Giving in when asked
I am an occasional traveler for business. I spend about 50-75 nights away a year. At times, I have been approached by the opposite sex for more than just a drink. I guess I never thought too much about it until I realized that it happens more than what I thought is "normal". What do others do?

ARe you male or female? I'm a guy, and this *never* happens to me. And I spend more nights away from home than you do.

Anyone who is i) Male and ii) Has never had this happen before should go on a business trip to Nairobi and try Floridas night club.
Having a drink in any hotel bar open to the public in some countries (including 5* hotels) will also quite often attract the attention of ladies of negotiable affection.
