DH went out on a works do on Thursday night and today when I was using his phone a message from one of his colleagues popped up and I accidentally opened their conversation (iPhone so it was hovering at the top and didn’t know how to get rid of it). There were a few from Friday discussing the night before, DH said he had been quite drunk and colleague said ‘yeah I thought you must have been, you spent like an hour telling Megan how much you loved tits and how nice hers were’ ‘Megan’ is one of their colleagues Sad Angry. The rest of the conversation makes it clear that nothing actually happened, DH basically said he was cringing at the memory and colleague said it wasn’t a big deal and that she hadn’t seemed bothered.

I am obviously upset, I told him straight away that I’d seen the messages and he didn’t actually seem that worried I don’t think he thinks he did much wrong. He insists nothing happened with her and I do trust him that he hasn’t/wouldn’t do anything physical but hate the idea that he’s now going to work everyday with a woman that he’s had that conversation with.

Would you consider this flirting or ‘normal’ drunken conversation and would you be upset or am I over reacting?

He said he barely remembers it so can’t tell me any more but I am also worried about what else he could have said in a long drunken conversation with just her

It was banter nothing more nothing less

BANTER? Banter?

Grossly letching at a woman's tits for an hour? That's not banter, mate. That's sexual harassment.

@dhsufb - I can understand how upsetting this is for you on the 'does this mean my husband doesn't love me?' front

I think it means that your husband is very willing to fancy other women. If that makes you feel unhappy and uncomfortable, maybe get some counselling to help you see your way through this? Hugs to you Thanks

I'm surprised at the it's banter comment. To go on drunkenly for an hour about how much you like breasts and particularly hers is just letchy shitty behaviour. It doesn't even seem the ops husband and his colleague think it was just banter.

Beyond belief that anyone could think this is just banter. It beats the op thinking it's flirting, and that's saying something.

Banter is friends taking the piss out of each other in a friendly way.

Spending hours telling a woman how much you love boobs and how much you love hers, is sexual harassment and letchy.

Banter is not a synonym for being a pervert.
