This curiosity I have about my husband and his co-worker is driving me crazy!
Q. My husband has a co worker at work. I am not saying anything is going on between them it's just curiousity for the moment. I noticed that there are a considerable amount of text to and from her. Even one text was in reference to a job and she was ...
A. 13 April 2008: Hi,
It's very easy to read 'trouble' into this working relationship, apart from the volume of text, I would assume that there is nothing that you've read that suggests anything unusual is going on. You need to talk to your husband about this, te... (read in full...)

A. 12 April 2008: Hi, It can be difficult to know how often to call, it can be overdone and she feels swamped. It may help if you tell her that you'll call her tomorrow and assuming she says OK, then make sure you do. Keep on this line on each call, say that y... (read in full...)
