I suppose it depends on past events. We all know there are some people who have a past reoccurring habit of cheating then there are those who don't. Its always a matter of trust. I myself can say I've been out with different male coworkers for lunch throughout my lifetime. I don't recall a time something came out of it. Also I must add I been out with Married male co workers and let me say NO WAY did I cross any lines. I do not dally with married men. I see a ring on a man and I look the other way. The ring says it all. N. O!
On another note... Going out with co workers after work as in catching an early dinner... I would say Is a no no. Dinner is a little more intimate and there's more time to linger so I wouldn't to be comfortable with that. I have had dinner with a coworker that ended up much later to result in us dating (again he was single though). I had a co worker I had a couple of dinners with and we ended up married.

During my working life I have only ever gotten on better with male work colleagues than with female.
The issues I've had are next to none.
Simply because they may be married or single whilst I for the longest time was in a relationship.
So I understand the boundaries of work colleague, friend, boyfriend and husband.
I conduct myself in a way that is open to friendship but not lenient on cheating

Here's the deal... my wife knows that if she starts flirting/spending alone time with dudes who want to bang her, that I'm perfectly capable & willing to take hot women out to lunch too. We both agree not to go there because it's better for our relationship. Just because you can do something doesn't mean you should. Of course, each relationship is different. Some guys are cucks like Will Smith. Mileage varies.

I don't have any problem with it. My wife often does since her designer is a man (she's a book editor). He's also happily married if that matters and we also hang out together sometimes although I don't mind either way.

I don't care as long as they are just friends at work. I trust my wife. She's allowed to have friends, even of the opposite sex.

Work lunch with work person? Okay. They're around them 8 hours a day already, I don't think that extra little bit is gonna make it any worse.

Not a problem, so long as they're eating lunch in public and not each other in private
