A woman shouldn't consult too many friends. Sometimes your friends can be your worst enemy. I've heard similar stories from guys though, like how their wife's best friend encouraged them to get a divorce,etc.
Been there, done that.
Fortunately, since remarried to a great woman.
New wife wanted to see Dr. Phil a few years ago. I got tickets for it and was ready for an evening of male bashing. He bashed the women much more than the men. He brought up the restroom thing. Called them "Crazy Meetings".
