My Friend’s Husband Has a Crush on Me—She Accused Me of “Looking Hot”
Imagine this: you’re just living your life, dressing in your usual style when, suddenly, a close friend asks you to stop wearing makeup and switch to baggy clothes—all that because her husband might have a crush on you. This is exactly what happened to a 29-year-old woman (OP), whose viral Reddit post sparked debates about friendship, boundaries, and self-respect.The OP begins her post with a shocking revelation: “My (29f) friend (31f) has told me that her husband (35m) has a crush on me.” Naturally, this admission left her feeling awkward, but things escalated when her friend asked her to stop wearing makeup and switch to baggy clothes whenever they were around her husband.
The request came to a head during a group dinner at a “reasonably expensive restaurant.” The OP explained, “There’s nothing I could wear that is baggy that would have suited the restaurant we were in. My style is very conservative, and I was wearing a very average dress with heels.”
Despite her thoughtful choice of attire, her friend accused her of intentionally “looking hot” and expressed anger over her appearance after the event.
“We went out for dinner at a restaurant with a few others (7 of us in total, including my friend and her husband), and she texted me when I got home saying she was angry at me for ‘looking hot’ after she asked me to not wear makeup.”The OP turned to Reddit for guidance. Meanwhile, the husband’s behavior became increasingly inappropriate.
“He just liked an old Instagram pic from way back (bikini pic!). He is now blocked,” she updated. This action made it clear that the problem lay with the husband, not her appearance.
