You know what they say: Everyone looks better under club lighting. This means the guy who’s been buying you drinks all night, laughs at all your jokes and knows just what to say, might not be the catch you think he is in the morning. Give him your number and give it some time.
Right now, to you, he’s the finest man to ever walk the halls at your job, but if you sleep with him those friendly, flirty moments you look forward to could easily become awkward ones you’d rather avoid. Conventional wisdom tell us that mixing business with pleasure is always a no-no. Is he worth losing focus at your job—or worse, picking up a reputation you can’t shake?
You’ve met this guy before. Sometimes he calls, sometimes he doesn’t. Some dates are great, while others, well, not so much. There’s nothing consistent about his behavior, but it’s usually the chemistry between you that keeps you taking his calls. Word to the wise: Send him to voicemail next time. Mr. dependable is out there, we promise.
Sleeping with a man to fill a need or void while your heart is mourning love lost elsewhere is a bad, bad idea. It should go without saying, but let’s be honest, it’s the most tempting cure for heartbreak — even if you know it won’t work. Fight the urge to use one man to help you get your mind off of another. You’ll both get hurt in the end.
