Hey there, everyone. I'm dealing with a situation involving my husband and his so-called "work wife."
At first, it seemed harmless enough – they were close at work, partners in crime on projects, you know the deal. But gradually, things started to shift. What began as water cooler banter evolved into lunch dates, and he was even dropping her off at home since she didn't have a car.
I get it, being supportive and helping out, but there's this nagging feeling in my gut. I tried bringing it up with him, expressing how it made me uncomfortable, and you won't believe what he said – that I'm just being insecure. Can you believe that?
He insists it's all professional and that they're just buddies, but the late-night texts and the frequency of their hangouts make me wonder. I can't help but feel like there's a blurred line somewhere, and it's starting to mess with our relationship.
I'm not sure if I'm overreacting or if there's a genuine cause for concern. Has anyone else dealt with a similar "work spouse" situation? How did you handle it? I could really use some advice or just your thoughts on this whole mess.
I have never dealt with this situation, but personally, I would try to sit down with him and talk. If he gets extremely defensive/protective of the whole thing from the start, then I personally think something else would be going on. I would advise making seeking a couples therapist.
