Yeah, sure. Most of them were friendships through business.
Well at work, I keep it neck-up at all times. I also don't share too much. It helps that I'm a traveling consultant, so I don't say anywhere for a long period.
I do have to say that some women can be irresponsible in that regard. They try to pry out personal information, or even try to find out if you find them attractive, and if they ever do, they are a tad too loose with that information. I learned that many years ago, and how to avoid it. One tactic is never to be alone in any area with another woman, including in a vehicle.
I think it also has to do with being a traveling consultant. They also see no strings attached. A lot of women like the thrill of spontaneous, to their own detriment. Men do too, but it seems more men are willing to admit it than women. It seems a lot of women, far too many, are looking for acceptance from any man, attractive or not. And sometimes they really hurt men who do find them attractive with that non-sense (again, "too loose" with a guy's comments who was just being nice, not lustful).
It's one of the reasons I love my wife. She is more into the spontaneous of one lover, instead of seeking the approval of other men. She maintains contentment with knowing I will never stray, and she doesn't need approval from other men. That's the only thing I can chalk it up to, women seeking approval of other men that they are desirable. Not all women, but far too many that aren't honest with themselves. And a lot of that has to do with our media, especially in the US, women constantly being bombarded with messages for approval, judgement and other things.
I guess that's why I've always been into unique beauties. They learned early on that approval is a crapshoot, with some guys thinking they are the most beautiful women in the world, while other guys point out every little flaw and outcast attribute that the media says just makes them overall ugly. Kinda reminds me of the movie
Shallow Gal where Jason Alexander's character won't like an extremely beautiful woman because of one toe being longer than another.
So many unreal and unbelievably beautiful women and bodies out there that don't believe they are attractive, and have to be reminded because others are reminding them they are not. It's destructive, especially women on women. I guess that's why I just don't bother, and am very glad I met my wife. Women today (along with men as well) are even worse. I'm glad I dated young (and married young so I didn't have to date any more), before a lot of that bullshit set in with my dates.
