I went out for dinner and drinks with an old coworker. We hadn't seen each other in a couple years and wanted to catch up. He and I had always been friendly, nothing more.

Over dinner, I learned that he has been dating someone for the past couple of years and they have been living together in a rented condo in the suburbs. They aren't engaged, but are planning on becoming engaged soon. He said they had hit a couple of rocky spots in their relationship over the past year, but they went to couple's therapy and made real progress. I expressed how happy I was for him that they had worked it out.

He told me he could stay at him and his girlfriend's place, in the guest room, so I wouldn't have to drive tipsy. I was appreciative. I was looking forward to meeting the girlfriend, until he told me she was traveling in another state for work.

We got to his place, I went to bed in the guest room. I was almost asleep when he came in, got into bed with me and started trying to hook up with me. I was appalled that he would do something like this, in the very place that him and his girlfriend were living in together. I told him that what he was doing was inappropriate and that I'd have no part in it. Then I left, bided some time at a coffee shop, and got home safely.

My question is - would you tell the girlfriend what happened? I don't know her and have never met her, but I know how to get in touch with her. If I were in her shoes, I would want to know.

I would tell her, I know I'd want to know. I mean, she's about to be engaged to him soon.

I'd want to know if I was about to get engaged to a cheater.

Gee, I'm beginning to see why people keep their cell phones with them at all times. It would have been great to take a few pix of the interior of the condo to prove that you had been there.

It is in no way unacceptable. We were work FRIENDS. We had worked together for years with NO hint of sexual attraction on his part. If anything he was like a brother to me.

I love how you are painting ME as the bad guy. Classy.

I don't think that going to his place, knowing his GF is not around and tipsy was a good idea.

Bad for you to be in a such situation but hey you'll save a girl's future from being with a cheater. So please tell his

GF, poor girl is about to get engaged.

He had drinks, but he drove anyway? Do you know what happens to dudes' inhibitions under the influence of alcohol? Why did you have drinks, knowing you'd have to drive home?

There's something jivey about this story.

No. Keep your mouth shut. Walk away and never speak to the loser again. You have been involved enough with him.

No. We walked from the restaurant to his place. It's not far from the center of town.

I equated staying over his house with staying over the house of an old female coworker, or even a male cousin. I even thought he was gay for a period of time when we worked together. That is how comfortable I felt with this guy and how much I did not suspect he would ever try what he tried. I thought there was trust there.
