      Is that a polite version of the CUK "Back in 5"?

            That's what I want to find out really.

            Today my first reaction was to feel that I was intruding so I removed myself quickly because I didn't want the friend to have to ask me to leave.

            But was I over-reacting and as a result offending the friend by letting her think that I did not want to be around while she was feeding the baby?

              What ever a man does is always wrong if there is a woman around.

              But if a man is in a forest and no woman is around to hear him is he still wrong? Mrs BP says yes.......

                She may have preferred that you weren't there, but didn't like to say. You chose the "leave" option which IMO can't fail because if she DID mind you being there, you weren't, but if she DIDN'T mind you being there, she'll understand that you erred on the side of caution.

                You did the right thing.

                She could have called after you "there's no need to leave i don't mind if you don't" but she didn't. QED.

                  That's what I thought too.

                  If she got all offended and couldn't stop to think that you may have left out of courtesy to her, she'd need to wind her neck in.

                  You did the right thing IMO, and you could have murmered "Bitty!" from outside too.

                      If it happens again you could always get your cock out and see how she feels. Just a thought.
                      I'm better than dirt. Well, most kinds of dirt, not that fancy store-bought dirt... I can't compete with that stuff.
