30something Posted December 12, 2001 Share Posted December 12, 2001 Obviously I have some problems of my own, but wanted to try to help someone else. I think you are always taking a risk when you want to date a co-worker. I just don't do it, period. There are so many people out there, why someone you work with? It's Risky, it can be fatel career wise, and do you really want to see that much of someone? But if you must insist.... instead of playing games, just ask her out. Theres no sin in asking. If she says no, your probably better off. If she says yes, theres your answer. Link to post Share on other sites
guy in love w/coworker Posted December 12, 2001 Share Posted December 12, 2001 Well, I know that there are alot of obstacles involved with an inter-office dating relationship. I've never done it before. I'm 35, so I've been in the work place world for quite some time now, and this is the first time I ever seriously wanted to date a co-worker. But living in a small city, in the rural and somewhat backward region of the country that I do, meeting an educated and charming woman with whom I have alot in common is a rare occurance. This co-worker is just such a woman. I don't want to play games either, I have been on the very verge of asking her out a few times, but I just can't get the words to come out of my mouth. In other circumstances, I would simply ask her directly and let the chips fall where they may, but being at work makes it somehow more difficult. Link to post Share on other sites
yes Posted December 12, 2001 Share Posted December 12, 2001 I know a guy who uses the following principle: "if i will regret not asking her out, i go ask" i think it's a good principle, no? it sounds like u'll regret not asking. so ask!! and take it easy if she says no. Good luck Well, I know that there are alot of obstacles involved with an inter-office dating relationship. I've never done it before.
