DEAR ABBY: My husband and I know a guy from work I’ll call “Jon.” His girlfriend comes over whenever he does. She doesn’t seem at all interested in being my friend, but she talks to my husband for hours on end. When I try to have a conversation with her, she ignores me.

I tried to bond with her. She came over and wanted to cook in my kitchen, but whenever I volunteered to help her, she asked for my husband to help her instead. She sits by him any chance she can get and tries to make these inside jokes with him. It’s beginning to upset me because she acts like I don’t exist. It makes me feel like I’m a third wheel in my own home.
