    I have a possibillity to date one of my co-workers. There is definately an attraction between us. But I'm not sure if I wanna mix my business with my pleasure. Or should I just say fuck it, and get my groove on with her. I'm going through a divorce right now, so the last thing on my mind is a serious relationship. I dunno....I would love just to have sex with her, but I'm sure that would just end badly lol!

    One thing i have learned is one thing is work the other is realsionships. Never both, it will cause problems in the end. Im not saying that its like that for everyone but what i do know is. More times it leads to trouble. I go to work and get my shit done. Then i go home and spend quality time with my girl. For me there is no way i can deal with her at my work. Hell i wouldnt expcet her to deal with me at her work. It just creats a new type of drama. If for some reason it goes bad after the good sex. Well that bad part you might have to deal with every fucking day. Me personally i dont want that. If you know what im sayin.

    Edit: As soon as you stick your dick in her shit will happen. work is work, girls are girls. Never mix

    if it's just about "getting it on" i say leave it alone. sounds like trouble in the end.

    I'm going out with one of my coworkers right now, but it is at a grocery store and we are in different departments. we see each other quite a bit, talk a little, and sometimes sneak in a kiss when no one's looking, hehe.

    I prefer making choices on the virtues of the peculiarities of a situation, rather than acting according to pre-conceived ideas.

    I also think work and relationships are inextricably tied.

    hello my little stoned garden gnome.. long time no see.. how you doin doode? Im back Bitches!!! lol.. hey, friendowl is here somewhere.. i havent found him, but Geo said hes here.. lets hunt!!
    as for your question, It depends how far along in your "flirt cycle" youre in.. if youve ben giving eaach other signals for a while, odds are she feels like shed want more than just a fuck buddy. Dude, chicks are weird.. well, most, a woman who just wants a fuck buddy are hard to come by, so i would say you either tell her from the beginning that all you desire is a sexual relationship, or just leave it completely alone. whatever you do dont lead her on.. and i know you are, but remember to be a gentleman about it.. either way. good luck!!

    I used to wor at a Chinese multinational company, I worked in the Financial dept and shw was the receptionist. We started dating and never had any conflict at work mainly because our departments were seperate and we usually only saw each other during lunch. We both left the company, two weeks ago she created a situation where she made me dump her but I still love her !!!

    Don't date someone who can fire you, or who you can fire. It is also better to date outside of your immediate department. I have seen co-workers who have broken up, and most handle it well. There is a small group of people that screw it up for everyone else which sucks.

    So, be aware of company policies and stick to them. It isn't woorth losing a job over.....unless you hate your job or found another one. ;)

    well dating someone you work with is very hard.. cause I work and Pannekoeken.. and I got my bf and the time a job there. and it just make things hard at work. cause when things were ok it was ok. but when things are not good then it does not work at work,, cause you don't have free time to get away... I will never do it again

    Thats not a good idea.. remember this... it may be great at first... but something could go wrong.. and it usually does... then u will see and have to deal with this person every day u work... it happened to me twice now. I am still dealing with the second one. And it sucks.
