Jesus i bet her husband is scared to ask for sex, he probably always says it in jest just incase she gets offended. She seems the type to attend militant feminist rallys, wearing stockings and suspenders and getting massivley offended when a bloke looks at her because she should be able to wear whatever she wants as it doesnt give a man the right to treat her as a sexual object. Muppet.

Regardless of gender people should be able to go about their life without being harassed. There's a fundamental difference between striking up polite conversation and tracking someone down (with or without privileged information). Having to take the behaviour of others into consideration when going about your daily business is completely unfair. Attractive people should not need to understand that by going out in public they're soliciting this sort of behaviour.

I can understand sheltered teenage boys with no understanding of the real world thinking this is acceptable, but real world adults? Some of the replies to this thread read like parody.

I doubt he used bank systems to find her details. He would see what her name was just from her simply visiting the bank. He knows what her town is so a simple FB search of her name and hey presto. Bit of innocent FB stalking, we're all guilty of that.

Do you think any of your customers would find it acceptable if one of your employees were to track them down on Facebook after visiting your store because they look great in your products? Do you think any of your customers would be comfortable with an employee telling them they're gorgeous and asking for their number?

It is a ridiculous over the top reaction rubber stamped with opportunism.

Well it depends if she was actually harassed, saying to someone they a good looking and maybe available is surely normal, otherwise how do partnerships/ relationships get struck???plus it was through a open to the public social media platform that is hardly rocket science to crack.

if this all it is which seems to be the case due to a lack of anything of note coming from the accuser then the situation is ridiculous and a waste of everyone's time

People have different thresholds of 'harassment'.

I know somebody who was appalled when I pointed out that her sort-code and account number were on every cheque that she had ever written.

Sometimes, 'intrusive public knowledge' is just part of being in society.

Offence can only be taken - not given.

I don't understand why he would try to contact a married woman unless she was flirting with him and he might have misread the situation. I still think she is an attention seeker.

I agree. She is an attention-seeking opportunistic, transparent waste of forum time. I hope he does not get sacked and HSBC withdraw their shut-ya-gob offer of £250. I also hope that, in future, the gentleman in question learns to use the adjective 'stunnning' a little more advisedly.

The thing is now for every job she applies for a google and thats her done. I certainly wouldnt give a job that goes to the papers over something that clearly isnt a story.

But its not a story, guy flirts with woman on facebook, response could have been, thanks, I am flattered but I am married. That will have been the end of it in a normal world.

It's a story when a news site says it is

News sites are not democratic

News sites have agendas

News sites have owners with agendas

News site owners are rarely owners just to try and make money as most do not
