My friend had a house party last night for her birthday. She has a large kitchen so most of us were in there when a random woman asked my husband to zip her dress up as it was coming down at the back.

She was with friends and has never met my husband (or me) ever before.

Aibu to have been annoyed?

Just a bit of drunken flirting. I'd dismiss it as nowt be honest.

Be thankful she didn't ask him to unzip it

RufusTheReindeer · 17/05/2015 21:43

I would be slightly more perturbed if she asked him to unzip it

Was he the closest to her something?

I actually laughed, sorry.

YABU OP.

What the heck were you annoyed about?

WorraLiberty · 17/05/2015 21:47

Maybe he unzipped it earlier? Grin

Annoyed? What did you think she'd do next? Shag him over the kitchen table or something?

Do you always try to keep your husband on a tight leash or is that reserved only for parties?

MrsTedCrilly · 17/05/2015 21:48

Nah wouldn't be bothered.. If a woman wants to flirt with my partner then that's her perogative Grin If he offered without her asking then that's his!

Maybe he unzipped it earlier? Grin

Because cheating is always hilarious Confused

Really?

Do you have trust issues?

I wouldn't bat an eyelid.

ChristianGreyIsAJackass · 17/05/2015 21:48

Was he the closest person to her?

If so, she needed another human to zip it up, i think you are hugely overthinking it in my opinion.

Salmotrutta · 17/05/2015 21:49

I'd imagine he just happened to be the person standing next to her at the time?

Hardly outrageous or anything...

WorraLiberty · 17/05/2015 21:50

Oh lighten up OP

Do you seriously think he might have unzipped it earlier?

If so, then I apologise.

justbloodygreat · 17/05/2015 21:50

I think I'd have to be pretty insecure in my relationship to be annoyed that a (presumably drunken) woman randomly asked my DH to help her with her dress. She probably just asked whoever was closest to her.

ilovesooty · 17/05/2015 21:50

I can't take this seriously. I wouldn't have given it a second thought.

stopeatingbiscuits · 17/05/2015 21:51

Ha. This would piss me off but I would probably consider I was being unreasonable and wouldn't say anything to anyone.

Quite random to ask a strange man to zip your dress up if you are standing with your friends...

Happybodybunny12 · 17/05/2015 21:51

Oh it's flirty though isn't it.

Salmotrutta · 17/05/2015 21:51

Was she displaying other outlandish behaviour OP?

Like talking to people?

WalterMittyish · 17/05/2015 21:52

It probably wouldn't bother me at all. Did she do it in a flirty way? Did he seem overly eager to get his mitts on her zip? Did she seem drunk/attention-seeky/generally a bit crap at judging social appropriateness?

Context is everything in a scenario such as this.

stopeatingbiscuits · 17/05/2015 21:52

I guess I mean I cannot imagine ever doing that myself in those circumstances!

TwinkieTwinkle · 17/05/2015 21:52

Errrrm.... YABU.

BlueBananas · 17/05/2015 21:53

There's a lot of drama llamas on AIBU tonight isn't there!
Her zip came loose, she asked a person close to her to fasten it - total non-event
Now if she'd asked him to unzip her, bend her over and shag her up the arsehole I'd say you had a bit of a point

Salmotrutta · 17/05/2015 21:53

Flirty?

Really?

Confused

She had a zip problem. She asked a person to fix it.
