Got a text from a girl in my work out the blue at the weekend which was completely innocent in nature. There is nothing going on between us, I have never found her attractive, she's nice to have a chat to in work time but never think of contacting her outside of work.
My problem is that I knew my partner wouldn't like me having another woman's number in my phone and when the text came through she was sitting next to me in the livingroom and saw the name. I must admit I was taken aback that she had contacted me over the weekend but also was a bit concerned as I knew my partner wouldn't be happy. I instantly put the phone away as opposed to doing what I thought and saying "wonder why she is texting me."
Since Saturday (when it happened) it has been a nightmare. Because of me acting suspicious it has aroused my partners suspicions and she is now convinced that there is something more to it, which there is not. I have tried to speak to her, re assure her but she said that she still isn't happy and has threatened to contact the girl from my work via social media.
I am happily married and have a lovely daughter, have no intention of cheating or being involed in sending messages to anyone that may be flirting and the girl in my office is in a LTR with a live in partner and I don't find her attractive.
It seems I am guilty and that's it, we have spoken for around 10-15 minutes over the past few days and it is obvious that things aren't right.
Because I have done nothing I can't deviate away from not knowing why i received the message, although I suspect it was a group text as it wasn't aimed particularly at me. I also can't deviate away from the fact nothing is in it, because there's not.
Can anyone offer any advice please? I am feeling quite emotional today as have all these things running through my mind that we are going to split up and that's not what I want as I only want her.
I'm a fairly simple character. We both have active social lives, I also work, go to the gym and go home to my family. Similar to her.
