Social media can make relationships infinitely messier when one half of the couple gets a little too friendly.

One woman saw her husband’s messages with a supposed business partner, but when something felt off, she stepped in with a message of her own. She wasn’t expecting to face backlash, and now she’s wondering if she overreacted.

You’ll want to read on for this one.

AITAH for throwing salt in my husband’s game?

My husband of 18 years (38) and I (39) were waiting in a room today, and he brought up something he remembered from many months ago.

He mentioned that a potential business colleague had commented on one of his Facebook posts.

They exchanged a few messages, and she said she liked many of his posts—usually funny or interesting reposts—and suggested they meet up for lunch since they seem to have a lot in common.

She decided to play it lighthearted.

I chimed in with a little “e-hem” and a lighthearted emoji, basically teasing playfully and yes implying that he was married.

It seemed harmless to me.

However, my husband then said she never commented or interacted with his posts again.

He asked me not to comment like that again because it might impact his business—he’s not involved in her business at all, and he’s told me he’d prefer not to do that business anymore.

But to her, it seemed like way more than that.

Honestly, it seemed like they were setting up a date, and I just made a silly, joking comment.

I don’t really feel guilty about it, but I also wonder if I was being unfair or TAH.

AITA for my “ahem?”

Sometimes an emoji says all that needs to be said. How did Reddit readers react?

It’s clear something was going on here.

They did plan to meet, but not about business.

This user doesn’t feel optimistic about her husband’s intentions.

This commenter has a few things they need to clear up.

That other woman probably wasn’t in it just for the business.
