A few weeks have passed and everything is going well with your mark. You have a good relationship, no one at work seems to suspect the truth, and you both trust each other. It is now time to use that trust to convince your mark to engage in a little intra work sexual escapade. This may take a little convincing, but this step will show you how to convince your mark to get down and dirty while on the job and the optimal locations to engage in any act of depravity you desire without fear of getting caught. Keep your pants on a few minutes longer while we teach you the tried and true methods to turning your mark.
There will be a few underlying concerns that your mark will have. Luckily enough for you, they mirror the same concerns addressed in Step 7. If you are too lazy to look back to that step or ripped it out for the 10% discount to the Sizzler (which you had better not use on a date) we will appraise how to deal with these new problems as they come up.
First, your mark will be concerned about how the two of you will find enough time to be alone. If you do not work near each other then this step is much easier. Ten minutes (sorry ladies, not enough time for foreplay. As if there ever really is?) away from your cubicle may go unnoticed. One trick you may want to engage in is take some paperwork with you as you leave. It need not be anything important and look as if you are going to talk about it with someone. Discard it on your way back to make it appear you have resolved the issue. If you work near each other you have to worry about co-workers seeing you leave and arrive at the same time after an extended absence. In this case you have to stagger your departure and return times. This may leave a little less time for nookie, but as long as you get the job done, does how long it take really matter?
The next obvious worry is that the two of you may get caught. This is where picking a strategic location will come in handy. Many companies have at least one individual handicapped bathroom. This is an ideal location; by using the fan to mask your moaning you can engage in any act you choose plus have all the necessary clean up tools readily available to make yourselves presentable. Another good location is a closet that is not often used and can be locked or latched from the inside. If you really want to make the effort, you can see how often the janitors use their closets and after figuring out their schedules plan accordingly. Finally, the copy room always makes for an appealing choice. Anytime you have the chance to capture yourself fornicating a few thousand times is appealing. Avoid all peak hours and if there is a lock use it, with the excuse later that you were copying confidential documents, or simply blame someone else.
While these are good places to use, there are also spots that must be avoided. Elevators, while a tempting location are often equipped with cameras. Unless you want to be front page on the weekly newsletter you may want to choose a more wise location. Public bathrooms are also an exciting choice due to the potential fear of getting caught. As smart as you think you are, you will get caught, and then you will get fired. The last location to avoid is in your office (if you have one). Another tempt notwithstanding, any time you close your blinds on your office window and lock the door you are inviting rumors. Once the rumors start the romance will have to end, and then you will be closing your door and windows for a different reason during the day, and that is just sad.
Step 10: Breaking it off with your mark
So you have had your fun, and now you want out. The excitement of making it while the bathroom fan whirls no longer sends chills up and down your spine. There is a decent chance that your mark may be having the same feelings you are. However, since that would make your life easy it is likely that your break-up will be messy (the world is full of irony, isn't it?).
First, you should not engage in the break-up at work. The location you break up will always be a place that causes anguish to your mark and people will start to wonder why they begin to cry every time they need a glass of water. Second, you should try to make your mark feel that you still care for them but you think a friendship may be a batter option for right now. You may be obliged to spend a little time with them to prove you want to be their friend but each week you can wean them off a bit more. Finally, you should wait at least six months before attempting to engage in another SOR. If you do not, your mark may find out or catch you and your new partner in one of your old secret locations they now visit regularly to cry at. This will ruin things with your new SOR or get you fired for sexual harassment.
Your secret office romance has now ended, but what you ask should I do in case my mark does not accept things so easily. If you had properly done your homework hopefully this will not happen, but being the Casanova that you are anything could have changed in your mark over time. Your choices in action are limited to three choices; being nice, being yourself, or being downright mean and your actions depend on how they respond. If they simply wallow at work, start slacking off, and seem lost you should continue to talk to them as a friend and not cut them off completely. This will allow them to have a small connection with you and think one-day things may start up again (It is this type of delusion that will keep them from flipping out on you one day soon). If they are slightly crazy, sending you e-mails and coming to your cubicle a lot then you may have to play a little dirtier. Avoiding the person like Michael Jackson avoids women is a good start. If you can go about two weeks without any contact you should be in a safe zone and can return to your desk again. Remember to save all e-mails and phone calls in case the craziness continues. Finally, if they lose it all together and start writing you poetry, singing songs, hiring a twelve piece band to serenade you at your cubicle then you will have to play dirty. At some point in your relationship you probably discovered a few secrets about your mark that they would not want their co-workers to know. You must threaten to expose these secrets (assuming they don't have any on you) in addition to threatening to send out a mass e-mail of that roll of film you "promised" you would never get developed (It is a legal defense in court to say you had your fingers crossed at the time the promise was made). This should scare your mark into submission and allow you to continue your miserable 9-5 existence until you can start looking for your next Secret Office Romance.
