Some of you may remember a few posts I've made about a girl I work with. She's friggin' gorgeous to start with, but in the last two days I've witnessed the following:

- Her participating in a discussion on the merits of ASUS & ABIT motherboards.
- Her discussing video cards.
- Just now I saw her cube decorations. Among other things, she has pages from a car calendar. Lamborghinis, Ferrari's, etc.

Not fair!

Oh, I forgot to add...

She's 20, a computer science major, works full time, goes to school, & lives at home with her parents. And stays up all night taking care of her little sister when she's sick. And I've heard her make comments that she wishes she had a husband...

viper, unless you're taken, move in now before someone beats ya to it.

Not officially taken, in fact my pseudo-significant other WANTS to date other people before committing to me... So technically I have every right to date other people, since she intends to.

But...

"Mov(ing) in" is not me. I couldn't do that if my life depended on it. Plus, I'm looking for another job. Then I won't be around her anymore.

And no, the husband comment wasn't directed to me. I was in the cube when she said it, though.

Yeah, she knew I was in the cube. We frequently work around each other, since we have the same job.

As far as me moving, I won't be moving where I live. Just where I work. And I've considered e-mailing her, but I hate to look like a total moron.

Actually Viper, your chances might actually go up considering you're looking for another job. It's been my experience (limited as it is) that coworkers dating is usually not a good idea. As much as the idea of spending ALL your time with someone seems appealing at first, in reality even the perfect human being can start to get really annoying really fast in exremely close contact. Thus, you might want to start feeling your options out now before you switch jobs, then get on to feeling HER options! <wink, wink> ;)


Edit: And anyways, you never know what could happen if you don't try something. Making yourself look like a moron might seem bad at first, but if you don't try anything, you might feel like an even bigger moron later on. I'd say wait until you're about to switch jobs, ask her out, if she says no then there's no worries because you'll be gone anyway and you won't have to worry about the ensuing awkward moments.

I actually thought about that, since she probably gets asked all the time by coworkers. If I'm leaving I won't be a constant threat anymore... I dunno. Knowing me I'm sure I won't do anything about it. I'll probably just leave quietly &amp; never see her again. But I do know her address...

Viper: The fact that your leaving is even better u can ask the girl out and not be dipping you pen in the company ink. Plus if she says no or u brake up you wont have to see her every day.

In this situation, doing nothing is probably the worst thing you can do. But you already knew that, didn't you? ;)

Not necessarily, considering that I'd marry Sarah tomorrow if she was ready. But she's not, she wants to be able to date &amp; be 19 for a while. But I'm still very much committed. Plus I have NO experience in this league, &amp; I'd be so completely &amp; totally lost it wouldn't even be funny.
