Didn't think anything of it until later in the conversation she finds out I'm spoken for and is almost appalled that I offered her a ride. Says it's not right to give other ladies rides if I'm 'in a relationship'. Damn I didn't know that was in the instruction manual!

You are spoken for and you offered to give her a ride, interesting, you like to live dangerously, don't you.

Pretty much, because there are no upsides to it and almost a guaranteed downside, as the OP found out.

Oh well, no harm no foul, at least from my guy perspective.

No, I don't! Just naive I guess. I never thought of a ride on my bike as being something intimate. Just thought I was being nice. So in the future I'm going to keep things simple....GF and family only!

You better be wearing a full face with chin guard if that ever happens.

30 years and 3 marriages ago I would put a girl on my bike in a hot second. It takes me a while to learn the rules but this is what I've gathered up over the years: If the thought even crosses your mind for an instant that the OL "might get mad", chances are she will.

first ride I ever gave anyone the first night I picked up my first ever Harley was to a girl at a party who was NOT my girlfriend. THAT did not end well but she married me anyway, still comes up every now and then after 36 years lol..
