How will you react if....

It does sound disrespectful but I don't know the whole story maybe there is a reason he got her number but if he hasn't mentioned it to you or seems to be hiding it then I wouldn't be too happy about it.

Not just disrespectful, but i wouldnt trust him in this matter. I sure if it would be the contrary he wouldnt like you to go talking to a guy and keep his number!

If it were me he wouldn't have time to talk to her for that long. I would have went over and found out what was going on. And if he tood her number I would have asked why and if the answer didn't satisfy me I would call her myself. I would have never sat there and took something like that. My husband knows I'm not going to do anything like that to him and he's not going to do it to me. It's called respect.

I was going to respond similar to others. I would say you need to know the whole situation before jumping to conclusions. Not that I would appreciate my husband out talking to some other woman for an entire party a block away, but in the same sense, it would depend on who she was, what they were talking about, etc. But then what if we were on our drive home and he says so I was talking to this woman, she's an executive at ____ company and thinks she can get me a great position so she was telling me about the job and benefits and what to do to apply so I took her number and am supposed to call on Monday -- then wouldn't you feel like a heel getting on his case about it. It could be any number of situations. We'd like to buy a house soon, what if she's a broker or realtor and is giving him some great housing information and he took her number so we could work with her. What if she was friends with his sibling who has passed and they were talking about old times. I just don't think anyone should jump to any conclusions since you just never know what actually happened. Now, if he comes back and you ask who that was and he just says, oh some girl, then I'd question it.

Getting mad because your partner talks to someone seems pretty insecure to me. Husbands & wives aren't our property, they're adults too & should be able to speak to whomever they wish. As far as getting her number, is there a reason he needed her number? My partner is a tattoo artist, if someone gave him her number, chances are it's because they want a tattoo. Or maybe our kids played together at this party & they're arranging another time for the kids to get together. Until or unless I saw something different, I'd assume it was innocent.

disrespectful is not the word.. the word is "Pickled Pee Pee" and that is what my hubby would have if he chatted up some floozy and got her number. I have no problem with friendliness, but chatting up someone he doesn't even know & getting her number... I don't think so.

I'd be pretty ticked off at him. Yes, it is extremely disrespectful, and I can't imagine that you didn't go over to the car and introduce yourself as his wife.

If I was in this situation I would first ask for his explaination. Maybe they were talking about work or something like that, that would validate him taking her number. If you trust your husband it shouldn't be a problem if he has a long conversation with a female, whether he knows them or not. It's a matter of security in your relationship.
