Fed up with colleague rimming this down my throat?

[Glasgowrache]

I’ve a colleague who I get along with at work, we chat and know a reasonable amount about each other.

She has dated a few people over the past year of two, she’s currently seeing someone who is getting divorced. It seems to be getting a bit serious in her words (only been a few weeks) and they’ve discussed buying a house down the line.

He has a very well paying job and she has said they’ll either be able to buy somewhere and be Mortgage free, or buy a big house in a great area which she never thought she’d be able to live in. Great, I do want her to be happy.

My ‘AIBU’ is whether I am wrong to feel fed up with her mentioning his wealth at every opportunity, and how she could never dream of ‘being mortgage free at her age’. It is starting to feel gloaty now…

True…

I’m clutching my pearls at that thread title.

She seems just as into it to be honest, making all these grand plans etc. I don’t think she realises it won’t all be plain sailing with him having a couple of teenagers and not always able to be free every weekend. I haven’t said that to her of course.

Glad it's not just me.😂

😳😳😳😳😳😳😳

I’d just smile and leave her to it and wait until reality bites.

That title made me laugh. I had no idea what rimming meant until my late 20’s when a boyfriend wanted to do it to me (I let him once, 🤮).

How long was he single before he started dating? I bet he’s waited a good few months and has got himself sorted before he throws himself into dating ( which of course I don’t believe for one minute ). Of course if his stbexw is on here she’ll have a SHL and he may find himself with slightly less money than he might imagine. Your friend would certainly be thick as mince to be even talking about living together this early let alone buying a house together.

You need to order some HelloFresh.

Me neither!

What is a SHL? I dont believe it was long, she doesn’t know about my colleague yet either.

Shit Hot Lawyer

Snap!

😂

Comments did not disappoint...

Great title.

I would be concerned that he is not actually divorcing and that she’s the other woman.

Just nod and smile. She’s a grown up.

If she mentions rimming do post again.

Tell her that some people are so poor that money is all they have.

Does she actually like him? Or just his wallet?

Viscous thread for you,OP!

or just tell her to shut TF up???

Yes, I'm a bit disappointed too. 😕

I was going to say the same thing! 🤣

She’s currently seeing someone who is getting divorced. It seems to be getting a bit serious in her words (only been a few weeks) and they’ve discussed buying a house down the line.

Bless him!

No one falls in love as quickly as an about-to-be-divorced man in need of a new home with a free child minder, housekeeper, cook, etc. who also provides sexual services.

I'm not, this thread is hilarious!

Smile and support her - especially when she discovers it’s all lies and she’s already paid him her half of the house deposit.

I tend to agree with this assessment.

OP, I would find this annoying, too. She should know better than to go on about wealth. Can't you say something straight out but with a funny twist? Like, "Well that's great for you, but I won't be mortgage-free for a long time so do stop going on about it, or I might have to strangle you!"
