I know I've wanted to tell off his friends more than a few times, but I never in a million years would do something like this. Mike would be so pissed and embarassed.
DH would be embarrassed and angry that I was so rude to his friend. If I have a problem, I need to talk to DH about it, and he needs to decide what to say to his friend. Going over DH's head is sooo not okay.
OMG my DH would be so incredibly pissed at me. I'm not his mom, I'm not his keeper. He can speak up for himself. And really...I don't see the big deal in him running an errand.
Yikes. I've never had this issue with DH because he doesn't believe in "friends," but I have definitely had this problem with exes. I certainly would not have done something like that, even if the friend was mutual. It seems completely disrespectful of the SO, like he's a child or something.
I think she needs to take that issue up with her DH. Obviously he doesn't have a problem running errands. It sounds like he may be trying to skip out a little himself...
My DH would be upset and 100% right about it. I married a man that could speak for himself, I don't need to do it for him. Especially in a situation that has nothing to do with me. I'd be mortified if I was her, even more so if I was her husband!
I've done something similar, but it was because dh lacked the balls. We were actually dating at the time, and his friend was his housemate. His friend is also his cousin, but he use to pull all kinds of crap to get DH to hang out with him over me. An example, he told DH that one of their friends (family friend who is 5-6 years younger and in HS) knocked up his girlfriend and was kicked out of his house, so DH (FI at the time) needed to come home and talk about him moving in. It was all a lie! Hell yeah I told him off!
ETA: I also think it depends on the DH and friend's personality. DH is really a really nice quiet guy, and he is easily walked all over. His cousin walked over him all the time.
I would try to put myself in his shoes - if I carpooled with my work girls, and DH sent one of them a text like that. I would be mortified that my SO came off as such a rude person.
She demands him to be home like NOW! *stomps feet* no time for doing anything else!!!!!!!

I wouldn't do it. But it sounds like her DH doesn't have the balls to do it himself, what the other guy does annoys her DH too, and said okay to her sending that text?

Re: Would your DH be pissed?
That would be NOT okay in our house.
Wow.
Matt would not be happy that's for sure, it's not my place to say something. If her H didn't want to run errands he could have said so.
Wow, what a biitch.

How embarassing for her poor DH.
