    Does this seem right to you?
    Much like other people on here I have had a nagging feeling the last few months. My boyfriend of 2 years recently began training a female for a job that has been all male employees up until now. He is her supervisor. About two months ago my boyfriend went to a card game with buddies from work. Up until this point there had never been any females. My boyfriend said there shouldn't be any women, it was a man thing. She was invited (supposedly by the guy who hosted it). Apparently the seating is chosen for you and she got seated by my boyfriend. She was out of the card game early but remained there for the remainder of the time my boyfriend was in the game. During the entire game any time he was out of beer she got up and got him one. She did not ask any of the other men if they wanted one, just got him one. He said he never asked her to. But he also let her do it all night. His excuse is that he was drinking and didn't really even notice it. They also walked out of the game/party at the same time. Mind you he told me all of this. Okay, he has always called me on the way home from these sort of things. Not this time. His excuse was that he was just trying to drive after drinking so much and he couldn[t talk because he was concentrating on his driving. All of the other times it was the same situation. And he always wanted to talk to me so I could keep him alert. Why all of the sudden was this different. I had left him several texts and called him numerous times that evening and I never received any response. When we talked the next day I have to say I was livid. I believe that he disrespected me, our relationship and his position as her supervisor. I ask him what he thought all of the other men thought about this going on all night. He said he was sure no one thought anything of it except when they walked out together maybe that didn't look right. He would not admit that there was anything wrong in it. I got on Facebook and posted something as if I was doing it for someone else and received 22 responses and there were NO responses in his favor for this situation. Only then did he admit that maybe it was wrong that she catered to him and only him all night. He still accepts no blame in this situation. I felt very uneasy that whole night and I have yet to shake the feeling that something more happened. I told him that I feel uncomfortable now about him working with her. And I ask him to please never let this happen again because I don't think it's right and it certainly isn't something I want to have to deal with again. He said "well if she gets seated by me I can't do anything to change that but I won't let her get me beer". Honestly, I don't believe that he wouldn't do it again. I ask him about her every once in a while about how she is working out. He does nothing but sing her praises. Says he'd take 3 or 4 of her over the men he has. This after he originally told me that job was no place for a woman. I even had to cut him off the other day because he kept going on about her. Yes, I shouldn't have asked but it was pretty enlightening to hear the way he spoke about her. Okay, what do you all think?
