I think that sharing the same workplace as DH is ruining our relationship. We met at work, I was new whilst he had worked there for years and I felt that, as a result, colleagues never really warmed to me. It was as if I'd taken him away from the friendship group.
4 years on, married, baby and it's still the same. He's golden balls and I'm battling to get people to have a conversation with me. I've become extremely resentful and cant stand seeing him at work chatting away merrily, doing very little work in comparison to me who is trying really hard to show I'm hard working and worthy.
During an event this week, DH was asked to give the names of colleagues who had contributed to a successful project. I was one of these people, however he failed to mention my name. I asked why and he claimed to feel 'embarrassed' to be singing my praises to the boss purely because we're married. I was livid. All other colleagues got congratulated apart from me!
I find it difficult that 2 female colleagues were interested in DH romantically before I arrived. These were older, married women and he still works with them closely, I get really jealous when I see them all getting on so well when I'm so bloody lonely in my own office with few friends and few allies.
I've gotten quite nasty with him at home lately and just feel so annoyed and resentful. No idea whether I need to get a grip or a new job....
