If a secret admirer...you sure wouldn't leave cologne!

Place three objects on your desk, along with a pencil and a chart for rating them. By Monday you'll have your answer:
  • clean shirt
  • Bar of soap
  • Pack of condoms

I think we have to develop a collective problem solving approach on this board.
Bringing problems to the Collective Brain Trust has been going on for some time, but what if you are faced with a situation which needs immediate consideration.
We all need to learn to Solve Like A Pelican. SLAP!
(not to be confused with cratch slappin')

It is weird. It didn't even occur to me upon finding it that is could be hygiene related. You guys certainly opened my eyes to that possibility. I cannot fathom that that is the case. Nope, just some young thing hopelessly held under my powerful spell, not smell.

So I started an inventory of who it could be. Of the 30+ women in the company, at least half could crush me under their weight. A quarter are suffering hot flashes or are nearing retirement.
The other quarter, well, hmm.

Strange days, probably an innocent explanation for it.

Thanks for the amusing responses however most didn't answer whether they would tell the wifeypoo.

Not to throw this thread off but this behavior needs to be nipped in the bud.

Of course, if the office environment is consistent with this little mystery it is probably nothing. On the other hand...

Buy 20 bottles of Summers Eve and leave it on the desks of all of the females.

And yes, I would tell her in a second.

Put the keyboard down and slowly back away from the monitor, sir.
This is not going to end well.

Walk around with your “cock in a box” and see who’s birthday it is.

Of course, tell your wife.

I would.

I would teller her immediately.
I wouldn't find the right time, I'd just come out and tell her. (No beating around the bush)

If she freaks out, she's got the problem not you (unless you are in the habit of dangling things under her nose as a form of triangulation to get a response and keep her on her toes - thats not healthy)

WARNING:
I wasn't always this way, but I am now of the mindset that if a relationship is going to blow up over this sort of thing, better to blow it up immediately and take the short term pain long term gain. If you are in a long term relationship with an over the top jealous person, you may want to take protective measures first. If you have a healthy relationship, she will laugh (or call you stinky)


...in fact, in the spirit of defusing a potential situation with humor, I'd lead with the plausibility of stinky

definately tell the wife.

she is the only one with the blank check to tell you how it is anyways. my wife is the first to tell me.."ahem..maybe you should take a shower first".

love is a safe place.

Monday morning he'd bring in a fresh bighorn as a lunch present for everyone.
Dress the thing in the lobby where there is more room.

(later edit: ^uh sorry, maybe a little bit too exuberant a joke there. Had to one-up.)

if you have a heathy relationship, you both could joke about it. then tell her.
If she is in any way insecure... forget it ever happened.
