writes: There is a single gal who works with my b/f. She recently lost her b/f and now everytime she needs to go out in the field to do HEr work, she always wants my b/f to accompany her. She's been there for a year now, and it seems like she'd know how to navigate herself around out there by now. I've gotten the feeling she has a crush on my b/f and enjoys finding opportunities to be alone with him. What I don't like is the fact that when he goes out in the field with any other person, (the male co-workers) he's home on by 4:00 or 4:30, but when he goes out in the field with her, he never gets home until around 6:00 or later. Tonight is the perfect example. He rolls in later than usual, leaves the parking lights on on his car, I'm unloading groceries when he arrives home and he doesn't even offer to help. My suspicion? He's loaded. He went and had dinner and drinks with his single female co-worker and this is why he didn't offer to help unload the groceries, or turn off the parking lights on his car. I'm furious by the time this starts to sink in and we get into a huge fight. I tell him I think it's odd that when he goes out into the field with one of the guys, he's home by 4:00 or 4:30, but when he goes out with her, it's always much later. He doesn't offer much of an explanation, another sign that he's been drinking and knows he's can't compete with me in an argument. Am I overreacting? Normally I wouldn't worry about this woman, she's not that great looking, but she's single and I know she's attracted to him and what man can resist a woman who's star-struck by them? She even called him while we were on holiday and has waited for days for him to return to work so she could be alone with him while they're out in the field. And I'm thinking, out of all those people in that office, why can't she find someone else that can go out in the field with her. Why is it always my boyfriend that she waits for? Also, he came home and wasn't hungry. Why? He had dinner with her. It still pisss me off!

Its obvious that something fishy is going down, and he'll either deny it or fess up and explain himself. Either way let him know that because of his lack of a proper explanation, you'd prefer him to tell his co-worker to find another aide at work, or that you might have to leave him because you can't trust his actions and behavior...
Good luck!
