Husband's Colleague- Leg Pic.

532 replies

PeaceGoodMercutio · 04/09/2023 08:51

DH 38 was sent a holiday picture of very posed "sausage leg" type picture from female work colleague (late 50s). Right up to the bikini line. His response was "A bit jealous, but wait til I get to my room".
I think this reads a certain way.
What do you think?
For context, we were on holiday too in a very nice hotel that he had been bragging about to her in previous messages. He says he was just going to show her pics of our room.
He never did. Messages stop there.
My mum says it isn't suspicious and believes him as apparently pictures like this are common amongst her 50 year old friends.
My friend says it is suspicious as feck.

Aibu:
Yes- innocent messages.
No--suspicious messages.

shes in her 50's her sex drive is probably non existent

Sadly, this is 100% true. It is a scientific fact that at 49 3/4 the vajayjay snaps shut and the clitoris drops off.

NGL, I was a little sad when it happened to me. I had to do a ceremonial burning of all my sex toys, in a forest clearing at midnight under a full moon. I was skyclad and ululated fervently at the memory of all that I had lost. All the wolves of the forest howled along with me (this is the woodland version of "and then everyone clapped").

@LuciaPillson I'm loving your work on this thread Grin

When I reached my 50s my sex drive went into an upward spiral.

OP, the crying and the threats don't sound good to me.

Their poor work colleagues, with all this going on. Whatever will they think?

They may love the drama. It brightens up the day and gives people something to gossip about.

I keep waiting for the "drying up" thing people talk about and it hasn't happened yet.

TheWayoftheLeaf · 04/09/2023 21:05

The picture isn't that bad as it's what people post on Insta.

His response is vile as he means he's going for a wank.

Which means the relationship is inappropriate if not an affair.

Willmafrockfit · 04/09/2023 21:25

i didnt think it was wank
perhaps he was going to the bedroom to send a picture of his sausage legs

perhaps this is the colleagues last hurrah

TheOccasionalFag · 04/09/2023 22:16

Jesus fucking Christ.

This whole scenario is gut churningly cringeworthy.

If said colleague wanted to showcase where she was staying - just take a photo of the pool/beach.
Or even just a smiley selfie. Totally normal.

This smacks of attention seeking bollocks which is embarrassing for anyone over the age of 30, especially sending to a non partner or not a close friend.

Let's just go back 20 years... Would it be appropriate for her to go out of her way to share this photo with someone else's husband once snappy snaps had sent it back?

Not really.

Indoorcatmum · 04/09/2023 22:24

You did the right thing.
So many women post here and pussy foot around, not actually doing anything.

You've been amazing and told this woman's partner so he is informed. Now you need to decide what you want to do.

He is 1000% at the very least, having a flirty/emotional affair. Who knows if it is physical.

Either way, he is disrespecting you.

MsDogLady · 04/09/2023 22:37

@PeaceGoodMercutio, something illicit is going on between your H and OW, his employee. He is riding roughshod over your boundaries once again.

It sounds like the only ‘scenery’ pictured in the photo was of her legs and bikini crotch. Likewise, his remark was full of innuendo. He’s had mentionitis about her, and their messaging appears to have deletions. His immediate reaction to your concern was to be defensive and to sick OW on you. Now he’s crying and threatening to jump if you don’t back down and get back in your lane.

He’s attempting to manipulate you, just as he did when he previously betrayed you. Kudos for refusing to take his guff.

BustyLaRoux · 04/09/2023 22:42

Please can we stop discussing whether or not a 50 year old woman’s sausage legs may or may not be attractive?! It’s not the point. Let’s stop the focus on women judging whether or not other women are attractive. It’s not the 90s any more. It’s not the point. She felt they were attractive obviously and she sent a picture to her boss. This is odd behaviour. Her attractiveness isn’t for us to discuss. Her behaviour is what we are discussing. And his. All the noise about whether women can have nice legs in their 50s is mysogenistic rubbish!

I agree

Louise303 · 04/09/2023 23:03

It would be different if she sent a pic of the scenery then he could say he was jealous. I wonder what he was jealous about if he could only see her legs was it that she was there with her hubby and not him? Would he be okay with you sending a pic like this to another man? It could just be banter but it sounds odd especially him saying wait till I get to the room.

fuckssaaaaake · 04/09/2023 23:28

I think he's actually saying please don't send me pics until I get to my room (in case you catch him)

But then he'll let OP use his phone for days after with this picture still on it?

WiddlinDiddlin · 05/09/2023 02:58

I think he's sufficiently cocky to think that the sausage legs shot is fine and his comment can be explained, so only deleted the comments/images that were unquestionably not fine.

And, in isolation, the sausage legs shot is fine... its the extra detail (for example, she has NOT shared that image on social media... the lack of him sharing pics of the apartment/location...) that tips it over the edge, but blokes often miss such subtleties!
