[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I’d not be fine with this at all. Either the coworker will start to look good, the old “we were friends until” that is fine if two people are single, or the person starts to view their spouse as a nag because you do need to talk about household things and because spouses will ask things of you that nobody else will. “Hey, the towel bar fell off again, did you call the handyman” isn’t something a coworker will ever say to you. 
I trust my husband just fine, I’m also not going to be happy if he essentially went out on a date with another woman which is what “drinks with a female coworker” is. Plus, why would anybody want to mix work and alcohol and by work I mean the people you work with. Way too risky in 2023.

+1. I agree with this. Also, in terms of the alcohol thing, it’s one thing for a department/team/group to have drinks together at a holiday party etc. One on one drinks are inherently more intimate and it is a date like setting. [/quote]

Your spouse probably doesn’t tell you that they go out to lunch, dinner or drinks alone with women. How will you even know? My male coworkers msg me on weekends, on vacations, in the evenings and I bet their wives don’t know either. Just this week my one coworker was on vacation with his family and he sent me a picture of something he thought I would like that he saw at a store. I doubt his wife knows I even exist.
