Should a married man & female coworker email each other all day?

If the emails are just banter back %26amp; forth, with no flirting whatsoever. We work together and I see nothing wrong with it, unless the emails were overtly flirty. Thx.Should a married man %26amp; female coworker email each other all day?
The very fact that you ask this question means that you know or you been told that its not accepted behavior. Initially all affairs start with just sharing emails and jokes with out much flirting and showing more concern. Later the emails progress to 'i care for you' 'my best friend' 'you made my day' etc. All them mostly forwarded emails but as each day goes by there is some kind of attachment or longing that builds up. A day without emailing will make you feel incomplete. This attachment will develop to feelings in a matter of no time. Remember that the more you communicate with a person the more likely you are going to get attached or attracted to them. Finally you start sharing emotional things like whats bothering you or why you are sad or angry and that will lead to emotional attachment. Once that formed then you have a scenario where you have an office spouse(you might not be physical with him but emotionally you feel attached) and you find that you can share more him that your spouse It will be too late before you realize what happened. Can you share the fact that you talk or email this guy the whole day with your spouse(and be honest don't tell him you just send him a email a day) and not feel guilty about it. My guess is you feel he doesn't need to know as there is nothing going on.Should a married man %26amp; female coworker email each other all day?
Is this a secret for the mans wife?





If it is just a business based relationship, then no, there is no problem with it. But if he is hinting other feelings at you and he's married, then I would be the one to say hey this needs to stop. If it's just business than fine...but if there's any possibility that there's more....then lay off the emails.
All you have to do is reverse the situation. Think If you were married and a woman was innocently emailing your husband back and forward all day. Or if you had a grown daughter who had a husband emailing one of his coworkers all day? doesn't seem so innocent even if it starts out that way!
Well,if there is NO flirting,No personal personal PERSONAL stuff,or personal questions...and it's all about buisness,and saying hi. Then it's totally ok.
nothing wrong with the emails... unless they get flirty... then the fun really starts...





and it leads to sex in the workplace... :D
hmmm. I don't know...ask his wife :)
