Re: Girls, would U be ok with Ur hubby having a work lunch alone with a woman coworke
Shame , if it is coming from a woman 
I think you don’t have a total confidence in your man either - not as much as you put in words …
darling it is always two to tango - if your husband is so shareef and parsa then no other woman in this world would get his attention so why bother

Re: Girls, would U be ok with Ur hubby having a work lunch alone with a woman coworke
Let no man tell his wife nor any woman tell her husband that a one-to-one eat out with opposite gender is strictly business ... they would be lying. It is social - they would be friends or friend-like colleagues who do this ... people who do one-to-one eat outs do end up talking about personal things ... the only time I can gather it is business is when it might be a boss who is the other gender or you are the boss and a dinner date with work was scheduled.
The jealousy is not about whether the other half is doing anything naughty ... but rightly so ... some quality talk time is being spent with someone else and that is a valid cause for a bit of jealousy ... at least give the wife or husband a chance to join in and share that ...
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 "alone together". 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. There's 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.

^ but then how will the work get done? there are so many such situations at work.

Re: Girls, would U be ok with Ur hubby having a work lunch alone with a woman coworke
^@Wane - LOL, it's 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 ain't 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 don't trust em..

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 didn't. What we'll say instead is "it's not as if I chose to go" ... 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 don't you think?
Re: Girls, would U be ok with Ur hubby having a work lunch alone with a woman coworke

Re: Girls, would U be ok with Ur hubby having a work lunch alone with a woman coworke
thats a nap :)
a kip ... a snooze ... a bit of shut eye ... counting some sheep ....
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 ...

And if a molvi had said that you will go bonkers.
Re: Girls, would U be ok with Ur hubby having a work lunch alone with a woman coworke
Well, would you?
Yes.. and likewise he shouldn't have a problem with me having a work lunch alone with a male coworker..
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 lunches...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.

Yeah, I will but that's because I consider his sources unreliable.
