Should I have alarm bells going off in my head?


Suspicious Wife.

Suspicious Wife.

My story: Married for 3 years, no kids. Recently, a girl (I'll call her Sam) has begun calling our home regularly. She works with him and often calls on "work" matters. She usually does not speak to me, if she does, it's rough-n-tough and almost hostile. I've complained to hubby and he says she's a very sweet girl! One time, she even hung up on me! Should I be suspicious? I feel like I'm being paranoid...he never talks about her and when I ask him, just responds tersely and unemotionally. Should I confront him/her?

Unless your husband works at home, it is so unhealthy to have anyone much less a woman colleague calls him at home on work related issues. How much work is there that it can’t be discussed at the office? As not to jump to conclusion, I had experiences where my husband’s staffs simply ignored me and treated me with such vile attitudes as if I don’t ‘belong’ to him. Usually in situation like this, my husband is not aware of how nasty they can be because he is always treated with the highest respect. In actual fact, these people see only his position and not the person he is.

 

I would voice my concern to my husband. If he is interested in me, he would sit down and listen even though he may think it’s all so trivial. Nothing is trivial and if you feel it is not a norm with him, better be cautious than sorry.

If it bothers you, you should definitely talk to him about it. It's a problem that I've had also, and it's definitely not healthy to hold it in if it's bothering you. As for confronting her, quite honestly, that's something your husband should take care of. Unless it really is a pressing question that can not wait till the work hours, there's no need for her to be calling his home and there is no need for her EVER to be rude to his wife. Period.

Ditto Girlie and Desert Wind. Talk to your husband about it and ask him to tell her not to call your house because it is unprofessional and unnecessary. If she continues even after he talks to her, can this be escalated within the company? If she receives a written notice at work that will go into her personnel file it might stop her. Thats an extreme measure though.
