I agree dumbest excuse EVER to spend time with another woman. Unless they are on the same team and will be promoted AS A team the excuse is ridiculous. Even if she did get promoted, she probably can "pull" him with her, she would get a promotion because she showed she is capable of doing XYX, not because she hung out with Tom, Dick or Harry.
I think he presumes you are "dumb" enough to fall for that kind of BS, because I can't see a guy in his right mind use that excuse to his GF if he knows she is smart.
Thing is, you KNOW it's a stupid excuse, so why are you still with him? He isn't going to stop hanging out with her.

Why on earth would her getting a promotion benefit him?
That's one of the lamest excuses I've ever heard and wouldn't believe it for a second.
