Is it okay for my boyfriend to have a girls personal number from work?

[Anonymous]

Only recently have I found out that he has her number but I feel some sort of way but don’t want to say anything to make either me or him upset. I do work with the opposite but I don’t have any intention for asking of their number yet he has her personal number. On a few occasions he has told me, he doesn’t work with her but someone they seem to be in conversation. I have no way around this or I’m not sure what to do. I don’t want him going further but that I’m not even sure. Do I have a right to be upset

Yes it’s fine. What would be wrong w that. I have a number of female co-workers’ numbers. Maybe to let them know I’m going to be late, or sick so I won’t be in. Maybe I can ask them to check something for me before I get to work that needs to be addressed right away. Maybe I ask them if they can work for me on a certain day. There’s a lot of reasons. I’ve given a girl a ride to work before when she had car issues.

It isn’t necessarily sinister. I have the personal phone numbers of a few of my female colleagues and it’s just professional.

You said a girl from work but they don't work together. What do you mean? They have the same employer but don't interact at work?

He told me they don’t work together when I asked who number it was but before he told me they didn’t work together

A lot of jobs require having coworker, boss, or employee cell numbers.

Yes, he works to pays all your bills. Let the man have some fun.
