Easier said than done or is it just my fantasy?

Yes, definitely a bad idea.

The fact that you have to ask should be your answer.

Happens all the time. Always male associates and female interns. Both are using each other.

Bruh XD

Fantasy??? Dude, literally every associate is hitting on interns and many are ▮▮▮ ‘em. You don’t need to read past LI threads: just ask at any law school. In today’s neoliberal world sex is a currency in the same way as notes or bitcoins. You purchase a good word/interview opportunity from a recruiting partner in exchange for sex with the associate. That’s the way of the world.
