Default What to do about her Friend?

If there is anything that can be done.

My wife(as you know we are not on the best terms right now)
has a few friends that I don't like. I don't think they are healthy friends and I think they are feeding things into my wifes head.

Friend "W" wrote me an email when she found out that I cheated on my wife and told me to Kill myself. Said that my wife would be better off if I would blow my F*** head off. Also friend "W' promotes contact with the guy my wife is having the EA with. Friend "W" also used to Grab my ass and Crotch when ever she would pass/come around me.

Recently I tried to apologize to friend "W" for comments I made to her in the past. She replied saying that she was glad my marriage is failing. She said that it is pathetic. She also said that she is/will do whatever in her power to make sure it doesn't succeed. She mentioned some rumors about things that never went on, and mentioned telling my wife.

At this point with the lack of trust my wife has in me I feel that her telling my wife that will end things permanently. It will also cause problems in my wifes family.

What good does this friend think she is doing by promoting unfounded rumors...She is acting like a High Schooler.

So should I mention all this to my wife in detail. As of now I have simply told her that I don't think certain friends of hers are healthy. I said that one particular one is doing everything she can to ruin our marriage. I told her that if she does hear rumors and has questions she can come to me or anyone in my crew and we will answer her questions for her.

Some people like to live like they are in a soap opera, and even at the point that it ruins other peoples lives. You can not make the choice of who your wife is friends with. The best thing you can do is lead a good life from here on out.

Unfortunately, you can't tell your wife who she should or shouldn't be friends with. Does your wife know about the extremely inappropriate e-mail her friend sent you? She doesn't sound like a true friend to your wife and that is something that she is going to have to decide in her own time. I would advise keeping the e-mails she has sent. I think you have done all you can at this point.

Yeah my wife went out with her the other night...I'm pretty sure she knows about the emails. I Have mentioned them to her and told her that she is welcome to read them..

Friend "W" is one of my wifes better friends around here, so when I have mentioned that her friends might not be the healthiest it just upsets her. I just hate this situation...its really draining me.
