Do you think it's appropriate for a married man to buy a single woman gifts?

All this is so strange (well to me anyway).
If I was wed to this sly man (and I use that term loosely) I would be packing my stuff then pressing for adultery.
The things that stick out to me are the former colleague saying they had a fling and why should any man or women spend half a day looking for a present?. Heck it only takes me an hour to choose Christmas presents for close family.
Maybe this his a way of telling his wife he is seeing someone else?
He sounds a right douche and his wife needs to woman up and respect herself and tell him to pack it in or she will see a family solicitor. His response to that she give her an indication of how to proceed.

Without real, actual, proper proof?

I think it's odd too - but I also think these 2 posters ^^^^ have taken a bit of a leap.

Did you not notice their usernames? :rotfl:

No, I don't look at who has posted, I just reply with my opinion if I'm bothered enough.

Is there something special about the posters I quoted?

What a ridiculous way to carry on - they are both as bad as one another.

Kay said he is a good husband/father/provider and there aren't any major issues in their marriage, and her life is pretty good, but this one thing is niggling her.

So she should tell him that it upsets her and ask him to stop.

If he cares more for her than he does for the woman at work, he will stop.

During my working years, I came across two similar situations. I did not get involved in any way, although one female colleague asked me to take an action I was not comfortable with.

In the two cases, one was a married male treating a single female colleague differently and both obviously displaying "chemistry" for each other. Second case was a married female actively showing interest in her married male co-worker.

First case caused one male vs. male fight, a divorce and subsequent marriage of the lovers. Second case caused TWO divorces, no idea what happened after that as I moved on.

It sounds too familiar to me, as if this will end in tears...

Who are 'both?
Ann - the single colleague
Kay - the wife
Or the husband

That will be 3 people.

Clarification required.

You didn't answer Pollycat's question bluelass.

I'm assuming you mean the other woman and the husband are as bad as each other? Surely you can't mean the wife, as she has done nothing wrong.

Can you confirm this is what you mean?

And if by 'both,' you mean the wife and the husband, or the wife and the other woman; then why? Why is the wife 'as bad' as the husband or other other woman? What has she done wrong?

Can you clarify what you mean please?

I quoted the late princess Di lily-rose. Surely you have heard that 3 of us quote before?. She was talking about Charles and Camilla.
