Married co-worker wants to take me to dinner and a show?

A female United States age 51-59, *stdunno writes:

Okay so I started interning at a newspaper after last month. A web designer guy stopped by the office once to meet my boss. Afterward he annoyed me for 30 minutes asking for advice about his mistress!!! He eventually left but he has been calling the office to speak to me since and today he asked me to go to up to NYC to the River Cafe and see a show and then he'd drive me back to Philly.

I said no way , but he assured me he loves his mistress (vomit!) and that he just wants to be friends but in the next breath he says that he will get me work writing for a website he runs as my goal is to be a journalist.

Help me here , is this guy just trying to get in my pants or maybe make his mistress jealous? Even if his intentions were pure I don't think I could let a man drive me to the city and pay for meals and shows that I could never afford. The dynamic would be weird.

He obviously just wants to use you for sex. Just be honest with yourself regarding what you know he is after and that way there will not be any surprises.

It sounds to me that he's trying to bribe you and wants to make you his new mistress. The guy sounds like a pig, and I'm pretty sure you know that (which is good). I would decline, just let him know that you don't feel it would be very professional and that is how things need to stay.

in my opinion he is just trying to get in your pants. Do not believe anything he tells you and certainly do not allow him to take you to dinner and a show or 'help' you with anything that will cause you to feel indebted to him. He's a player and you're the new girl!

busy04 agony auntWhy don't you just ignore him?

Whatever the case, don't get involved with him!

Simple as that, if you don't start nothing, there won't be nothing!

And how could a man like that have "pure" intentions?????? Think about it!
