Today, I found out that my husband's secretary named her new baby boy after my husband. Everyone at the office thinks it's funny. My husband says it's a coincidence. FML

It's not.

OP, as long as "Jr." isn't attached to that, I think you're fine.

I your husband's name common? If its common, then it just might be a coincidence. Otherwise, how long has she been his secretary? How long has your husband known her? If they've known each other for long enough, have you had suspicions of him cheating on you? Has he needed to stay later than normal before? Gone out "shopping" or "to see friends" without you for long periods of time? Does the baby look like the secretary's boyfriend/husband; like your husband; or like both?

Nah, I don't buy the 'it's his kid' scenario. If she's smart enough to hide the hypothetical affair, why would she be so dumb as to do something as obvious as name the kid after him? I agree that it's pretty thoughtless on her part - there's no way that would go down well - but I don't think it's evidence of an affair.

A woman's intuition is normally right. Let us hope it's not correct this time. =/

#69, that's such bs. a woman's intuition is no better nor worse than a man's and both are pretty bad in emotional situations.

I know of a secretary who would be receiving my most unnerving stinkeye. It depends though - is it a common name or did she intentionally name it after him for disrespectful (toward you) reasons? If so, I would find all sorts of (nonillegal) ways to make her want to rethink that babyname decision.

You'd know something was going on if it was a new baby girl.

that's dedication

Just name your next kid after your husband's brother.
