Colleague fancies DP

33 replies

crochetmonkey74 · 12/10/2018 12:05

One of Dp's colleagues has made it really clear she fancies him - he is very decent and I have no worries at all that anything will happen- we are recently engaged and all going really well. He's told me everything- it's fairly low key at the moment- but my senses are definitely tingling. How do I cope/ shrug it off? Anyone got any strategies?
(spoken to MIL about it- she's had it too as DP and his Dad are peas in a pod, lovely, decent men)

No, lemon there’s nothing odd or peculiar about it and they are not cursed by adoring females either. It’s just a thing that’s happening that I’m chatting about. Nothing sinister or weird. He’s also not full of himself or any of the other worst case scenarios

I can see why this bothers you having dug a little.

Not sure what you mean, sorry

I would be uncomfortable discussing or chatting about another man or woman's crush on my partner at all.

Unless they are acting on this, making passes or harassing him you are only going to come across as being a bit smug or bitchy. Leave alone and be kind. If she does act on it, then your partner should deal with it professionally. Hopefully that would end it.

Agreed, that’s the best way. I wasn’t ever going to confront , just was interested to see how others felt if they had the same. Thanks for the response.
