I was looking at an episode of the king of queens, where Carrie had a male co-worker and they were so close that they made a longstanding joke they they were husband and wife. For those of you who never saw the show, Carrie is married to Doug. Would you ever have a pretend husband or wife at work? How would you deal with it if your significant other had one?

I would most certainly not take a fake husband at work or anywhere else for that matter. One husband is enough already LOL..Kidding! No, but seriously, i am so proud of my hubby, i couldn't even if i wanted to, cuz wherever i go, people know i am married to this great guy named Carlos!

I think I may have done it when I was younger for a joke or something but not if I was with another person or married. If you are truly in love with someone or married, then the joke wouldn't be very funny to your significant other at all. If my husband played a joke like that at work, I would be offended by it because I would not want him to feel that close to another woman to be able to pretend they are married. they have to like each other somewhat to even go as far as pretending it.

Nope, that's not something I do. The REAL husband that I have is all I ever need, and nothing that could happen in life owuld make me want to take a "pretend" husband to work with me. An interesting question, though.
