Inappropriate or am I over reacting?

[strongstrongtea]

My partner of 2 years is very
Close with his colleagues. They're more like friends that work together ... male and female.
He sent a video to them and to me and other friends , of him in hospital. He was just bored.
I noticed at the end of the generic message to all of us that he had added an 'x' after. Hello.
This video was sent individually to each of us .
AIBU to think that adding an'x' after a general hello is inappropriate to send to female colleagues/ friends ?

I hate 'x' on the end of text messages to all and sundry. All this faux-gushiness of modern life drives me nuts. yang

yanbu not 'yang'

Massive overreaction!

He specifically added an X for one person?

No . The 'x 'was to all of us I think

My male boss puts kisses at the end of emails - it really really wouldn’t upset me. Overreaction.

HUGE over reaction. Massive over reaction. I'm surprised you even noticed it. Is there something else making you suspicious?

Good god. Second thread this morning where the OP is overreacting majorly. Must be something in the air

Even more of an over reaction then.

I think you're over reacting to just one x. Maybe you're feeling a little fragile as your P is in hospital, be kind to yourself

No I don't think it's inappropriate and wouldn't give it even a moment's thought.

And why is it just the female colleagues you think its inappropriate towards?! Sexist much?

Massive over reaction.

Massive overreaction

Thanks.
I see that it is. I do feel delicate and upset. I have a good idea of his diagnosis but he doesn't really get the seriousness of it so I feel like I'm carrying it, if that makes sense.

Massively overreacting, I think for some people the X is automatic. Why is it only inappropriate to send one to females btw?

Because he is in a relationship with me and it suggests a kiss doesn't it

It's just a sign off. He might have not even realised he'd done it.

I often have to stop myself doing things like that as I'm so used to doing it with family members.

My Landlord's agent once sent me a message about some work that needed doing on the house he manages for me and put an x on the end of the message.

He just did it automatically I imagine.

We have a good working relationship and will often have a long chat and a laugh when we talk on the phone. I'm in my 70s and he's in his 40s and I'm damn sure he doesn't have any romantic inclinations towards me, nor me towards him, come to that.

For goodness sake, what age are you, 12?

My male cleaner puts kisses in the end of his texts to me, I don’t think it means he wants to kiss me, just an automatic end to texts for lots of people!

Huge overreaction.

Get a bloody grip. Of course it’s not inappropriate.

A male colleague once accidentally ended a call with me 'love you, bye'. Pupils call me 'mum' every now and then.

Either that sort of brain fart, or he ends all his messages with an x.

Would not assume he wants to kiss everyone in the group!

No offence but you need to get some real problems

I have male friends in relationships that I would send an x to and vice versa. This is such a minor issue, especially if he's ill. Concentrate on that!
