99% of the time.

If that’s what ruined your 20 year friendship I don’t think y’all were that good of friends to begin with.

I mean, if you took emotions out of it, it's not a huge deal relative to the 20 years. However, the emotions cloud all and he's not rationally assessing this fluke versus the history. I can't blame him though, why would you associate with someone that appears to be a creepy sexual deviant, from his probable perspective as mentioned in another reply. I can barely stand myself at the moment and I don't even know exactly what I was doing. I also think it's technically romantic to do what's necessary for the marriage, however flawed the logic or ultimately doomed it may be.

Personal or professional?

One thing you learn around 30- you absolutely cannot get between a man and his wife. It doesnt matter if you know him five times as long as she has, respect his chosen partner.

She probably feels extremely violated. While you might know him for ages, my guess is you dont have those years of relationship to contextualize this. I think she’s fully within her rights to ban you from her home, and not see you again. Cant see myself as a husband siding with you over my wife

like

Non problem. Id give them a few weeks of space. Perhaps a letter of apology to the wife at that point

Are you okay?

Thanks

What happened? You good?

Hope you’re good. We’re here to hear you out if you need to vent at all

I hope everything is OK, OP. 😕

Is this related to the post the other day that asked what’s considered cheating

Sorry man, you really never know what will happen when you black out. Hopefully your friend will be understanding. Im very careful to never get close to that level now, since I’m so scared I’ll do something similar.

Definitly odd. Don’t think I would have consider anyone a good friend if I didn’t feel comfortable accepting their wives social media requests for fear of the perception it might give off

How many married professionals with young families are just sticking it out “for the kids”? Marriage is very dead and has been for a while. Young kids 4 and 1. My wife and I don’t fight, but share 0 interests outside of the kids and can’t stand to be around each other. I’m so ready to leave… I just can’t bear the thought of doing it to my children even though another part of me feels like wife and I would both be better parents if our lives were separate. Anyone else done a similar analysis?
