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.

Right. So this hyprocrit thought it fine to employ the young and beautiful for the viewing pleasure of wealthy diners, but decided to take the moral high ground when one of the ornaments went rogue in front of his wife?

Honestly I agree with the pp, Women can do no wrong on here. Men bad. I'm pretty sure people used to take the op at face value, not immediately try and discount, It's bloody dull.

I’ve known two women who played this game in my life. They got their kicks out of knowing they could have someone else’s man. I don’t associate with them now, obviously!

They (the ones I knew) would have gone straight to you with the proof of cheating, just to cause a scene and show how irresistible they were.

Like PP said, very low self esteem.

Well actually although OP has been a bit more forthcoming in her later posts it was very unclear at first what the actual scenario was. If indeed the woman whispered to him " slyly" as she said in one post then yes I agree her intentions weren't good. However she later says she couldn't hear because of the music. That's a totally different thing.
I'm not getting at OP. I just felt she was asking for an opinion without really giving us the chance to evaluate exactly what happened.

Do you think it would have been less dull if all the responses just said 'how awful'?

I think YNBU but I think I’d find it funny and a bit flattering that my husband is that attractive! It’s all in how you take it, see it as a funny thing that happened.

Sure, that'll be it 🙄

Clearly he did think it fine @5128gap. The restaurant manger apparently said that it’s not the sort of behaviour their clientele expect

Right, the facts:

OP asked if she was being unreasonable in her reaction to something her husband told her that a woman said to him.

Without even being told exactly what that was, I can't say if her reaction is reasonable.

I certainly aren't claiming all men are bad or that all women can do no wrong. I also am not disbelieving OP's account. But so far as I can see with the detail given, honest and innocent misunderstandings by any of the protagonists cannot be discounted. At all.

Assuming this isn't a stealth brag, just shrug it off and have a laugh about it with your husband?

My husband had a woman recently approach him while he was out at a pub with his mate. He wears a wedding ring, and was waiting at the bar beside a maybe 10 years younger woman and had made polite convo with her while waiting along the lines of "Are you next in line? Is it me next, don't want to push in and be rude!!" Just friendly chitchat.

She ordered a drink and then was absolutely LIVID when my husband wouldn't buy it for her! Kept nudging the bartender to bill my husband lol. She later cornered him in the pub with her mates who verbally abused him saying things like, Why didn't you buy our friend the drink, is it because she's fat, do you think she's ugly, you're such a fat phobic asshole I can't believe some men, no one would want to date you either you're ugly etc. Just bizarre honestly

I’ve had a handsome fiance who women did try it on with when we were together, despite me being next to him and flashing my ring at them.

This sounds like some weird animal courtship thing that I can imagine David Attenborough narrating. Maybe some species of monkey/primate?

"The female of the courting couple bends over and flashes her ring at the competing female to ward her off..."

😳

OP asked what's wrong with 'some women'. In this woman's case the possibilities are:
She was overcome with desire for OPs husband and has no moral qualms about his marriage.
She was overcome with jealousy of the OP and wanted to steal her life.
She did it for a bet with her friend.
She did it to test her pulling power.
She didn't do it at all and the H made it up either to cover his own approach to her or to make OP think he's still got it.
The OP is only going to be receptive to the first two of these possibilities, for obvious reasons.

What a cop out . Pleas apply no critical thinking everyone, take it as face value. As this poster finds that more interesting.

the fact remains the odds of a younger woman. In front of the wife who she met and clearly liked, cracked on to her husband is very low indeed. Could it have happened. Yes, is it likely no.

it could have been as simple as he said I can fix cars or whatever, or work in a field she was interested in, and she said can I have your number, could have been a whole manner of things.

do I buy it’s what he said and want to come on and slag women off. No to both.

You think she was envious of you? So basically the two of you spoke to the two of you and you came away with one thinking they fancied him and you thinking they were envious of you? As that what you’re telling each other?

My husband does as well, but "girls" don't ask him for his phone number! 😁🍿

Isn’t it more that he was an investor in a restaurant with a reputation to maintain and didn’t want that jeopardised by waitresses acting like slappers and passing their numbers to random customers?

She did it to be bitchy towards you. To say "I am younger than you, ha ha take that!". She probably didn't fancy your DH at all. Just forget about that neurotic woman.

Slappers???

I think a woman passing her number to a man who is clearly with a romantic partner can rightfully be called a slapper tbh @Sunnyandsilly

What is the relevance of her being a single mum?

It’s a horrible mysogynstic dated term and you’ve no idea if it even happened. Never mind condoning posters hurling abuse

Do you? Personally, I find it possible to discuss a person's actions without resorting to offensive misogynist slang. However I appreciate that some individuals have limited vocabulary and perhaps also get a little buzz out of saying bad words about women.

Ha! Well it either did or didn’t work… I’d come back from the toilets in a bar or pub with some woman talking to him (he was Canadian but on leave/living in England so the Canadian accent probably had an appeal to them too). At least one time I got back and he was saying “I told you my fiancée would be right back”. I couldn’t be arsed with speaking to her so I recall I just sat next to him in her viewpoint showing my quite large engagement ring to her, as a kind of “hands off he’s mine” statement.

As if 🙄

My vocabulary is fine thank you, I chose a word which exactly describes the conduct.
