charlie68 Posted 23 hours ago Posted 23 hours ago Yesterday I saw that my husband (DH) received a what appears to be obviously an accidental email from a former, younger female employee. The email was addressed to a group, staring 'hi all,' and from what I could see, was all about writing content for a website. Nothing to do with what DH does. DH just left the email, didn't reply, and went back to his inbox. He never mentioned it to me, but why would he? A silly accidental email is no piece of news really... This employee left the company after an internship with my DH's business last summer. As a bit of background, most of DH's work was from home, so he didn't see this woman in person all that often. When DH was in the office, I used to suspect he was a bit too chatty and familiar with this young woman, although he never contacted her inappropriately outside of work. I met her several times when I went with DH to the office, and DH always seemed smily and enthralled with her and what she was saying. He used to stare at her like a creep and then grin like a Cheshire cat, or sometimes tell ridiculous stories or jokes to make her laugh. I had words with him about this, especially the staring, which I said could be interpreted as creepy, and he did later tone this down. I wonder whether this girl 'accidentally on purpose' sent this email, in an attempt to strike up a conversation with DH? If so, would it be worth me telling DH to block her? I did used to wonder whether she liked the attention he gave her before I had words with him (she seems like the kind of young woman who would like attention, always dressed immaculately and hair styled etc). I could of course just be overthinking this. Quote
Gebidozo Posted 17 hours ago Posted 17 hours ago The young woman did nothing inappropriate so far. It was your husband who kept grinning, staring at her, and telling too many jokes. If there is a problem here, it’s with your husband, not with her. Blocking her would only make sense if she were constantly sending him suggestive messages. If you think your husband might be sexually attracted to her, blocking won’t solve anything. Quote
