What is wrong with some women!

[Alltheshoes74]

Went out for a few cocktails with my husband Saturday evening, we were sat at the bar having a lovely time. I went to the loo and got chatting to some girls in there. Later in the evening they passed us and said hi and stopped for a chat. One was local and one was not - the local girl was mid 30's, single mum. We are older - she could be my husbands daughter! I didn't notice anything odd then as we left it turns out she asked my husband for his number!! What on earth! I mean his ego is now bursting out but we were amazed at the absolute brazenness of it all. Am still horrified that someone would do that - even when i was young and single I'd never dream of doing that.

I find it more odd that you only go out together? Do you each not have friends?

Of is it because most women want to bed him on impact?!

My DH and I have our own friends and on occasion go out separately. But we both would rather spend our precious "fun money" and spare time on something we want to do together, or as a family (small DC). I don't think it's that unusual to want to spend time with your spouse?

I’ve known of women who do this. Or say they do it. Never really known it happen in front of the wife. Unless the woman proposing it wants her features rearranged.

I think this woman would have. She was blatant about trying it on with any "attractive" man at any work event. No shame.

My husband stayed behind me whenever she was around, because she scares him slightly! Very aggressive in the way she approaches men.

My old flat mate in her twenties used to sleep with married colleagues for a laugh. The wives would ring up yelling and she would laugh. There aren’t many women like this but they do exist! We didn’t stay in touch!

He wants to put his massive tool in her box!

Ahahah fuck I woke children lauging about this.

Maybe husban should use "gentle hands" whild he is "being kind"?

Wow, that’s quite a story! I suppose it’s not every day that you encounter such forwardness, especially in a social setting where respect for personal boundaries is expected. I think it’s natural to feel a bit taken aback by such an unexpected request. It’s a reminder that social norms can vary widely, and what might be considered too bold for some may be just another way of making connections for others.

In my experience, the best way to handle these kinds of situations is with a sense of humor and a bit of grace. It’s okay to be surprised, but it’s also okay to laugh it off and appreciate the lighter side of life’s unexpected moments. After all, it’s these little stories that make for interesting conversations later on!

Please don't think I'm crazy. If I were you, I'd lose my temper and pull that bitch's hair out. It's just that right now I'm thinking about this situation sensibly without any aggression. Thank God you didn't behave like me :)

I can vouch that there are indeed women like this. One time we were out when I was pregnant, we stopped in DH's fav bar for a drink. I left DH for the toilet and came back to find him chatting to a woman. Didn't think anything of it and sat back down to join their conversation when it became clear she only had eyes for him, touched his chest at one point. DH had minimal experience with any woman aggressively flirting with him and had no idea what to do. He ended up abandoning his pint.

I don't know if was guts or desperation but I was shocked by how forward she was.

She’s a sad slapper who has gone after an older man who probably seemed to be a good catch. She got blown off. She’s probably at home feeling very sorry for herself.

Don’t be mad, feel sorry for her.

Of course it happens. So strange that some don’t believe you, WTH. 🤷‍♀️

I'm surprised that people don't believe this scenario.
Twice, in an admittedly long marriage, women have approached my DH with their contact details. In each situation we were in part of a larger group so maybe eye contact was made and attraction occurred before they knew DH was married (and accompanied by me!)As soon as they sashayed over asking for his phone to put their details in, DH said words to the effect "I'm flattered but I'm happily married to this lady" I was briefly looked up and down but it didn't immediately make them scuttle away.
In both cases I suspect drink had been consumed and in their defence, my DH has the most amazing eyes.

I don't see many women in their 30s asking men in their 60s for their phone number. Even less so when they're clearly out on a date with their wife.

Husband must be giving off rich vibes or she's had a bet with her friend, because no one gets THAT drunk.

😂

Women are always flirting with my boyfriend when we're together. I know that sounds like a boast but I fucking hate it. Even when we were pushing a pram around once this girl turned around and was brazenly smiling and giving him the eye. Sisterhood - yeah whatever.

Not sure why the OP would brag about this as it could suggest her DH was being flirtatious or like they’re not happily married. Not saying this was the case btw OP but I’m surprised by posters saying I’m you’re stealthily bragging.

I’ve had something similar not long after having a baby and very sleep deprived. I objectively looked like shit and my husband doesn’t need makeup to look ok. It also shocked me and upset me a little too as I wondered if she thought “what’s he doing with her?” Agree that the sisterhood is a load of shit for many women.

This happens to my BIL - only with Gay men. He & my sister laugh about it.

Do you think she did it to compete with you in a weird way? I know that sounds strange, but when an attractive woman is with a guy that can make the guy more desirable in the eyes of some women (like this one). Almost like trying to prove she's better than you. I wondered if you were also thinking that from your "I'd be cricified" comment (you probably would if you said it was because she was jealous of you but that doesn't make it not true)

What happens? OP refuses to tell us.

Women sometimes come on to married men. Absolutely true.

But all we have here is someone asking for a phone number after enjoying a social evening. Dunno if it was a come on or not because despite bringing it to Mumsnet, OP doesn't want to share specifics. 🙍

She might be looking for new business for her “service” industry . She’s not picky, any man ok as long as they pay.

You don't know OP's husband and making such confident assumptions about him. This thread has taken misandry to another level.

Also, he can be both horrified and flattered at different times. First his reaction was of being horrified that a woman who met his wife first has suddenly asked for his number and later felt that he still has got that appeal.

She explained that in the moment she was talking the other lady. There is not more to analyse. Her husband told her what happened and knowing her husband she believes him.

I agree some people can be very forward.

These days could be a woman trying her luck and failing (and all that comes from it is a laugh and an ego boost), or something much more deliberate such as the start of a scam. Maybe she picked you and your husband as the target.
