Many years ago, after I first met my husband he went holiday to Ibiza with a group of friends. One of the pics taken at that time was with his female hometown friend and he was standing with her puting his hand on her waist. Is this anything strange?

Just wanted to know if this is acceptable as a common sense.

He had his hand on her waist?!

What wouldn't be alright about that?!

Yes I think it's acceptable for a man to put his arm around the waist of a woman other than his wife. Is that what you're asking? Not sure I understand the issue?

seems like someone is looking for evidence of wrong doings, either to get attention or to split, is your relationship really that bad you have to look at pictures from years ago

It could be totally innocent or it could mean he was involved with her on some level other than simply being friends.

Wecan't tell and neither can you from a photograph. Are you worried?

They're all huddled on for the photo, surely. Not that it would be strange anyway?

Every time someone takes a photo of me and someone I put my arm around them whether its a family member or friend. Perfectly normal imo.

It would depend on pose, context, position all sorts of things. On its own is it an issue NO. But I suspect there is more here than this question alone

This is what people do when posing for photos with friends.

Oh and there are countless photos of me with other men with an arm around me (other than my husband) None of whom have I had, or have I wanted to have, any kind of sexual contact with.

No.

I asked him if he has ever been a bf of her or dated her and he said no.

OP...are you from a culture where men are not allowed to touch anyone other than their wives or close female relatives ?

You're overthinking this, which makes me wonder if there is actually a back story of you having assorted suspicions and this is the one tangible thing you can actually hang your suspicions on? What else is on your mind?
