Name changed obviously.
I went out for a work do last night. I've been at my place of work for ten years in a support staff/ back office role rather than a coal face role. Slightly surprised to have been invited as never have been before.
Got talking to a few people and long story short : someone (who'd had a few drinks) made a snide comment to me which I then questioned what they meant, they replied "oh come on caramackeral we all know you slept with Joe Bloggs".
I 100% did not and have never even held his hand, I'm married and they know my husband. I was absolutely flabbergasted and just said "No i fucking didn't". It emerged Joe Bloggs (who left the company seven years ago) had either told people that or hinted at it and let them draw a wrong conclusion.
Now things sort of add up... People blanking me, finding it difficult to form any sort of friendship. Not being invited places.
I just thought it was because I was support staff and not in the in crowd.
What do I do?! I am fucking livid with Joe Bloggs.
