It was mentioned that three of the women who asked you 
out were married, did they ask you to lunch, dinner, a movie or
to have an illicit love affair with them?  Shouldn't married 
women or for that matter married men be allowed to ask people
they work with or are friends with to have lunch or perhaps
to dinner (their spouses included) without it implying to either
party than an affair is desired?  
Perhaps I was reading more into the comments here than was really
intended, but I sure received the impression that the three married
women who asked you out were only after ONE thing, that being 
an affair--If they indeed made their desires known before hand
than I feel you were justified in your reactions, but if not
maybe you missed out on some good friendships--I would have no
hesitation about accepting a lunch date with a married man with
whom I work, that may make me terribly naive but I hope not, I 
would go to the lunch and then if the man were after more I would
turn down future invitations--I can't help thinking that a lunch 
invitation would just mean the start of a friendship rather than an 
affair-
