This Man Asked His Wife to Quit Her Job. Is He a Jerk?

How would you react if your spouse or your significant other demanded that you quit your job?

It doesn’t happen very often, but when it does, you know it’s going to lead to some hurt feelings and some drama.

Let’s see what went down in this family from Reddit’s “Am I The A**hole?” page.

AITA for asking my wife to quit her job after her boss tried to kiss her?

“So I am M24 and my wife is F25. She is my high school sweetheart, we’ve been together since we were 18 and went through Uni together too.

We married last year and overall everything is going really well. This year she started a job in a fashion store (its her first job ever) and she really enjoys it there.

So she frequently goes to after work dinners and drinks with her co-workers, most of which are male. Im fine with that of course, I fully trust her and know she would never want to cheat on me. Also she always tells me everything and doesn’t leave out details. I know all of her co-workers, including her boss, i’ve met them a few times before.

So the other day she tells me that after one of those evening outs with her co-workers she was walking with her boss back to the store to pick something up at around 4am, and he tried to kiss her. She of course pulled away right away (I believe her) and she went home to me to tell me straight away. Of course I am freaking out, I dont like this one bit, her boss knows me, he knows we are married.

So the next morning I gathered my thoughts and told her straight up that I would like her to quit her job. I dont feel comfortable her working there anymore. She says im overreacting, she would never do anything with him and she loves her job and enjoys getting paid of course.

She is not even considering looking for something else, she really wants to stay there but I feel super uncomfortable. She said she wouldn’t go for drinks alone with her boss anymore, but honestly thats not enough for me.
