Her fiancé had a company dinner two weeks ago, and that was when she got to see this girl face-to-face for the very first time.
“I told her it was nice to finally meet her after hearing so much about her,” she said. “She smiled, ignored me, and began talking to my fiancé about how different I was from her expectations.”
“The next week, she had apparently been talking a lot at work about how pretty she thought I was and how lucky my partner and I are to have found one another.”
“It felt strange that she had a lot to say about me but didn’t even speak to me when we had a chance to interact. I chalked it up to being nervous or shy.”
Several days ago, her fiancé came home from work one night and told her about his female coworker’s most recent failed personal encounter with a guy.
He stated his coworker just wanted him to share advice, but she felt super uneasy about it and didn’t keep that hidden from her fiancé.
Her fiancé stuck up for his coworker and said she’s innocent. He insisted that once she got to know his coworker better, she would understand.
Last weekend, her fiancé’s coworker asked him to spend some time with her, and he agreed, yet didn’t say anything about the meeting until the last moment.
“We had originally made dinner plans with my parents, and he told me he would come later on because he needed to meet with her to discuss her relationship problems,” she added.
“I very passionately told him that this it is not ok, and he canceled his plans with her, adding that it was “cute” that I was getting so jealous of her. We had a short chat about it later, and he said he would establish some distance.”
“This Monday, after work, she called his personal phone. She said he had not sent her any jokes at work that day, and she wanted to know why. I told him he needed to set boundaries immediately. It’s fine to be friendly with people in the office, but it really felt excessive that she was calling because he was enacting some kind of boundaries.”
