My Husband’s Coworker Is Starting to Cross Boundaries, and It’s Making Me Uneasy

Me (F27) and my husband (M34) have been married for 3 years but were dating 4 years prior. He recently got a promotion in his company and moved to a different department. In this department, he recently started interacting with a colleague (F24). I dislike her and have from the start.

Every time I’m there, she makes sure to call him her work husband. Or she will do simple things such as making him food or giving him extra tight hugs.

One time, I got up at 6 a.m. to prepare my husband’s favorite meal for him to take to work. But when he came home, he handed the food back to me and explained that his young female coworker had already brought him something to eat. He said he didn’t want to be rude, so he accepted it. Hearing this made my blood boil.
The next morning, he came downstairs to me making breakfast and asked me where his lunch was. I said I didn’t make him one because it was going to go to waste anyway. He started arguing that I was being petty over a little thing. But I tried to discuss how I felt, and he went over it.

But ever since then, this has been happening every day. It’s started to get annoying. Till today, I decided not to make him lunch.
