They've been good friends for years, and even pre pandemic both worked from home, so they've had similar flexibility in their schedules to hang out or talk or whatever. Totally great with this; I like Friend, and I'm glad Hubs has someone to talk to. Friend has been having some troubles in her marriage. She's started wanting to hang out with my husband more and more, and now it's going out at night and staying out late, and not just meeting for a work day lunch. I'm theoretically invited to these outings, but I have to stay home with the kids most of the time unless we can find a sitter. She's also been on the Ozempic train, and with the weight loss, she seems to be getting done up when she and my husband go out. It feels like she's dressing up FOR Hubs. I'm feeling threatened andjealous, though I do trust my husband. Friend has mentioned before to Hubs he has a “perfect” marriage, and it seems to me she's trying to experience her own piece of that by spending solo time with my husband. I've mentioned my concerns to my husband, and he says nothing will ever happen and he'd be happy to send me out with Friend. But it's not that I'm feeling left out; it's that Friend is playing happy couple with my husband. She always treats, so they do a lot of expensive stuff that Hubs and I wouldn't do together. What do you think? —Jealous Jealousy gets a bad rap. There are good reasons for that, but in its purest original form, it is an alarm. Jealousy is no different from fear or anger in that sense; it's not healthy to live with daily or act upon rashly, but occa sional flare-ups are intended to wake us up to something that isn't right. Yet in valid efforts not to be pos sessive or controlling, a lot of us have conditioned ourselves to play it super extra cool when we're jealous. That is a mistake. When you're routinely home with small kids while your husband goes out to play, even as a trusted wingman to an old friend wanting a fresh start, that's enough to justify the putting down of feet. Even if he were out living it up with his grandfather. That he's out with his emotion ally awakened and newly hottened female BFF, and it doesn't feel good to you at all in your gut, just gives you more reasons to heed the alarm, not reasons to question yourself. This is your wake-up to wake him up. If he agrees to back off only to appease you, then he doesn't under stand — which would make all this about your marriage in general, not just the one over-friendly friend.
