Need some help /adv/, mid 40s, doing very well in my career. Hire a mid 20s woman for my team. She's smart, good skills and hard worker. Good to have her on board.
But, she's flirting. A lot. With me. It's a problem.
We have a business trip in 2 weeks where she's coming. Following up on any of this is out of the question. I'm not fucking my career for a fling with a woman half my age. Here's the question:
How do I quietly discourage her without having a sit down conversation or telling her no when she tries something?
She's a good employee and I don't want her to feel awkward. But this needs to stop
>hiring women
>ever
You brought this on yourself
Fuck sake. Hiring a YOUNGER woman? Please... I'm pretty sure it's easy to say that's bullshit
Is she flirting with you specifically or everyone? She could just have a flirtatious personality and not mean anything by it. Hard to tell without some examples.
Either way just tell her that you don't think its very appropriate. Don't strait up tell her to stop but make it clear that what she is doing is not correct and not appreciated.

Me specifically. Hoping to avoid the direct convo. Maybe you're right. do it early and keep it quick. Get it over with
Mention a SO or something.
If desperate tell her you're gay.

>implying mentioning having a wife isn't going to make her more thirsty for OPs mature, successful business man cock
The gay thing might be the move if you're too much of a pussy to tell her to just cut shit out.

Act creepy around her and start wearing odd cloths or anime shirts.

Married. But we're splitting up. It's pretty well known in the office. Maybe let it out we're splitting cause I'm gay? Kinda funny in a weird way

That could backfire. She will make you kiss other men in front of her to prove it.

Older white dude not wanting to make younger woman feel awkward isn't being a pussy. It's self preservation in the current fucking environment. Another reason I want this to quietly / go away...
>>18155096
She can't MAKE me do shit. But it's going in a bad direction. No doubt
Not to her face, but within her hearing, tell someone else a quick story about how your 40-something "cousin" has been dating a 20-something girl and how you and the whole family finds it super disturbing and pathetic.

You can tell someone to cut something out directly without making them "uncomfortable" or whatever that means.
>>18155103
But just go with this since you're afraid of confrontation.

That IS a good idea..:

Woman scorned. Doesn't matter how / what you SAY. Matters how she TAKES IT. If you don't know that, you'll learn.
>>18155043
be smart. make a distance with her. observe things she like about you and do the opposite.
>all these people recommending to play mind games
The fuck is this shit? You are her employer so act like it and tell her to stop in a professional manner. Don't suddenly start acting differently and calling yourself gay and wearing anime shirts.
>>18155043
email, HR department, etc. How are you 40?
