My husbands friend made an inappropriate comment about me: Advice?

Did he know he was on speaker with a child in the car?

Maybe this guy thought :thought_balloon: you guys were on a certain level of sarcasm that you clearly weren’t on. Or maybe that the “guys” are on and not you :thinking: Your fault he was on speaker and your kid heard it. Sorry not sorry. If you don’t start the convo with “hey you’re on speaker” typically is code for kids in the room keep it G rated. Single men don’t think about inappropriate sayings and how little ears can hear things. Your husband shouldn’t need to end a friendship because you got offended. Boohoo where are your big girl panties? Pull the stick out and have a good laugh :laughing:

I think you’ve blown it out of proportion, Yes it was inappropriate, But get over it, He thought he was being funny (he wasn’t) but it’s done and gone, And you’re making it a long lasting issue, No he doesn’t have to give up a friend for you over one flippant remark, So stop starting arguments and move on unless you plan to ruin your marriage over something so trivial 🤷 This whole me or him bit your doing won’t end well for you, Even if you manage to nag him into cutting contact, He’ll resent you’ll for it and your relationship will worsen and end, Is it worth it? Don’t get me wrong, The guys an asshat for saying it, He clearly didn’t think it through, But there was no harm meant by it, No malicious intent, Just a dick move.

Some people just joke around like that but mean nothing about it. Take control. Tell him if he ever makes a comment like that about you again you will kick him in his junk. Tell your husband you don’t find it funny and it it happens again he can sleep on the couch for months. Then move on already

Sorry but I have to say that’s hilarious :rofl: I dare say he probably didn’t realise he was on speaker or that your child was listening I do genuinely think the comment was just man banter they have dumb banter at times and tbh half the time they don’t even think about what they are about to hit out with I guess it’s all down to your sense of humour and the fact your oh didn’t react just kinda proves it wasn’t meant seriously but have a chat with your oh let him know that you don’t feel comfortable with that sort of banter and ask him maybe to have a word with his friend

The friend wanting marriage or kids has no correlation to his comment so I don’t know why you mentioned that.
This person was a friend of your husbands before you married, so it’s odd that you see his behavior as so shocking.
Your husband was “shocked” because you were there, most men joke like that.

But something tells me that if it’s bothering you so much as to tell your husband to end the friendship that there was already an underlying issue and this just tipped it off.

I don’t care how he meant it. He picked the wrong one to say that shit about. Never disrespect me at all. I don’t care if we are all close. No man is going to say shit like that. You demand respect or people will treat you however.

You guys have gave him enough comfort for him to be able to say something like this. Clearly your husband brushed it off and took it as a joke. You need to make it clear to the friend since the beginning that comments like that are not ok with you. Were you more bothered because your kid was in the car? As cool as I am with my husband’s friends I’ve drawn a line and they know not to cross it. Like I said y’all both have given him enough comfort zone in order for him to say something like that.

My husband probably just would never talk to them ever again BUT maybe your husband jokes like that too with other mutual friends of theirs or even about other stuff with that friend so thats why he kind of felt he had no place to get angry about it. If he still did get mad he could have always said “hey man I know I joke alot but I didnt like that comment lets not joke like that anymore now I know how it feels. “ etc. since it has been so long you should let it go unless that person actually tries anything directly with you or it becomes a regular thing.

Get over it, it was a joke and he didn’t know. MOVE ON. Why are you still worried about it 6 months later? Your kid has long forgotten about it. Sounds to me you just want to drag it on for something to fight about.

I can’t believe all the “it’s no big deal” and “let it go” comments I’m seeing. Especially from other women… You absolutely have the right to address someone disrespecting you no matter who it is. And maybe your husband has a very loose sense of humor but that “friend” would not be welcomed back into my space. I would ask my spouse why they even want to be around someone who speaks that way about you.

Maybe you should bring this up with your husband and have a talk about what you feel is appropriate talk and what is not

If your husband does not want to confront the situation for whatever the reason. Then by all means protect your own feelings an convey to the " friend" how his behavior affects you and its inappropriateness especially in your child’s presence. If it continues be a bitch and chew his ass publicly

Maybe she thought it was weird because your husband is supposed to be the one you confide in, not the one who you’re unsure about if he’s making weird jokes about you with his friend. This doesn’t make her uptight or grouchy, it makes her a normal woman.

I’m sorry but the fact that y’all are brushing this off and saying it was a joke is seriously disturbing and disgusting.
That’s sexual harassment, her kid was in the car and heard it, the husband brushed it off instead of hanging up or saying something when his wife is clearly upset about it, and he is still friends with this lowlife.
If my husband had a friend who said this to me Not only in front of my kid but at any time that friend would be in the hospital,I’d be bailing my man out of jail, he’d make him apologize but they’d never speak again after, and if it was in front of our kid he’d have hung up and messaged him about it later ending all contact.

Your husband is going to have to learn to man up and tell his “buddy” that he owes you an apology and he’s going to need to remind his “buddy” that he has a wife and children and that the inappropriate comment got made on speaker phone and that he doesn’t appreciate it (joke or not) ! Sounds like his buddy was just “playing” but was very ignorant to blurt something like that out. It’s just disrespectful. His friend needs to learn to be respectful or your husband needs to find a new buddy. It’s that simple. Things change once you are married with kids ! The college crap talk should end … if that’s what that was. :woman_shrugging:t2: Either way, your husband needs to have the conversation with his friends and let him know his disrespectful jokes aren’t welcomed around him, you, and y’all’s family !

Just my opinion ! Good luck

No man is going to to bluntly say “your wife can give me a blow job” there had to be relationship built up funny, dirty jokes and you were fine with it and now your playing the dumbfounded women because your on your period.

Now, let’s say you didn’t have that relationship nor did your husband, why are you with your husband? He apparently wasn’t that shocked because he continues to be friends with the prick and doesn’t mind offering your mouth up to his friend.

If anything, you should be mad at your husband and reconsidering your marriage cause he doesn’t care about the remark.

Good luck, y’all sound crazy already!

I think I would gave jumped him before my husband could. Regardless I would not being business with him.

I think since it happened 6 months ago you gotta let it goooo
Yes he’s a dirtbag but you needed to confront him right then, right there or the next time you saw him in person. Next time he says something you don’t like, put him in his place right away & solve it then.
Bringing it up to your husband again & again for 6 months is doing nothing but putting strain on your marriage. Not worth it girl, like i said let it go.

Im pretty sure your 5 year old doesnt know what a blow job is first and foremost. Secondly if its been 6 months and nothing more has been said I would let it go. There’s no sense in destroying marriage because of something his friend said 6 months ago. I woulf just make sure my husband knows I thought it was inappropriate, and that he knows I’m not comfortable around his friend because of what he said being nasty, and move on. Your husband can’t control what his friends say.

The fact you asked this guy for help with court stuff makes me believe he must be a good friend of your husbands. Meaning hr has built up quite a relationship with your husband. He probably meant it as a joke, didnt realise he was on loud speaker so didn’t no your 5yr old would hear.
If you had mearly said, “i dont think so mate, keep dreaming” at the time he would have known you’d heard and apologised for being crude.
But the fact it was over 6months ago now you need to get over it and stop bringing it up to your husband now.

Red flag! I wouldn’t take it lightly. You can tell you have a lot of self respect. Be proud of that! One comment can lead to many more. I’d wait and see if he makes more and if he does then I’d raise hell if I were you.

So the real questions are; Did he know he was on speaker with you or the child in earshot? And is this the first/only time a comment has been made in such manner? If he didn’t know anything about being on speaker with you and or the child, then he probably was just having guy talk or adult talk. Now if it’s the only time he’s done such a thing he might have realized that it was an inappropriate thing by now and doesn’t do it.

On another note personally I would say if you are that uncomfortable with him avoid him. Your husband is a grown adult who will just have to except you aren’t comfortable with the guy and get over it. I’m sure by now you have at least one person he doesn’t like that you hang around

YALL RIDICULOUS!!! talking about a joke and she should get over it!!! Anyone would of flipped. Let ya female friend say some shit like she want some head from your husband. Behind jokes are mostly what people meant.

If it was on bluetooth then why didn’t YOU say something? If your husband didn’t lose his shyt then this must be the type of joking around they do with each other & maybe the friend wouldn’t have said it if he knew he had an audience. You should have addressed it right then & there. I don’t think your husband should have to ditch his friend over it. Had he actually propositioned you personally that would be an entirely different story

I mean yeah its gross and disrespectful asf best way to stop it is to embarrass him back…I once had a co-worker say this in front of a crowd, I had let a couple little comments slide (working in a make dominated industry) but that one crossed the line so without batting an eyelid I looked him straight in the eye and said “well in order to do that I’d need a magnifying glass and a pair of tweezers, so no thanks” everyone laughed so hard and he went bright red.

Okay, so my husband would probably not be friends with a man who would say that he wanted me to give him a blowjob. Let alone have him around me.

Humor or not, it’s really inappropriate - yes, there’s a line to this sort of thing, big shocker for some of you apparently - and would make me uncomfortable if that guy was still around and can make those uncomfortable remarks again and again.

My husband would respect the fact that I was really uncomfortable by the statement and I would be just as respectful if a woman said the same kind of stuff.

“Locker room talk” is not an excuse to say nasty things about a man’s wife. Vulgar jokes are great and all but there’s a line for people - it’s not being a prude or a stick in the mud.

I’d tell his friend eh you’re dick couldn’t handle it but for him to say that to you with you’re daughter in the vehicle isn’t right. I’m sure he didn’t know but still. This isn’t something that people should laugh at because it’s really immature and disrespectful to a woman on his part. My husband (without me saying anything) would have cussed the guy out and slap him over the head. Yeah he’d still talk to the guy but they guy better have more respect. I wouldn’t try to end a friendship, but I’d talk it over with his friend and tell him it made you uncomfortable and that you’re 5 yr old at the time heard it. It’s not respectful for you nor you’re child. But again I don’t think he knew you’re child was in the care nor that he was on speaker.

My husband would have flipped his lid. Literally and then told him not to be in contact with us again.
