Personally Im not OK with it.. BUT if the trip is unavoidable and can affect his career negatively, I would make him go. I might facetime all throughout the night though, LOL. I do trust him but I would not like him being in that situation. Damn this question is complex.. hats off to the asker.. This is something to think about.
He knows he would buy his own room if his company wouldn't pay for it. No sweat.
u No reasonable employer sends a male and female employee away for an overnight trip and expects them to share a hotel room (unless they are married to each other or in a long term relatonship.) The premise of this question is bogus and my faith is challenged as soon as I hear this story from my partner.
u It's not a matter of trusting them, or not.
That's simply an unprofessional arrangement, and I'd have more questions about the business they work for, than I would about my partner's fidelity.

No, and I'm surprised that any company would do that. Thus is an easy case of sexual harassment in the workplace.
It’s weird, but not really an issue. We too often unnecessarily sexualize relationships because the people involved are opposite sex. If you look at same sex relationships through the same lens, are we now doubly threatened or does it put the first arrangement into perspective?
Personally, i think the bigger issue is being forced to share a room with someone i barely know, male or female. I would refuse unless they get me my own room. There are perfectly valid reasons that most couples take months or years before they move in together even after they’re physically intimate. Same goes for finding a suitable roommate. Yet companies think nothing of forcing virtual strangers to share two of the most personal spaces in the human experience, the bedroom and bathroom. All to save a buck. Pardon my french, but that’s smurfed up!
If I’m with someone I better be able to trust him. If I could not trust him I wouldn’t be with him. Otherwise. I wouldn’t really care. If he was going to cheat he would cheat anyways.
So. I wouldn’t fuss over it if I trusted him
I'm glad to see so far majority women also voted like I would in their shoes: I voted Nope. Lol. After all, i also like how that says a lot to me as a straight man, hmm. Interesting poll so far. Anyways, but I also wonder if that speaks on deeper levels about generally or about individuals. Ah well. I know I'm single so I'm good
Babe i need you to put this body cam on
This would not happen. No company would do this because there is too much liability on the line, especially if the woman says something was done to her.
To answer the question, I would probably NOT be ok with this. If it came down to it, I would pay out of my own pocket to ensure she got her own room. It is him I would not trust, not her
If you asked me this a few months ago, I would say I would be fine with it because I trusted him completely.
but recently I found out that he has been unfaithful in the past so tbh I’m not so sure the trust is the same right now 🤠
I trust him enough that I don’t think he would do anything but I think I would feel uneasy while he was away. (He’s bisexual so gender or the coworker wouldn’t matter either)
When I worked in New York my company was always explicit that no one had to share a room with a coworker of the opposite sex unless they wanted to. I think that’s the standard in the business world today.
u moved it to the right category...
as for your question, yes... the trust in my partner would not be threatened by this
and my partner's integrity would not be just gone, because of a room situation
not an issue whatsoever
Not okay for me, even if they were going alone. Multiple times when answering on here about things I don't want in a partner, them having a job that requires travel away from home for days is one of the things that I won't accept.
I have a hard time believing pany company would put two employees of the opposite sex in the same room. Liability issues, etc. Hell, when I traveled with my company we all had our own rooms.
this is something that a company would never allow, and its also something my boyfriend wouldn't allow anyway.
From a legal point, in my land the company never puts opposite sex peps in a shared room🤷♀️ so that would already be wrong and awkward
I would trust my man but never trust a hoe.. hahaha
Absolutely not ok with me. I don't care if she's 95 and ugly... Nope.
I’d be SO passed! Not with my spouse but with the company…
If it's work related they should have separate rooms. End of discussion.
No one would be OK with that
Why does everybody on GaG have such insecurities and trust issues?
a complete NO, its Morality vs Monetary. Ii guess each one's ethos is rightly placed.
