In Reply To: My husbands boss is single and always looking for dates. He is constantly setting up group activities for the employees under him that I am uncomfortable with. For instance, a day at the lake where they rented a couple of jet skis. The young girls put on their bikinis and climbed onto the backs of the jetskis driven by their co-workers, men like my husband. Then there are the endless rounds of happy hours, long lunches, poker parties, volleyball and football games, all designed just for this coed group of co-workers. The group has become very close and very flirtatious. I am not the only wife concerned with this. My husband feels that if he doesnt participate he will be perceived as not being a team player. Does anyone else have this happening, or have an opinion. Thanks, Anonymous wife
Message: Jeez, I really feel for you. If it were my husband I'd be furious. you don't have to be the jealous type to be bothered by this. are the wives also invited to any of these events? It might help things if you and some other wives went along. It might help curb their behavior. if wives aren't currently invited along, maybe your husband could request it. otherwise, I wish I had some better ideas. :(
