To be angry with disrespectful women!

247 replies

I'm talking about the women that know a guy is in a relationship yet continue to hit on him or upon hearing he has a girlfriend out right says 'I'm only up for a shag anyway, am I wasting my time?' Handing yourself on a plate like that to someone with a girlfriend and child is just low.

I obviously can't speak for all women but i wouldn't dream of hitting on somebody if they was in a relationship. I find it so disrespectful!

This happens quite a lot with my partner and it really angers me.

AIBU to let this bother me as much as it does? The woman I mentioned above might of got a peice of my mind..

well this women sounds like she has no understanding of boundaries, hr could have dealt with this, he is not yours to fight over

but what about all the other women that pester your dp

can not help but think he is enjoying this how can you not see that

Sorry, not tongue in cheek. Serious. I am mad at him but just agreeing with the "disrespectful women" remark. The OW in my case had no problem coming into my home and sleeping with a married man in the marital bed, which I find very disrespectful.

Well this thread has cheered me right up.

You haven't told us where you live?

He must some hot toddy. I'd like to meet him.

I'll admit I've been taken up the marmite aisle once or twice in Tescos

But at least it was by my own husband.

EmmanuelWoganberry · 02/05/2014 16:31

Oh come on, surely we all fling ourselves at men while doing the weekly shop? Sidling up to a man in the meat aisle and waggling a chorizo at him with a wink, standard practice isn’t it?

I have to admit that my DH is often approached by total strangers in supermarkets. Last time we went shopping together, an elderly woman was positively fawning over him.

Although thinking about it, that's probably because he's 6' 5" and good at reaching things on high shelves.

At least I hope it is. Maybe I should be worried? No long will he be allowed to go to Lidl alone.

softlysoftly · 02/05/2014 16:33

OK OK hands up I'm sorry.

Its just I was shopping for a loaf and some jaffacakes and I saw him, and just couldn't resist, it was the mantan and wife beater vest that did it.

I know its wrong but I really didn't think offering a quick bunk up down the biscuit aisle could hurt.

He did say no and I got so flustered I ended up taking home fig rolls instead so at least Karma had its way.

:(

I pinched a mans arse next to the plums only this morning in Asda.

i'm not for one minute suggesting that every time either of us leaves the house we get hit on or whatever. I'm using examples spread across quite some time.

My DH gets chatted up loads. I don't mind....he'd never take them up on it!

YouTheCat · 02/05/2014 16:35

Well his arse would be next to his plums wouldn't it? Grin

Tell us more about the H Samuel incident OP.

I think that could be comedy gold

No pun intended.

If I were you OP, I'd make your DP order his Tesco shopping online...and just make sure you sign for the order.

Just in case the delivery driver manhandles his black pudding.

A random woman asked DH could she stroke his hair when he was outside a cafe in America having a cigarette. He was that startled, he just nodded dumbly and let her stroke his silver foxy mane Grin. I still take the piss and tell others the story and it sounds like he made the nice, friendly mad woman happy for a few moments. They tell him, "you don't have to pay for that" when he orders a coffee over there in Starbucks too.

beershuffle · 02/05/2014 16:39

If you totally trusted him, these women wouldnt bother you so much. And whats with the overuse of the word disrespectful? Why do you think other women should respect you?

WorraLiberty · 02/05/2014 16:39

Tell us more about the H Samuel incident OP

Yes, did the shop assistant ask to measure the size of his ring?

If so, he could possibly have misunderstood...

BumpAndGrind · 02/05/2014 16:40

'Slide finger under flap to open' Grin

Alternatively flirt like the OP's DH.
