How do you cope when your DH works with one (literally just one) person, and it’s a young, attractive woman that you hear him crossing the line with all the time?
We’ve talked 100 times about it but, of course, it always comes back to “It’s my job.” Feels like I just have to sit here and eat it. |

| Why is crossing the line part of his job? |

He views it as being “friendly” and “team building”. He’s like, “What? Do you want me to be cold?” |

Well then it depends on what your definition is of crossing the line. “How was your weekend? Oh that festival sounds awesome” is different than “You make me feel things I haven’t felt in a long time.” Which is it? |

I’m assuming because lots of people do hybrid or WFH now |

| Why are women always imagining things and or feeling threaten by another woman? Do they do it because they live off drama? |

I doubt OP is imagining this. Whether or not it is a problem is another issue, though. |

| I was a federal employee for years, and when we had the total WFH wave sweep through during COVID, I had so many colleagues (male and female) tell me that they had never realized how flirtatious their spouse was at work until they started teleworking at home together. Everyone’s interpersonal relationships were on full display, and it’s something we don’t often get to see. Many divorces. Whether or not the revelation that their spouses were crossing boundaries left and right contributed to this? Who knows. |

Your husband has no boundaries.. As you've discussed the issue with him...and he's still doing it -- and in your presence. He's for the streets. .. Sorry OP |

| Can you provide some examples? Are these questions you would ask your own friends of the same sex? Is it the tone he uses? |

For all we know her husband is simply talking to his coworker like he talks to all his coworkers and OP is just incredibly insecure. |

I’ll bet the OP is threatened because there is a marginally attractive woman in her husband‘s orbit that he has developed a professional rapport with, the OP has let herself go and is hyper insecure of what she’s become and remembers herself that age and the power she once wielded.
Laughing with someone isn’t flirting. Having a conversation where you clearly have common ground in the subject isn’t flirting. Having a series of inside jokes or vocabulary with a coworker isn’t flirting. Telling a coworker they really brighten the place up is probably flirting. Telling a coworker they secretly wish for the yellow dress to get in rotation is definitely flirting. Telling a coworker they did a good job on something and then suggesting they are probably good at lots of other things is definitely flirting. Double entendre’s are definitely flirting. So really, what did you hear? |
