Jen already did discuss it w/the hubby.
He gave her his opinion.
She's still having doubts his opinion is valid.
She went out and gave the gal a chick-hug...setting up a question in the other gal's mind. (That's almost a chick-signal for "Watch your back, sister!")
Now, how does she "gracefully" get out of this?
I'd rather play with a
running lawn-mower.
MO is that she should bow out of this situation - FAST!
If there's a social setting that they have to attend...she's home sick w/the plague or is terminally ill...she needs to be away from those three players when they're together.
As for the hubby? He might as well take his working relationship with the "cheater" (assuming that that is what he's doing) and hoping that the idiot ("cheater") isn't his boss or future-supervisor, shelve their time together until this episode passes...he's the other "innocent" in this scenario and she dragged him into it by the "chick-hug" thing.
Sometimes the best advice/condolences is none at all. But now, that line has been crossed...better to get away from the situation before more victims get hit by "friendly fire" here...because
UGLY is just over the horizon and nobody knows how big it is or for how long it will be around...
