If a workmate befriended you and was inviting you over for coffee while her husband was there and going on outings but her husband was there also, then later finding out she only wanted you to be friends with her because her and her hubby like to have, well, "extras" in the bedroom. Not sure how to put it, but yeah I'm sure you all know what I mean.

Would you talk to the boss and ask that you are not put to work with that person anymore and explain why, or would you simply avoid her, or would you quit your job? Or would you just go about your day to day duties as if nothing had happened, even if you felt extremely uncomfortable around this woman because of the way she sees you?

There's nothing illegal in approaching a work collegue - but it's illegal if she now hassels you

I'd make it quite clear that you're flattered that both her & hubby find you attractive, but menage de trois isn't your scene.

I wouldn't have a problem working, and things would continue as they always have

Hmmm, I'm very sensitive with some things and this is one of them. I actually resigned but still do some relief work there and she just makes my skin crawl. It's not the only place I do relief work, although I have become very attached to the children there since I worked there as a permanent for a year before going to relief work.

If she is making your feel uncomfy - tell her to back off and that you just aren't interested in a friendship with her - you are simly work associates.

If she doesn't backoff after you have said something, I would speak to your boss.

Tough situation.....

Id just tell her to buzz off, no thanks, not interested. But I wouldnt avoid her or anything, Id probably just have a good laugh about it lol.
