Men look at women daily so why is it " so wrong" to look at a nanny that way?

+1 It's a natural response for how men are wired. The question is what he does after that reaction, and we hope he wouldn't act on his base impulses.

He is her potential employer. She can't tell him to knock it off, because she wants the job or is interested in keeping the job.

If she were walking down the street, it would be fine. In an employer situation, you need to keep your libido in check.

I am conflicted because I don't think its fair to pass up this nanny. She would be an amazing fit in every way.

My husband has never cheated and I doubt he would. I don't care about him looking at an attractive woman on the street as I do so with attractive men. I'm more concerned about him checking out a woman who will be in my home daily and the fact he checked her out as if I wasn't in front of him.

You are conflicted or you get some sort of odd thrill w/this scenario.

Again, I think a troll poster

This is a troll post. They tried something very similar in the nanny for him, but didn't get the response they were hoping for. Everyone please ignore.

I guess trolls don't take Sundays off. Idle hands are kept busy 24/7.

not necessarily, but your husband sounds like a twit if he is that obvious...

and not to mention, I am sure the nanny candidate doesn't appreciate some old man /an employer checking her out....

I'm OP and believe what you want but I'm not a troll. This situation is currently happening in my life and I came here to find an understanding or a solution. I did not post in any nanny thing however, I posted in the explicit forum.

You already view it as a red flag and so does your sister. If you still want to hire her, then buyer beware.

I admit I have not invited women in who are too sexy on sittercity. I don't think I was necessarily afraid DH would cheat but the profile pictures looked like some of the girls were looking for a date and not a job. Why add the extra stress if you don't have to?

Well I didn't pick or talk to any of the candidates before the interviews. DH handled it all, he chose the women who he thought would be a good fit for us.

We interviewed a woman to be a babysitter and she was a former model who described herself (during the in person interview) as a nudist. DH was ALL excited about hiring her, but we were able to joke about it and no way in HELL were we going to hire her. I trust DH but I'm also not interested in inviting trouble. If we hired a James Franco look-alike to be a manny, DH would be concerned, so it works both ways.

However, I'm not so sure you have thag level of openness. ..so maybe in your relationship its an issue for concern.

Regardless, I would have instantly called DH out the second the door closed on the nanny. Not sure why you didn't.

If you don't trust your DH you have much more to worry about than the nanny. The nanny probably would not want his old ass, bit the women at work might be another case.

Ew.
