I would appreciate any advice anyone may have for me.
I have two close friends that my partner and I go out with socially - a few months ago my partner admitted that one of them (they are female and are in a relationship) had made a pass at him. I didnt know what to do but kept it to myself.
Over the months she tried another couple of times and eventually she blew up at him on an evening out.

I told my friend everything that had been going on - as I had had enough. She then turned round to me and said that her partner had said the same!
She relayed lots of very elaborate stories and I was horrified. They were both horrid to me and her partner was particularly defensive.

I have known my partner for 14 years and and we are very happy together. He has never been interested in women and has only had relationships with three girls including myself and no one night stands. I do beleive him as she always argues horribly with her partner when we are out and always says she wants to leave her. My partner and I are solid and about to get married in a couple of months and are buying a house together.
I beleive my partner, but how do we get over this? The things she said he did i just cant get out of my head and I cant look him in the face at the moment.
I feel like her lies have ruined our wedding and dont know what do do about it.
Someone please help. xx

Dear Janet,

I wonder if there is a bit of jealousy here, jealousy of your happy relationship with your man.

I woudl recommned some marriage preparation (http://www.2-in-2-1.co.uk/weddings/marlifeprep/), not because this problem has arisen, but because I believe it's helpful for any couple getting married however long they have known each other or been living together. Something like Prepare (http://www.2-in-2-1.co.uk/weddings/marlifeprep/preres/prepinc/) or Foccus (http://www.2-in-2-1.co.uk/weddings/marlifeprep/preres/foccus/) wold be ideal. There's nothing like a bit or nurturing of your own relationship to banish the doubts and accusations that have been raised and to remind you why you love each other so much.
