To think she’s trying to flirt with my partner?

[SydneyFrexkle]

So this morning my partner got a photo message from a female colleague of a mug that says “morning sexy ”. 😉😘

Dp said that she got this mug from her boyfriend and had put it on Instagram and they were making fun of/teasing her at work about it.

So she sent it as a joke to him. Aibu to think she’s flirting because it’s just not even funny

Get a grip.

Did the colleague send a winky face too? Hmm sounds strange

Yes for anyone who can’t see the emojis. She sent a photo of her mug which says “morning sex” and in the photo caption she put a winky and kiss emoji

I agree with you.

Yes definitely strange. If it was a funny joke would there not be a laughing emoji

Not appropriate! How would he feel if you had the same text???

Casually drop into the office, and crack the mug on her head

Wait does it say morning sexy or morning sex?

Not the best

Nah not appropriate, but I think this is a wait and see situation. Do you trust your partner?

See what happens, if it escalates and becomes more inappropriate I tell my partner that I'm now uncomfortable and he's to deal with it head on and put a stop to it or I will. He has his opportunity to sort it himself and knows if he doesn't I will then step in, but that rarely happens!

No chance that's innocent. Not at all.

I would never send that to someone I work with.
Very innapropriate

Was it to just him? Not a group message?

If just to him then I'd say they were shagging. Sorry op.

I'd really doubt it's just a joke. Doesn't make any sense.

If I were you partner, that would make me feel uncomfortable and awkward of any future interactions.

Do you think it was actually your DP that got her the mug, maybe as a secret Santa or something? That's the only reason I could think she would send the pic as a joke.

Otherwise I'm afraid I would only send that message if I was intending to shag or currently shagging the recipient. Wouldn't send it randomly to a male colleague in a million years

It's inappropriate for her to send it to him. How did he react? Did he show you the message and explain it? Or did he try to hide it.

He can't help being sent an overly flirty message, he can control how he responds.

I smell something fishy. I think your DP is making an excuse, One that doesn't make sense.
Have you had any other reason to think he has been playing away.

Yes as pp asked. Did you see it accidentally or did he show you.

Yeah she's flirting. Seems odd.
