Would you leave DH because of his growing feelings for OW?

Title should read an other woman

Been together for a long time, have 3 dc who are in their late teens. We have been really happy for most of it. However in the past year DH has become very good friends with a woman he works with. They have lots in common and the same sense of humour. They spend their coffee breaks together, eat lunch together. I’m glad he has mates at work but it spills over into his/our time now and is starting to feel more than just a mate as they often keep in touch when they aren’t at work too.
He knows this worries and really upsets me but says it shouldn’t do and disregards my concerns.
I think for him their friendship is becoming more important and interesting than our marriage and family life and I feel so sad that I’m just disappearing into the background. Don’t know what to do.

I'm a man and I text/ WhatsApp ladies all the time. Sometimes a little risqué, most times not. Jokes/political comments/general shooting the breeze. My wife knows and can see my phone any time she wants

Fucking hell.

How would you feel if she was doing the same with men?

It’s just weird if you ask me “ I text /WhatsApp ladies all the time “ .

Cringe

”risqué, shooting the breeze” 🙄

"Ladies." 😎

Just style- not principle!! Not important!😉😉

Interesting. Would you be willing to share why you think that? Just curious, exchanging views.

Go away.

😊😊

I work with men in the main and an good friends with a few. We text and call . If my husband said I had to start involving him and br ing him for coffee to meet him . !like some Victoria n dad or jealous spouse i d tell him.to get a grip.. Sorry op.

if you think he's cheating them speak to him..

The only thing worse than grown women who think this response is cute, original or funny is grown men who do the same after resurrecting a zombie thread because it's very important to them to tell us that they, too, irritate women with text messages and their wives should accept it... and present it as a call for intellectual discussion because they think they're scientists observing the petri dish of female discourse.

Seriously, go away. It's only you who thinks any of this is new or enlightening.

@Donniemac

You reanimated a thread from a year ago to tell us all what a giant creep you are.

Your poor wife.

Oh dear!! Ladies, ladies. Too much hostility. My wife is fully involved-these ladies have been friends for a while, some for literally decades. The issue is it's ok to banter with people the same gender as your partner. It's a rich source of humour. Doesn't mean you're about to jump on each other.

You make my skin crawl and I absolutely guarantee that if you really do text all these women all the time, at least some of them feel the same way (one of them is probably your mum so she's used to it).

I wish there weren't so many of you. Why do they always think they're funny?

Understand! Enough, eh! 😊😊😉😉

Yes, enough. Go away. Nobody is entertained or charmed or amused or impressed. Stop talking down to women as if we were some weird species for your observation, stop trying to be funny, stop resurrecting zombie threads so you can tell us how much women love you bothering them and how much we should love you bothering them, stop abusing emojis. Go away.

Fine. She does.

I wonder why a man whose phone is brimming with laydeez who just love receiving his shit messages, and whose wife is sooo cool about it, would insist on resurrecting zombies and posting unwanted crap on here to get attention. It's a mystery.

I'd ask what that last one is even about, but I don't care. Go away.

Thought you had gone. That response was to another poster

Go away. Why on earth do you want this if your phone's blowing up with women who think you're cool?

That's great love.

Now was there anything else you wanted or are you done?

🙂🙂😉😉bye for now

Thank God for that. If anyone finds the pod they're all spawning from, please can you pull the plug and take a hammer to the motherboard?
