I feel like my husband only hires attractive women: Advice?

My husband has his own business. Therefore he hires his own employees. He has built a landscaping company up from nothing to something we can live off, plus some. My issue is, I feel like he only hires beautiful women…literally, every single woman that works for him is so pretty, and it makes me insecure. They have outings all the time for work that I am not invited to, and I feel like sometimes he works later than he should because he comes home at 9 pm sometimes and I know he isn’t actually working that late since most of the landscaping that gets done isn’t happening in the dark… One girl, in particular, contacts him all hours of the night, and he tells me, " I have nothing to worry about." But I feel like I do. I feel she should not be texting my husband in the middle of the night, but he always says it’s work-related and that’s it. Am I wrong for feeling some way?

Go with your gut!!! I just lost my husband of 8 years to a female from work his story sounds very similar to yours the girl would even contact me telling me it was nothing

Definitely red flags all over this!!! Start investigating, get his phone if possible… it sounds like you already know something is up. I would start packing up bags or if you want to play the same game, find yourself a side piece as well.

If he can, why can’t you?

Listen to your gut. Something isn’t right here. For any special outings, especially outside of work hours, you should ways be there. I’d start making your presence known and show up randomly at all hours of the day just for a quick hello or for lunch or whatever. Also, call into WAR OF THE ROSESSSSSS. Good luck!

Ok, I would start by asking for his phone. If it’s just work then he should have no problem sharing to put you at ease. As far as the company outings, you’re a big part of the company. I’m sure without your help and support the company wouldn’t be what it is now. You should atleast be invited, whether you can or want to attend should be left up to you. Sometimes it really is just work. I personally worked for a company where my boss left at 2:30 and I didn’t leave until 9. The last week of every month I would have to update him on what shipped, numbers, etc. when I shut down the office for the day. So he was prepared when him and his boss came in at 5 the next morning. I worked for them for years so I knew his wife and children personally. She knew if it was my name/number coming across his phone or he was calling me it was strictly business.

So let’s be honest: if your gut is alarming… well then you either 1) don’t trust him or 2) there’s a good reason not to. Either way it’s a problem with one of you or both.

Miss/Mrs. Susie homewrecker is everywhere. She doesn’t have even be attractive or intelligent. So I wouldn’t worry your mind about what the females actually look like.

Now you need to sit down and have an adult conversation with your husband. You thoughts, feelings, concerns and expectations of him. A female messaging my husband at night would be a huge issue for me. If he wants to be single and live that life, bye :wave:t2:. If he wants to be married then act like it. He should be able to set boundaries as a boss and husband. If he doesn’t respect you then he will just turn this into a fight. But sis, protect your peace and maintain your head about you. Going crazy and losing your mind in the fight will only label you as “crazy”. He will NEVER listen or care about what you have to say if you act like that. Never escalate yourself in a fight.

If he continues and doesn’t feel the need to act like he’s a husband then you know your answer. Either way, YOU DESERVE BETTER THAN WHATYOU FEEL RIGHT NOW! Maintain your value. :heart:

You have every right to feel this way. My husband had a coworker that would text him on his off days and late at night. When I questioned it he said it was always work related. I told him there are work hours for a reason. It continued. Of course, he was having an affair with her. I knew it from the first 1am text. Professionals don’t take texts unless an emergency at 1am. If you can, check his phone. But, by doing that, trust is already out the window and that’s very hard to repair. I don’t think it ever gets fully repaired. Stay strong. You deserve better.

A few things, if I was in your situation, I would do the following:
1)Confront him about it and explain to him that it’s not professional of himto be taking calls at odd hrs from ANYBODY; 2) Sometimes having attractive girls for business is a good thing because they can bring business using their looks or they are heard more, so it can be good for business, however, he can’t cross that line where he wants an attractive girl for business and starts fraternizing with her too much; 3) acting like a jealous wife will push him to her, he’ll start thinking about how much difficult his life is with you, keep appearances, and a straight head…If you think you can’t, PRETEND!; 4) he may not be having an affair but it seems to me like it might be heading that way! 5) if he goes out with his “co-workers” than you tag along! If he acts defensive or like he doesn’t want you around, you’ll have your answer! Do not threaten to leave him unless you plan on actually doing it!

I hope I was able to help a bit! Best of lucks!

I’d personally set some boundaries… there’s no reason she needs to text him all hours of the night. Maybe have a talk with him and say “listen this makes me feel insecure, it’d make me feel a lot better if she would talk to you at normal hours, like maybe not after 7-8pm” and just see what happens.

Yeah, he is cheating. But sadly, you probably love him more than you do.yourself and you want to see the best in him and make it work. You need to love yourself enough not to allow someone to lie to you and treat you as if you aren’t smart enough to figure it out.

Link your phones together so you get his messages lol. You can even Link it with a pc. If it were me, next message he gets from a woman outside of working hrs, it call her and completely go off on both of them. Then I would fire her. If he got a problem with that them he be fired too.

I will say this I worked for a landscaping company for years, and there was nights we wouldn’t be done till 9-10 or even 11 at night starting at 5am. It can happen. But I will say go with your gut if you feel something is going on then bring it up. The gentleman I worked for was always flirting and such.

Hell nah! Time to stash money for a egg nest! I’d be starting my own business and having my friends text me at all hours of the night pretending like clients and tell his ass its work related. See how he feels about it. Get a PI. My EX husband use to do this crap and he was meeting other woman going to casinos spending all our bill money. All that screams something is going on behind your back. I’d show up with lunch for him daily in sexy outfits and strut my shit right in front of her and kiss him right there. Mine was sleeping with the ceo of the church. :woozy_face:

I would have no problem with the hiring of pretty women. Respect goes a long ways, and he is being disrespectful. Stop dealing with it!

Start stashing money and talk with a divorce lawyer. Find proof. Screen shots texts between them- prove he’s cheating and you will get half of everything. Screw him. You have every right to feel this way. Every time my partner said I had nothing to worry about sure enough I did! Follow that gut feeling and look out for your self. I’d even call that women and very kindly talk with her (record the conversation and at the end of the conversation make sure you say and by the way this being recorded) or text her but I feel like over the phone would be better. I’m sorry this is happening to you. But don’t let him play you- he will probably try to pull every excuse out his bumb don’t fall for it- let him go and move on I promise you will be much happier after you heal your heart.

Trust your gut. It is always right. ALWAYS!

Honestly you don’t have to be nasty about it… So many people are filled with so much hate and damage that they are telling you to go act out of anger. If you feel he is cheating. Sit him down. Talk to him. Go to one of his events or even reach out to that woman. If you think he is cheating then you have your answer. Pick up and move on. Once they cheat, they will always do so. Whether it’s in text form or physically. If you can accept living that way then stay but I would say pack up and move on. He is dealing with his own issues and you don’t deserve to feel that way about yourself.

He needs to learn how to separate home life and work life. He should leave his work matters at the door!! I would not be okay with a woman texting my husband during any hours of the night. That’s family time!! It would make me insecure too. I’d just have to invite myself to some of those things but if you’re like me, someone has to be with the kids.

Next time ask to see the text

Is your husband really attractive or what’s the carrot he’s dangling in from of these “beautiful women”.
Weather he is cheating or not you’ve got 2 issues to deal with

  1. his work schedule and his employee messaging at night is not okay if it’s every day.
  2. your insecurities, weather he’s cheating or not. Work on your self worth and workout or do whatever you need to do to feel “attractive”.

Always trust your intuition. Period.
I’m super laid back and easy going, but I felt this same way w my ex. I’m just not the type to even care, but my gut was telling me otherwise. When I look back my gut was right all along.
Plan well, whatever you decide to do, plan very well.

I’d totally be suspicious too!

He needs to create boundaries with his employees, period. When the work day ends they shouldn’t be contacting him unless it’s an EMERGENCY which really for the type of business there shouldn’t be many. If he can’t do that for the sake of you twos relationship then I’d probably give him an ultimatum.

If life has taught me anything, its always listen to my guy. So listen to your gut. Your gut is telling u something isn’t right mote than likely there is something. I would sit down and talk to him about how u feel. His body language will tell u all u need to know. If he gets super defensive than u already know.

Trust your gut. No way they are just talking business late at night unless it’s the oldest business in the history of the world. :wink: Technically it’s 50% your business too.

Sounds like you need to take a bigger role in the company that feeds you. All that sounds typical to me. He might be prepping for the next day, etc. Hiring attractive women is how you feel about it but imagine all the crap they bring to the table all day. They’re employees just like the men with problems and issues, not prospective love interests. He’s your husband so trust and communication are a must. I always had questions that needed to be answered about whatever sometimes it was at night. My husband used to get texts from his employees at whatever time. I’ve also seen the same thing happen with my step dad when he was in charge of a team. There was never anything going on, it’s just part of being a boss of people. If you feel it in your gut check it out without a doubt but don’t let your insecurities run rampant when it comes to your relationship and your livelihood.
