My male partner of two years and I, both in our late 60s, have recently attended parties where married female friends have been extremely affectionate towards my partner, coming on to him big time and touching him.
He’s a very kind, happy man and interested in others, so maybe women whose husbands are no longer interested in them want to flirt for his attention and affection. Or perhaps they are jealous – who knows? I find their behaviour disrespectful and difficult to cope with. I thought they were my friends, and I would never behave in this way. Can you suggest how I deal with this without actually being outright rude?
