Overthinking?

My husband started his second job today as a waiter in a restaurant. His first day is a catering event where he had to look very formal. He literally looked super handsome before he left. I don't know why I kinda feel jealous as I am at home with two babies while he is looking his best catering but whatever. And within 15 minutes of him being there he sent me a message that one of his colleagues asked to babysit for us so he gave her my number. Am I overthinking to not find this appropriate? My husband knows I have a babysitter I am very happy with and besides that I am on a whatsapp group of babysitters which I always find some trustworthy person on that can babysit spontaneously so I don't know why he thought I need his colleague too. Am I overthinking it? 😭

Why would some random lady babysit? He’s way too trusting of her like is he ok? 😅

@Jennifer My husband is way too playful and open often, I feel like it's so easy for a girl to think he is flirting with them because it's very natural for him. So I am a bit annoyed he accepted the offer, I personally can't imagine, within 15 minutes of knowing my new colleague, offering him to babysit wth😬

Yeah it’s very inappropriate esp since he knows there’s no need for a babysitter. Making her think it’s ok to come over is very weird and her being so willing is questionable as well. I’d make it clear to him to remain professional at work. Coworkers don’t need to know your business or be in your home.

Well I think using a baby sitter he had just met is weird, but on the other hand within 15 minutes he had already told his colleague about you and his kids which is pretty sweet that it’s the first thing he spoke about. Maybe he was just trying to help (even if it wasn’t needed) and let you know he’s thinking of you and the kids. You mention he’s trusting by nature which is a flaw, so maybe just have a chat with him about why he wants another baby sitter? Could there be something about the current babysitter he doesn’t agree with even though you are happy with her?

It's understandable to feel some type of way if he's having fun and looking sexy and going out even if just for work I suppose. It wouldn't bother me as I know it's for the family. However the too trusting character is really hard to deal with especially with men. Because there's always some one or some woman wanting to take advantage of it. Tell him to keep your family life private and to tone down on his "openness" and hopefully he'll receive it positively.

@Lav Yup, as expected, that girl didn't reach out to me concerning babysitting. She was likely disappointed my husband gave her my number instead of his own. He told me he wouldn't give another woman his number so he gave mine so she doesn't interpret too much. But yeah, that girl is sus!

@Daria lol. I like his thinking actually. I just remembered a similar story. When my bub was still small the dad was telling me an old friend of his said she can babysit for us but he gave me her number instead. So she'd keep trying to engage him in that sense. Then 1 day he said why don't I call the woman who also happened to be a childcare teacher to meet and see if I trust her to watch bub etc etc .. well I did and she never answered me back lol 😅😅 he then tried to ask wsup and she also ignored him lol 😅😅 I told him wtf your history was I am not interested nor bothered but don't do that shid again. Don't be involving me and bub in your one sided "honest" convos with these women. Because usually the guy is honestly happy about his family but the woman isn't and just wants to make trouble. He stopped talking to her. Another issue is when men are at work and any woman so much as smiles at them they get so excited lol
