        Folks,


        Since we are on office matters of heart, what do you think if your married PRC (male) boss do the following :
        * Hold your hand while helping you cross the super busy street in China… maybe you look stressed as not used to illegal crossing
        * Asked for a hug from you when he is facing some challenges at work - I supposed this is more like emotional support since you know what he is going through ?

            Sign of impatience, bosses are typically impatient

            * Asked for a hug from you when he is facing some challenges at work - I supposed this is more like emotional support since you know what he is going through ?

              i will take a look at myself first.

              am i dressed appropriately? have i been too friendly with my words and body language? do i look like the very 随便 type?

              if not, :rant:

              as for the holding hand while crossing the road, well, i dont like physical contact with the opposite sex that much. dont know why but those western kissing on the cheeks greetings 90% out for me..

              once a male friend held my hand while we were attempting to cross robinson road, i freaked out and literally shook it off...both of us stunned...nearly had an accident.

                :hi5: same here. Adverse to physical contacts with opposite sex. Also do not enjoy seeing DH doing so. He knows & avoid but females these days very daring, like to take photo in all sorts of manner :razz:

                I remembered in my 20s, was tasked to escort a VIP to the stage during a company event. To my horror, he placed his hands on my waist. I think I stiffen up & the face turned all black & smelly. My HR + some others saw, I was never asked to help in such stuff again. :oops: 😆

                  There are other ways to help crossing a busy street. Like say, \"follow me, stay close to me. \" or if you are holding a handbag, he can hold a part of it and guide you across.

                  How abt a chocolate when feeling down? I find it weird a boss asking a hug from subordinate and vice versa.

                    valvestate:
                    I'm reluctant to post this but this has been bothering me for some days now and I would really appreciate it if you will take it easy on me, I guess I just need to vent out some matters that has been affecting me for some sleepless nights...


                    I work in multi national firm and was recently promoted as a Senior Lead that has the role to manage at least 20 people. Just barely a month ago, our company hired a new lady for our daily support. She's from PRC but has a wide background of language spoken which in some ways got me interested. She's smart but not that really pretty, slim, looks like Korean-Chinese and very composed, professional. As a lead, I need to support her to handle our clients and I was beginning to get drawn to her... I invited her for lunch for one time and it has started almost everyday since she also invites me even if I don't ask her... she's just sweet and talks very calmly, I feel so great whenever I'm with her. We talk about anything under the sun and I started randomly sending her some SMS in which she also responds sweetly. One of our lady personnel who's also a friend with this woman I'm referring to, told me that she always praise me because of I support her in our daily work ... yada yada..

                    Now, I can't stop thinking about her and looking at her FB pics. I just can't stop myself looking at her when I have some time in our office since she's just a few meters away from me... the problem is that I already have a wife and a kid 😞 There's actually no major issues between me and my wife aside that whenever we have a big quarrel, we don't really talk about how to resolve it and it will just fade away... we just talk it over sex and it will be ok again. Wifey also likes to boss over me... which I don't like since I'm the manager in our office for pete's sake! It affects my manhood and being the man of the house!

                    I'm thinking of just quitting the job since the temptation is really unbearable... this PRC lady's just living alone here in SG and with no BF and ..... I dunno.......... It's quite hard to get a job nowadays with the salary I will be expecting and my position. :sad: I dunno if she's just too kind with me because I'm her superior and what not...
                    Either u leave the company or she has to. Even if she's been transfer to another department, u still can c her. Also try not to join her for any meals anymore. There are a lot of temptation here, even in KSP, so must know what u're doing.

                    Man, U've a wife who has been carrying your baby for ten months. If guys will to give birth, they'll know how unbearable the pain is & the discomfort we mothers are having then.

                    In reverse, if your wife was tempted like u & elope, how will u feel???
