    You said mutual friends. Unless they are involved in a plural marriage, these friends were not the injured parties. Furthermore, anyone who who makes death threats to another over infidelity, especially the infidelity of a third party, is not only breaking the law, has sociopathic tendencies. You can express disapproval without threatening to kill someone and clearly your friend did not believe they were figures of speech or idle threats.

    I never suggested that the death threats no matter who delivered them were excused. I’m not sure what position you’re taking here.

    My stories have generally been funny, not harrowing. But you’re too stupid understand that.

    I didn't notice you condemning their behavior or referring to them as former mutual friends. Were there no indications that these friends were predisposed to this kind of behavior? Such character traits don't appear out of the blue.

    Inter-marital affairs are not rare at all. I have seen many of them with a few ending up in remarriages. Usually it is the woman that makes the move. Woman can be very competitive with each other. Perfect marriages are a fable for the naive.

    I’ve never run across this situation among my friends before, so there was no indication that this would be the reaction of some. This came out of the blue as was their response.

    When I said “former friends” I was referring to the former friends of the single man having an affair with a good friend’s wife. They are not my former friends. I’m trying to maintain my friendship with all parties.

    If you are willing to overlook such behavior, you effectively condone it. If your friend is running, he believes his life is in danger from your mutual friends. Are they killers or criminals? Does he know something about them that you don't?
