Re: Girls, would U be ok with Ur hubby having a work lunch alone with a woman coworke
but then we can say the same for any situation at work where people from both genders are required to work together. why single out lunch? For example, travelling together for business or working together on a specific project as a two person team. these situations will demand the two people to be āalone togetherā. and the possibility of quality talk time and getting insights into personal lives is always there. if you are a professional, you cannot just say no to avoid such situations.

^Given that we are polygamous by nature, sometimes circumstances make it impossible to remain strictly professional. Thereās a reason that a lot of men and women get infatuated with people at work. One-on-one lunches and traveling alone encourage emotional affairs and occasional flings. I will never take that chance and neither will he.. It would be very hard to convince my husband that a mere lunch at Apple bees with this new 25 year old hot guy at work was strictly business.

^@Wane - LOL, itās very rare for companies to send a man and a woman on the same business trip unless they know them too well or they have no other choice. Companies do their best to avoid these awkward trips. Usually the bosses know who has the hots for who and will never send them together on a business trip. The know darn well the work aināt getting done.
@Naabigh - that may be. His work involves dealing with women customers a lot. He has women hitting on him all the time. I donāt trust em..
Re: Girls, would U be ok with Ur hubby having a work lunch alone with a woman coworke
The difference probably is that people choose to have lunch with the other person but not necessarily choose to go with the co-worker ⦠unless of course you have pulled a few strings subconsciously to rig such situations where you have to go out as a pair. It is the enemy within us. We say oh it is business ⦠but we might not say ⦠I had a choice to refuse, but I didnāt. What weāll say instead is āitās not as if I chose to goā ⦠LOL.
Deep down inside people have to admit there is something risque in doing this and that is part of the appeal. In reality nothing comes of it ⦠but the thoughts do wander and the spouse does have a right over our wandering thoughts donāt you think?

a kip ⦠a snooze ⦠a bit of shut eye ⦠counting some sheep ā¦
Oh wait a sec ⦠are you being crudely metaphorical? I hope you are not implying that sleep = two people required and nap = one person required thing ā¦
Re: Girls, would U be ok with Ur hubby having a work lunch alone with a woman coworke
I do go out for work lunch sometimes with my female co-workers. And i keep it strickly business..now if i were to go out with them for dinner or friendly lunchesā¦then i will probably try to have discussion with them about different things. Now if i were married, for sanctity of my wife..i would only keep it professional if it is work related.
