Does your husband have a work wife?

Liz

My husband works in a jail, very long hours. His coworkers are like family. His work wife is also my friend. However she is extremely pretty, and a lot of his coworkers are jealous they are close friends. I am not comfortable with them hanging out without me or in a group setting and they both respect that. She is a 11/10 in looks, and only 22 and I’m 33 and struggle with body image issues. But I can’t hold her looks against her, I feel that’s not fair. And my husband loves how I look, and tells me I’m beautiful every day. I can’t help but worry if we broke up, or something happened to me they’d be together. As of right now she’s also in a relationship and has a serious boyfriend. Would this be something you’d be okay with? Why or why not?

I think the word work wife is inappropriate. Just call it a good work friend

Extra poll option..."No, but I'd be ok with it"

It’s not ok with me. I’ve been working in the gaming industry for over 25 years and I’ve seen 100’s of affairs start at work. In many instances both people were married or in serious relationships. They usually start innocently enough but I’m not letting another woman be besties with my husband.

My husband is a nurse so around women ALL day long. At his previous hospital he had a work wife and I’m fine with it 🤷🏻‍♀️ we both have kids, our kids hang out and I don’t need to be there. They text often but they are just really good friends so I don’t see an issue
