[ QUOTE ]
There are certain things that are just plain inappropriate when you're in a relationship: dining out (one on one) with a "friend" of the opposite sex is one of them. Sure there are exceptions, and it can be completely innocent, but on the whole it's just not respectful of your significant other.

[/ QUOTE ]Katy was talking about having lunch once a week. That seems to be different from 'dining out.' I have lunch with female colleagues all the time at my previous job. It's completely meaningless. Just friends/co-workers having lunch together.

Throughout my 11 year marriage, I've had to deal with this problem because it's always easier for me to form friendships with women then with men. So my wife always had to deal with the fact that I hung out with women or had lunch with them. But just because I'm having lunch with a woman, or having a conversation with a woman doesn't mean that it will lead to anything.
