Some things you should consider if you plan on dating or trying to date women from work, so you don’t cross the line and do things that are inappropriate which could lead to you getting accused of sexual harassment at work. In this video-coaching newsletter, I discuss an email from a viewer who says a woman he took to lunch has recently accused him of sexual harassment at work. He met this woman on her first day with the company and he says he wanted to take her out before any other guy from the office had the chance to date her first. She was reluctant and turned him down, but he persisted and she relented. At lunch he ordered drinks, but she declined hers, so he drank both. He kissed her when they got back to the office and he assumed the date went well. He stopped by her desk at the end of the day to try and arrange a dinner date, but she was gone. The next morning when he got to work he went by her desk again, but she was not there. A few hours later, he got an email from Human Resources saying he was being accused of sexual harassment. He tried explaining himself to HR, but they suspended him for a week pending conclusion of their investigation. He comes off in his email as arrogant, entitled, condescending and contemptuous of women. I discuss where he went wrong, how he should have handled things differently and what he should do now in case he loses his job due to his inappropriate behavior. “Men should only date women who express enthusiasm and excitement when they extend their invitation for a date. Men should be gracious and chivalrous instead of obnoxious and forceful if women decline their invitations. This is especially true when it comes to the work environment. The reality is in todays corporate culture, if a man is accused of sexual harassment, he almost always will lose, even if he did nothing wrong. The lowest risk way to ask a woman out from work is to invite her to join you and other coworkers for drinks, dinner or social functions after hours. Then you can talk with her in a neutral environment and look for signs of attraction such as her touching you, sitting so close she is bumping into you, playing with her hair, exposing her neck, etc., before you kiss her, get her number, ask her for a date or invite her to join you elsewhere so the two of you can be alone. Always know your downside risk when it comes to dating or asking out women from work. Never risk more than you are willing or can afford to lose.” ~ Coach Corey Wayne Click the link below to make a donation via PayPal to support my work: https://www.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr?cmd=_s-xclick&hosted;_button_id=LKGTSSLYJ93J6 Click the link below to book phone/Skype or email coaching with me personally: http://www.understandingrelationships.com/products Click the link below to get my Kindle eBook: http://amzn.to/1Uh5djJ Click the link below to read my FREE self-help articles: http://www.understandingrelationships.com/ From my heart to yours, Corey Wayne
