    A lot of men and women have a problem with jealousy/insecurity--sometimes even those of us who aren't generally prone to those problems. The "appearance of impropriety" is to be avoided. Your running dude probably didn't tell his girlfriend because he knew she wouldn't handle it well. My husband committed a "sin of omission" while we were dating that upset me and resulted in a confrontation. Since then, we've both been careful to keep communication open when it comes to any personal relationships with the opposite sex.

    Aside from that, you'd probably do well to find a female running partner.

    All I know is that my darling only gets rats on special occasions. Otherwise, it's all insects.

    it irritates me that you call your bf/husband "my darling"........just saying.

    She keeps him locked in her basement, feeding on rats and insects

    wow.. mean to others much?? Look we found the new MFP mean girls..oh excuse me they are practically perfect in every way so they can afford to criticize and offer no help at all... wait ..what you are telling me they are NOT perfect? :noway:

    How did I not offer any help? Did you read my first response?
    Where did I say I was perfect? Was it by implying that I don't keep a man locked in my basement feeding on insects?

    Excuse me if you are perfect then you can make such silly statements that because she calls him her darling (which is a term of endearment last time I checked) she was keeping him locked in the basement..hummm sounds kinda mean and judgey to me...

    Why exchange numbers at all, unless you planned on meeting places other than the gym? Why not just set up the next running meet, before you left the gym? AHH, what if you're not the running partner, but actually the snoopy girlfriend, since you never said, how you know that she was snooping through his phone.

    She only does that because, "My Precious" was already taken.

    So, I get a bunch of crap from you for telling someone it's weird to call their boyfriend their "husband", but you get to make fun of someone for calling their boyfriend/husband "my Darling"?

    Seems legit.

    Outside of work, I don't do anything with guys who are involved in long term relationships or married. Sounds extreme, but it is just simpler that way. I once had a woman tell a guy friend to stop talking to me altogether, regardless of the fact that I had known him for many years prior to their ever meeting. She was that jealous. And I can't say I couldn't understand her point of view in some ways.

    Maybe you could find a new running partner. Perhaps one of the canine variety...

    This is not a good situation. Perhaps there is truth in someone else's response that you would not most likely exchange numbers with this guy unless there was some attraction..whether it is sexual or not. That you are sitting there pondering about this situation at all suggests that you have already become more involved with his life than you should be with a simple "running partner." But aside from all that, the kindest thing you could do right now is tell him that you don't think it's a good idea for you two to be partners and then go find someone else to be gym buddies with. Perhaps a fellow woman, or perhaps an older guy for whom you feel NO attraction---that would truly be safe. My hunch is that you may be enjoying the excitement of being "the other woman," and taking something that belongs to someone else because you think it makes you somehow superior to this girlfriend; even if you never plan on sealing the deal
    Be a friend to this woman, leave her man alone; whether or not she's jealous is irrelevant--you are causing her pain. Why do you want to do that? Find a better partner in the gym. What about your darling? why won't he work out with you?
