I'm glad he's "seeing the light". I don't know what exactly he does for work, but probably he should have a meeting with his supervisors and/or personnel dept. and explain what is going on between himself and this "woman" (I use the term loosely because she's not a real woman) and see if she can be moved to another dept or see if he can be moved to another dept without loss of benefits or pay. He could consider this a hostile work environment. He could also claim sexual harrassment as well. That's the last thing any company wants on their books. Just a thought.

Just checking back in and glad it's going so well Alyce!
Why do husbands and wives let these people drive so much of a wedge? I think the person they target starts out just enjoying the attention... it's a boost of self confidence to hear that "you've sill got it" I guess.
I take the attitude that when I married I stopped being "a woman". I became "his woman" and I will never be anything other than that for any other guy.

I agree Jen. I always tell Ric that I don't have anything left for anybody else! And yes, I think that it's pure ego. I am glad he saw reality....

I also agree with Jen when she says that too much workplace bonding! My dh has two female asst. mgrs who compete with one another to make sure they are perceived as the better employee in dh's eyes-I honestly don't think it's romantic (I know that sounds weird)...it's kind of hard to describe, but both try and act like his "work wife" almost like kids competing to be "the favorite." Funny thing is that my dd also works with dh and SHE is the one who tells them that they are being crazy and to knock it off!
I'm not sure why people act as crazy as they do...seems like it would just be simpler to find a man of their own...or at least a hobby. Good luck Alyce, I hope things continue to calm down and "little Miss Crazy" crawls back under her rock. |

Glad I could be of help. I just don't like to see marriages fall apart. And if this will help strengthen it, then I'm glad.

Christine, that must be awful for you! Why do Some people always have to jump somebody else's claim?
I hope she crawls back under her rock and gets squished....

Lorena, thank you. So far, so good!
Ric is totally mortified by the situation, and he keeps going over it all trying to figure out what he did or said to make her think he was available and interested. I pointed out that it could well have been all in her head, given how oblivious he was to her feelings before. She saw, she wanted--she told herself she was going to get. Apparently in her world, if a man is casually friendly towards a woman it means he doesn't want the one he has. I don't think she likes the real world all that much....

I was down at the pool in our apartment complex with my hubby and our daughter. This woman started talking to him. I didn't really pay attention. I guess she was hitting on him. Really??? With someone's wife and daughter not 10 feet away? Some women really need to get a grip.
My hubby looks like Dusty from ZZ Top. So that usually brings lots of interest.

Amy, some women just don't get it. I am floored that she was hitting on him when you were Right There! I think the technical term is chutzpah!
So you married a ZZ Top lookalike eh? Cool! (Maybe she wanted his autograph?) Ric is often mistaken for Duran Duran's keyboard player Nick Rhodes, even though he is like a foot taller. Funny story: I met Nick Rhodes when I was in college, and HE was hitting on ME! I said no because I'm no groupie--and then end up with his lookalike. Go figure?
