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…

There are not many "types" of people I have a blanket dislike for, but women who leech onto a man's wealth and somehow feel proud of it as though they earned it themselves are one such type.

it is somehow so demeaning to everyone involved.

This too.
Men often move on fast because they want a free babysitter/housekeeper

Is she absolutely rimming with confidence... if so I bet he is pleased...

future faking …

She’s in cloud cuckoo land, just go along with her. Smile and say, ‘’how exciting!’’ Ad nauseam and watch as it all falls apart. Or, if she’s annoying you that much, start putting seeds of doubt in her mind, ‘’Wow, that seems very quick Sheila, I’d be worried all isn’t as it seems. Still, as long as you’re happy, eh?’’

🤣 omg

Good Lord.

feel a bit disappointed with the content of this thread after the exciting title...

He's married.

When she starts on about it, just ask her another question that's unrelated to wealth
Her: "I can believe that I'll be living in a 5 bed house!"
You: "You sound so happy. Are his friends nice/have you met his mum/do you like the same music.."
Everytime. Don't worry about being subtle. Because you're still 'showing an interest'. Might even give her pause for thought if there's not much else but his money to recommend him.

Hes doing what men do when they are going to lose half their house they look for a new partner either with a house that she can sell or to get a mortgage with so he can get back to status hes just about to lose, notice hes not saying how much he likes her just how big the house will be with her help of course and dont forget if he has children they will be in the big house also

This and he isn't yet divorced.
Friend seems a bit naive

Wont be much rimming or sexual services going on with 2 teenagers living there with all their friends staying every weekend

Let's just wait and see what position he's actually in once his divorce is sealed and signed off.......
Reality versus assumption can be poles apart!

Add some questions about why he split up with his ex here too, I bet she’s crazy and never paid him any attention because she was always looking after the kids. Or at least that’s what he’ll be telling her.

i do think she’s annoying but also feel for her. My gut is telling me she is being used to make the ex wife jealous. I can’t see this ending well for her and even annoying people deserve better than that.

@Glasgowrache tell her you aren't interested and that she's boring you. Life is too short for unsatisfactory conversations!

Never understood the appeal, myself.

My thoughts exactly.
Just nod & smile. You don’t need to say anything.

Just on here for the rimmimg craic, so to speak.

Well she sounds a complete muppet if she believes a nearly divorced fella she has known a few weeks is going to be following through on all these grand plans.

Interesting workplace you're in, doll...😆

In the 'Trending' posts box on the right hand side, it just says:

"Fed up of colleague rimming"

🤣

I’d just laugh as she’s been with him a couple of ]
weeks. Even if they did buy, it he had any sense he’d protect his deposit. It will likely end in tears

Hahaaa 😆 gave me a much needed laugh x
