Staff agency girl question...

[Earendil]

I don't know how lesser men deal with it, but I have no problem being friends with females. They are in fact some of my best friends.

The only reason I would turn down an invitation such as that is if I knew she thought it was going to be romantic. Otherwise I would use it as an opportunity to network and perhaps find a friend.

And personally, I love hearing that another guy (in a job interview sense) is recommended by a female. I have no problem figuring out how a guy treats another guy (since I am one) but it speaks some to character and attitude how he treats females. Go for the networking, stay for the food.

Unless of course your gf is a jealous ass bitch, in which case stay away from this lunch invite...long enough to break up with your bitch.

Welcome to the real world. Lunches dont mean shit. Dinners rarely mean shit anymore.

Man, you must be an ugly SOB. Unless it's a good friend, or someone who works with me directly, lunches/ dinners Always lead to trouble.

sub'ed *makes popcorn*

Wouldn't the flip side to this be that if you're sexy SOB that you can't help but go to bed with every woman you meet?

Ugly or hot, if a girl comes on to you it's your own damn will power to resist. And as I said, girls male awesome friends.

Staffing agencies are sales people (both in terms of to businesses who want to recruit using them, and to people who want work). She wants repeat business if you need another job or referrals from your friends. Lunch is probably even part of standard protocol.

If a girl being nice to you is awkward, have you considered you're awkward?

How many times did you think a girl in hospitality, front desk check-in girl or waitress, was hitting on you??

I met a girl at my company last week within a networking thing and exchanged some emails later to keep in contact. My lady knows and supports this, since hell, I mentioned they are studying the same stuff. How do you expect networking to work if you don't feel comfortable communicating or just having lunch with a member of the opposite sex? Have you considered her perspective? She successfully landed you a job and wants to keep in touch and probably ask you while in person (so she doesn't seem like using you) if any of your friends need help finding a job.

lulz.

i really dont get the big deal about getting food with someone. i go out to dinner or lunch with people that are in relationships or when im in a relationship all the time. going out for food does not imply sex comes afterwards.

i can see how it could be an issue, but that's only if you hide it from your gf.

Since it is Friday, I'll ask. How were the tacos?

That is because you are one of R3vlimited's most handsome members.

As opposed to most handsome homeless members, which e30frosh still has the reigning title to.

No homo.

free lunch. take it.

lunch is not a date, knock it off as networking.

Concur, its not common to go back to your place and fuck after lunch. Like said if she was really after you it would have been dinner on a Saturday. This sounds more like she is just following up on placements.

Seriously? The fact that you asked means that you are not stupid enough to do that. People cheat on people every day, and most of them didn't meet the person with whom they cheated looking for trouble. It starts off as a "free lunch" and turns into "you're the only guy I can talk to like this" and then "Man my girlfriend never compliments me like you do" and finally "can I put it in your butt?"

Get the fuck outta there before starting threads about the cool agency chick turns into having to move and find a new set of friends and an angry jealous bitch trashing your name.

You better hope your girlfriend isn't on blunttech.com talking about the hot parts guy and how he just wants to take her to the Nascar race.....

Is that the way it started with your mom? :loco:

Seriously, OP, I guess it's up to you to decide if you're the kind of man that can talk with a female and not helplessly end up in her bed or not. I seem to be seeing two kinds of people here, the well adjusted, and the helpless. Decide which of the two you are.

After you've answered that one, decide if your gf will mind by telling her you are doing a lunch thing. Relationships are all about trust. I could go to lunch with some chick from work and casually tell my gf about it later. As long as she doesn't find out I've been going to lunch with her every day for a month and neglecting to mention this interesting fact, I'm cool. Some people don't have that kind of trust, either in their relationship, or in themselves.

Uhm...Yeah, I would. Showing your appreciation for what someone does for you has always been a given for me. It's only right

This is true. Let's talk some more about how damned attractive I am!
OP go out with her. You need to heed my advice: Be upbeat, confident and handle youself with class around her. Be sensitive to her needs but let her know that at any given point she would be stupid not to let you put your penis inside her. Once a chick sees all these things, she will realize lunch was a mistake and the horizontal mambo should have been on the menu.

[Wh33lhop]

OP, what happened? Is she a member of your own personal stuffing agency or what?
