Hi lamf10 & welcome. smile

All you need to do is ignore the people who are making these wild assumptions and even wilder accusations.

You know that your relationship with this friend is innocent friendship.

I assume that she knows it, too, and that both partners know all about it.

Provided everything is truthful & in the open, between the four parties involved ~ the ones who count ~ and that you all know the truth, and trust each other, then it is nobody's business but yours.

There is no need for this to be a mess, if you simply ignore those people who are not involved.

I suppose, if they are parents, perhaps, then you might be understandably upset. Are they?
If so, just try to explain to them that you are not a cheat and that you would appreciate their support in this.

Good luck!
