Kat/Kate, I read the Washington Post article about the man who complained his wife did not trust him on a trip with his younger female associate. Unfortunately, men, given the opportunity, will dip their pens into the company’s inkwell, and even though this schlub may be true to his wife, most men will want to sample different women in bed, and what better chance there is to get familiar with each other then when they are both on the road together. So I feel bad for him b/c his wife does not trust him, but I wouldn’t either, particularly when the female companion is cute and younger, which often leads to very $loppy $ex after a few drinks at the hotel bar. He also needs to worry about getting her pregnant if he is not careful, if she is under 40. FOOEY!
